Reddit Official App: Trending News and Hot Topics
By reddit
This app is only available on the App Store for iOS devices.
Description
Get the official Reddit app to discover all the top trending topics, breaking news, viral videos, funny jokes and hot memes. The freshest content on the internet brought to you in one app, with infinite scroll, autoplay GIFs, and the fastest-loading interface of any Reddit app.
.-= Thousands of Communities =-.
Looking for news? Check out r/news! Need some funny jokes? Head on to /r/Jokes/ and pack a spare pair of dry pants. Or maybe you’re passionate about cats being scared by cucumbers. We are too, at r/CucumbersScaringCats!
There’s a subreddit for anyone (and everyone) to share, vote and discuss just every topic imaginably.
.-= Your Personal Content Democracy =-.
You can post it, you can share it, and you decide what is hot or not by upvoting and downvoting content. Get the socially curated, constantly updated feed of the news, fun stories, pics, and videos that interest YOU. Or what interests millions of other users on r/popular.
Unlike other social networks, on Reddit you can be yourself with your Reddit profile and persona, disconnected from your real-world identity. So your mom won’t know you’re into /r/knitting.
.-= Un-bore Yourself =-.
Tired of mildly interesting content and monotonous updates on social media feeds? Find the stories and conversations that matter to you. From entertainment news and politics to fun DIY projects and cats (lots of cats) - create your own feed of subreddit subscriptions to never be bored again.

Customer Reviews
Bad experience getting worse
Why is it that when I minimize the app (say, to check a message) then open it again... A thread I had never seen opens? This is an unwanted behaviour, I only want stuff I open, stop shoving these (most likely) promoted content █ the formatting is lacking compared to actual Reddit on web, a lot of icons and formatting appearing as &xxxx; codes leaving you to wonder what ever it might mean █ Reddit Live is terrible if you have slightly slower internet speed: cache empties constantly and loads everything again and again; the feed jumps uncontrollably; not to mention all the crashing because the app has to reload everything again and again, forcing other apps to close because it takes all the memory available! █ There should be a separate option to clear web cache without clearing visiting history, I want to get rid of 100s of MBs of cache, but still want to know what I've visited! █ No way to edit Mulireddits, not renaming, not adding or removing subs from Mulireddits; very lacking
To the mobile PM: Please don't scroll to top by tapping snoo.
Good app, better experience than mobile web, and in a lot of ways better than desktop web.
Really appreciate the different view modes - media gallery is great when looking for stuff to show off to my wife more quickly.
But I hate that tapping the snoo takes to top of page. It keeps happening completely by accident. My left thumb is often at the bottom of the screen, and a slight shift results in scrolling to the top.
Please just rely on the more common design pattern. Just tap top of screen to scroll to the top. With the snoo, I'll accidentally tap and I lose my place, 500 screens down or whatever, and then quit because I don't want to have to scroll back down again.
I suggest optimizing for endless viewing, which is always further down. If you want to allow easy access to the other view options, how about long press on snoo to open menu for hot/new/controversial? It can't be less obscure than the double tap to refresh.
They continue to add "enhancements" that annoy
Update: this app has gotten even worse since I first poster this review. This app is a joke
I can't recommend this app. I went back to it for a while and they just recently changed more stuff that makes me regret going back.
First they flipped stuff around that made it hard if you are right handed.
Now they have made it so that looking through your subbed subreddit is even harder. Next to where you scroll through your subbed subreddits they added a button to pin it to the top of the list. It's extremely easy to hit that after scrolling. You will then have scroll all the way back to the top so that you can unpin it. They removed it alphabetical from the list so you have to go all the way up.
