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?
Even better than Apollo?
Hydra is very similar to Apollo, but has an improved gallery mode and doesn’t require using a Reddit API. Happy to support with the Pro membership, but also great without.
They don’t use the official API, so I think there is a possibility that Reddit will update something that breaks Hydra. It’s been going strong since launch though, and I don’t notice any slowdowns compared to apps that use the (expensive) API.

Excellent

Wer Apollo vermisst…
wird hier glücklich!
Best Reddit option by far
Reminiscent of Apollo. Easy to navigate, intuitive. The ONLY thing it’s missing is that if you accidentally (or not) swipe from your feed back to list of subreddits and try to swipe back, the feed starts back over rather than from where you left off. But you can set it to hide posts you e already seen so it’s close. 5/5 app even without that feature.

Fantastic Reddit client!!
I love how fluid hydra is. It is worth using for the gallery mode alone!
Nothing Loads
Nothing loads. Not home, not popular, not all, not any search. Nothing but the settings. Disappointing.
Great App
Great app - probably better than Apollo.
I really love the app I just would like it more if
It would mix up what it shows on the home feed more from different subs
Good in principle.
I like the idea behind it. It reminds of Apollo in some ways, especially the swipe gestures of course.
But it lacks all of the polish. It hangs, crashes, bugs out, resets my progress in scrolling through comments and home feed. And none of these things happen rarely. They happen every time I open the app. I really enjoy the rest of the time, but it makes it very hard to enjoy using it.

Way better than the official Reddit App
Awesome alternative to the official Reddit App. Strong Apollo vibes, with this one.
Gut, alle Funktionen vorhanden
Schön gemacht, vergleichsweise übersichtlich, mit dem eigenen Account kann man sich gut einloggen, bisher keine Probleme gehabt. Empfehlung.
Thank you
Apps like this is what made the internet great.
