Searching the same term on Reddit vanilla app vs ReddPlanet shows you where ReddPlanet weakness come. Searching is only good if you’re looking for subreddits or users. Otherwise the search tab is simply useless and would rarely bring up interesting relevant results. Also the amount repeated posts that will show is absolutely unimaginable. 2-Home page refreshing doesn’t generate new posts, but shows the same posts. In vanilla Reddit after I’ve gone a long way down I would go back up and refresh and I’d have new content to look at. This isn’t present as of now in this app. Refreshing doesn’t generate any new content, but shows the same content. The only way to refresh content is to change the posts type you’re looking at and that doesn’t generate good posts at all and isn’t a fix one bit. I hope these issues presented would get fixed as they’re the only ones I’ve found worth mentioning. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. The app uses Reddit’s search api. If you could provide some feedback on r/ReddPlanet regarding what you might be encountering, I can definitely take a look. As for refreshing the home feed, unfortunately the home feed as shown in the official app isn’t supported for 3rd party apps. I’d love to implement the same feed, but it’s not publicly available to any developers except the official app. The moment they open up that functionality for others, I will be adding it. ### 4/5 — Almost perfect. *2022-11-18, version 1.26.0* I already switched from Apollo. But one MASSIVE thing this app needs is the ability to see what your replying to while composing a reply. This is really my only issue so far. It’s very difficult to compose longer comments with multiple quotes when you can’t see what it is your commenting on. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I’ll get this changed for the next update. ### 5/5 — My jaw literally dropped *2022-11-16, version 1.25.2* My jaw literally dropped when I seen the feature that automatically creates an Imgur link for you to post images in the comments, also the way you can preview your comments, such a goated app. Two features I would add though is a reader mode in the built in browser and having the profile pics/avatars show up in the comments! Other than that it’s pretty much THE perfect Reddit app, forget about Apollo and it’s outdated design language (no offense to the developer but it’s just my opinion) ### 5/5 — Best Reddit APP. *2022-10-26, version 1.24.7* Blows Apollo away in al respects IMO. ### 5/5 — First rate app *2022-10-22, version 1.23.2* A great alternative to Apollo. ### 5/5 — Great app for prior Boost users coming from Android *2022-10-19, version 1.23.2* I just switched to iPhone from the pixel series and while on Android I used boost for Reddit but with it not being available on iOS ReddPlanet has been a very easy and familiar feeling transition from android to iOS in regard to Reddit. ### 5/5 — Top notch, 100% ad free. *2022-09-25, version 1.22.0* Thanks for the ad removal options. Please never change that. App is overall clean and intuitive to use. Integrated video saving/downloading is a very nice touch. If I had the money, I’d buy premium right now. A couple features i think would make good additions- More robust filters. Id like to be able to hide bots like automod, Shakespeare bot, etc. Adjustable thumbnail and image cache storage size. Adjustable Video/image auto load threshold. (Ex. Only auto load videos under 25mb) Option to hide awards, subreddit header, title, username, votes, post content, images, videos, etc. in browsing view. For many of my feeds/subreddits, I don’t need a title or any other information the browsing view. Once I tap the post to open it, it’s nice to see all that, otherwise much of it is useless. Either an option to toggle those things either globally or as an addition to the custom feed feature would be awesome. Thanks again! Keep up the great work. ### 5/5 — Best Reddit alternate app *2022-09-21, version 1.21.0* Closest experience to the stock Reddit app without the added bloat and crap that Reddit loves to add. Excellent work and ad free without any purchases! Please don’t change it ### 5/5 — Responsive developer and beautiful app *2022-09-21, version 1.21.0* The developer is very active on the subreddit, he was a really polite person who is patient with his time and helps when experiencing issues a lot; I also think the layout of the app is really pretty. Awesome work! ### 5/5 — This is the one! *2022-09-18, version 1.21.0* I’ve probably installed 10 different Reddit clients so far and this one was the best for me. Coming from Slide, needed something that was in active development, without basic features locked behind paywalls. This app is super smooth and looks really good too. ### 5/5 — I don’t get why Apollo is number 1 if it isn’t nearly as modern as this? *2022-09-15, version 1.20.3* This app just HAS it. Download videos, much faster and