The option to purchase doesn’t open when clicked

I was going to purchase the premium or whatever it’s called, but I can’t because nothing pops up when I click it.

I can’t even use it because of this, but I’m wondering if this is because of the Reddit api issue.

Great App!

I love this app, it allows me to customize it where I only see my subs, and not get distracted by News, or Popular tabs. Plus, no ads, and the video player actually works. Excellent work to Nick on this!

Paying to unlock all features basically

Yeah by locking off the ability to sign in behind a paywall the core use of Reddit as a place to connect with others about a specific topic is impossible. It’s ultimately just the base Reddit app but worse because of that, which is sort of impressive in its own way.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. I’m a solo developer so I’ve tried to balance paid vs free features while still being able to support development. At the moment it’s just a one time purchase to be able to sign in. Everything else is free. That said I’m always looking at ways to improve the user experience for everyone, including those who wish to use it without unlocking Pro. I’ll keep your feedback in mind!

Outstanding

A great alternative to Apollo.

Far better than the official app

My one complaint, which may be user error, is that there doesn't seem to be an option for editing or deleting a comment.
