apollo's spiritual successor
amazing on the iphone duo
The Duo support is top notch
Only slightly buggy, but I’m experiencing quite the pain trying to update my own app for Duo and seeing tons of layout bugs, so I’m sure they’ll be fixed in time :)
Nice for iPhone Duo.
Found this app while searching for an app that was already duo compatible, I like it so far. Great design, seems to work well. Thank you!
Great app, need standalone Apple Watch app

A worthy next step.
This is coming together as a fantastic Reddit client with sane choices all around and an immense amount of functionality and customisability.
It’s not Apollo. Christian Selig is a legendary and practically mythical tier of Apple developer, and it was made during a different era of software engineering. Comparisons between them are only natural given the scope, but I wouldn’t focus much on them. In reality, I’m beginning to think Lander is the next best thing after the proverbial Apollo, and, hopefully, soon enough, *the* best. Looking at the progress made in a couple of months, it’s getting there! Sometimes, Lander can be a little rough around the edges or buggy, if not for the lack of ambition; after all, it’s one developer. But the developer respects you as a user and listens eagerly to your feedback, always quick to fix issues and address questions, which all but makes up for any minor animation glitch or random bug. I’m leaving it at 5 stars because I truly do believe that this is a great app made by a great developer. I believe as time goes on, a review like mine will condense more and more down to “A great app, by a great dev.”

iPad support still lacking
While in many ways it’s a great client there are some formatting and display issues that persist on the iPad. Despite reporting the bug several times this still hasn’t been fixed. On the iPhone no such issues so if you’re on an iPhone it’s a close to five star experience.
A very nice Reddit app alternative
Incredibly nice app overall, some random stutters when swiping around, but it’s a really well made and fleshed out with tons of customization!
Great start with some issues
Great to have a native app that works well. Two issues I found are: scrolling comments is super laggy and the home feed seems to show the same stories after refresh (unlike the website).
Stay away. Feels like AI slop, privacy claims don’t make any sense
It’s free and kinda works to scroll through subs a bit. But there are many broken things and their updates are not helping. To name a few: Scrolling is rather unresponsive, the video UX is horrible, stuff can’t be copied from comments, opening search results crashes the app, picture posts above a certain height are being cropped on the top and bottom, links can’t be checked/copied before opening. With each update, new things break. The claims regarding privacy don’t make any sense too. If one signs in with an account, there’s no way to protect against tracking or so.

Awesome App
Thanks for working on it and keeping it free.
Nice
This is way better than the official Reddit app. The customization is deep, including themes, text size, density, spacing, and even comment transitions, so it actually feels like your own app instead of a generic template. Multi-column browsing on iPad is great for reading side by side, and media viewing like galleries, GIFs, and videos is smooth. Managing messages and the mod queue without switching apps is a nice bonus if you moderate anything.

Great but seems to show the same stories
Great but seems to show the same stories over and over again. Also needs an option to hide story images by default.
Almost great
Would love to give this a good review, but there's a major bug I've encountered: when you search for a subreddit and click on it, the app crashes.
Fantastic app
It looks great, it runs smooth and best of all it doesn’t lock features behind a paywall. I will definitely be supporting this dev. One problem I have noticed though is that videos and gifs currently do not autoplay in the feed and when I click on a video it plays audio even though I have the setting for videos to be muted as default. Hopefully this is something the dev can look into.
Also, please give us the option to disable inbox replies to comments. I know we can turn off notifications and the inbox as a whole on the app but when I log into reddit on my PC my account is flooded with those red comment notifications saying someone has replied. Not a fan of those.
Edit: I’ve used this for about a week now and I cannot find anyway to submit feedback to the dev so I’ll do it here and hope that he sees it.
-Scrolling down from home to search brings up the keyboard so you can start typing straight away, but when you select search from the floating bar at the bottom it doesn’t. So you have to select the search bar before you start typing.
-when I search for a subreddit in the communities tab of search and I select it, the app will often just hard crash.
-The app can sometimes hang randomly. Like I’ll go to a sub and try to scroll down but the feed doesn’t move. It’s not till I go to another page like my profile then back to home does it allow me to start scrolling.
-having a way to have the app automatically open when you open reddit in Safari would be fantastic

Awesome app!
I’ve been using this app as a replacement for Narwhal.. which I’ve used forever.. and have been very impressed. The few bugs I’ve encountered have been fixed with quick app updates… so it’s actively being developed. If you’re looking for a replacement for the awful Reddit app, take this one out for a spin. It’s free and runs on donations.

Want to like it
I really want to like it, but it behaves oddly. For example, it’s difficult to tap on a post in a list without accidentally tapping on the OP’s name (which is also a link to their profile); pulling down to refresh actually invokes the search bar. The first is just annoying while the second attempts to rewrite years of muscle memory and a Reddit client just doesn’t carry enough clout for that.

Excellent app!
Everything is working well, lots of customisation possibilities. Best Reddit app I’ve used so far!
Great alternative to the default app!
It’s come a long way and ready to be your new Reddit client.
gorgeous
i love it! i only wish i could make the feed full screen like i can do with comments (not a fan of mandatory two column layout). it's visually the most beautiful reddit app (really any social media app) i've ever seen, and as an artist, wow! stunning default colors. sleek and readable, the one thing i mentioned i want is the *only* such thing, tho ofc its day one of using it. really, really nice app!
