Tons of bugs
I appreciate the fact that it’s free and works well for the most part. FINALLY a free Reddit client on the App Store. I used to be a fan of Apollo but moved to narwhal. I became very sick of paying 4 bucks a month to browse Reddit. Found hydra and after the recent updates, it works perfectly for me.
I’m sick of every app on the iPhone requiring payment or a subscription. Thankful hydra doesn’t have that issue YET.

Best reddit app on iOS
This is easily my favorite Reddit client on iOS. The developer is incredibly responsive and active, and the user interface is beautifully slick and smooth.
Great app, reliability concerns
Hydra is a great app with many of the features missing from the official client, but it still needs a lot of polish. The media player is excellent, although about a third of videos fail to load properly. Gallery mode is also very stuttery, even on a powerful phone like the iPhone 17 Pro Max. There’s definitely a lot of room for optimization, but I understand that the development team is small, possibly even just one developer. That makes the app all the more impressive, and Hydra Pro is definitely worth it.

Coloque idioma português e se poder colocar uma função onde ativa liquid glass na aba de baixo ficaria muito bom e moderno.
Great alternative to Reddit app
Been looking for a new Reddit app since Apollo has been gone. The official Reddit app has too much junk, this is a perfect alternative.
Not a great app.
Any redit app that doesn’t have. Away to post images is a 1 star for me.
New to the App
I'm new to the app but these are the things immediately bothering me:
"Hide posts you've seen" doesn't actually do that. Not being able to vote on posts without having to pull a menu up or open the post and when you click on a new subreddit not being sure if I am subscribed to it until I hit the three dots in the corner.

5 stars because I love the app
Can’t submit comments lately though. Just throws “Failed to submit comment”. I’ve logged out and in, restarted, tried different networks. I assume it’s some Reddit limiting verification going on, not specific to Hydra.
What are you doing devs?
Every update they make this app worse and worse. LEAVE IT ALONE OR GET A NEW DEV TEAM. App is absolutely abysmal now. Scroll to fast, crash. Quickly close out of a post, crash. Search for something, you guessed it, crash. Used to be enjoyable before. Now it's just garbage.
One of my favorite apps
Best way to experience reddit and I find the pro subscription worth it. Gallery mode is awesome and the filtering out options are great. There’s also so much customization. Hydra puts all other reddit apps to shame
Slopification continues
Charging people to download videos? No thanks. This app is a vibe coded disaster.
Downloading videos with audio only with a subscription. What a joke
Downloading videos with audio only with a subscription. What a joke?! Seriously??? What is this? Will go back to Apollo.
Just go for it you won’t regret it
No ads, intuitive, and flexible
This app is the only reason I still use Reddit
Great app, I don't think you even have to be signed in to use it - I wasn't for a while because it was just nice to not need to use the browser version of Reddit and even the browser version is better than the official app! This app is great
Pretty good
This is definitely better than the awful official reddit app, but recent changes have made videos restart when going full screen and they take forever to load, which is pretty annoying. Stuff also sometimes is slow to load in general, but perhaps that’s Reddit’s API? Overall recommend
Very good Reddit client
It’s a good Reddit client with cool features like gallery mode. Loading the feed however is a little on the slower side and saved videos don’t have audio.
Elegant and always improving
Nothing out there compares to the simplicity and elegance Hydra offers. It feels natively Apple. The dev team is actively involved in making this the premier Reddit experience with frequent updates. Love it!
Still Missing Some Features
The app is basically good, and can be configured to act a lot like Apollo did back in its prime. The one glaring omission is that you still can’t set videos/GIFs to play muted by default. You have to manage the volume on your device, rather than just allowing audio when something that requires it comes along. It’s very clumsy and disruptive for an app that is otherwise a pretty decent browsing experience.

Not it
Doesn't work. Subreddits literally just missing posts
Doesn’t load anything
Won’t load a single post, feed, or sub. Is this app decommissioned or something?