responsive, and it’s so sleek that it feels more like what you expect for the modern app. ### 4/5 — Just missing one BIG thing *2022-09-07, version 1.19.0* Many comparisons to Apollo. So far it’s a worthy foe in my opinion. But it’s missing one thing Apollo has. All these gifs that have sound/audio that the original Reddit app can’t play that Apollo can (and play right within the app as an embedded player). That’s a big deal. Add this feature and you can take Apollo down. Right now it’s just like Reddit where the video plays with no audio. Until this is added I’ll be primarily using Apollo till then. **Developer response:** The next update will be adding audio for some gifs that did not play the audio prior. It will be available in version 1.20.0. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No swipe between posts :( *2023-01-04, version 1.29.0* Only if there was swiping between posts, this would be a awesome app! ### 1/5 — Had paid for pro to support the app and now it goes subscription 😡 *2022-10-25, version 1.24.7* I hate how developers force subscriptions even for past users who paid. I didn’t need pro, but was happy to pay to support the developer. How the new features are behind a subscription 👎 ### 1/5 — App keeps crashing *2022-04-21, version 1.6.0* I added a second account and the app won't open. Please fix that. Also is this app open source?! Why isn't the Reddit chat feature available?! ### 1/5 — No Audio on Videos *2022-04-13, version 1.6.0* ReddPlanet does NOT have an option to play audio on videos, thus EVERY video on this Client comes muted. Additionally, Subreddits occasionally have a very tough time loading, if loading at all. ### 2/5 — Please please add swipe posts *2023-01-27, version 1.32.1* Great app but swipe between posts is missing! Would be a gamec changing reddit browser if it had this feature! ### 2/5 — Not great *2023-01-01, version 1.28.0* Auto jump glitches back to the top of subreddit all the time. Easily swipes to Home if you’re browsing all or popular, then you have to reload all or popular and it doesn’t remember where you were so it starts you at top again. It makes me use Reddit less which is probably good though. ### 3/5 — Crashing *2022-10-17, version 1.23.2* Would be five stars but my app keeps crashing now when I scroll a little bit through my home page subreddits (media gallery mode) ### 4/5 — PLEASE ADD KEYBOARD SUPPORT *2023-04-20* First off for those looking at this app = Get it. This is an awesome app the dev works very hard on and is totally worth it. Now for my gripes: Rocking the new multi-column version and like it, but the glaring omission is the ability to arrow key UP or Down the article is annoying. Another awesome update would be to not link-out everything in column one… clicking on a article and instead getting a user or subreddit in also annoying. My third ask would to add a suggestion link in the settings of the app to sent rants like this :) ### 4/5 — It’s the best alternative to slide *2023-03-31* Slide for Reddit is now no longer being developed. This is the best alternative since they don’t collect data and have a robust app. The second they start collecting *any* data I will stop using (looking at you Apollo) but until then this is the best Reddit app out there. ### 4/5 — Doesn’t work with Sign in with Apple *2023-02-15, version 1.35.0* It looks great but sadly I cannot use this until Sign in with Apple is added ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — My favorite Reddit app on iOS *2023-06-05* The developer of this app is incredible. He's been super responsive on the subreddit, and he has also implemented all of my feature requests. I'm really hoping the pushback regarding the upcoming changes to the API will save the third party app ecosystem, because if these apps are killed off, I will stop using Reddit. ### 5/5 — Great Reddit client *2023-05-04* I'm so pleased to stumble upon this. I've been using Apollo, which is also awesome, but found this while looking at the options available. ReddPlanet was my Reddit client app of choice on Win10(and Win10 mobile). Loved it then and still enjoy using it. Thanks. ### 5/5 — Best iOS Reddit app I’ve tried! *2023-03-24* What the title says. Great stuff, thank you! A couple pieces of feedback: • They might be cheesy, but I would really like the option to display user avatars. They help me follow conversations easier, even more so than comment lines do. • On a similar “ease of navigation” note: if the subreddit banners were a just little less transparent/white, it would help speed recognition of where I am. • I would love the ability to set autoplay ON for gifs but OFF for videos. Not sure if this is doable with reddit’s API, though. Overall I’m a very happy subscriber after just one day of testing this app out. Thanks again! ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2023-03-17* Thanks to the developer, I was able to get signed in and enjoy this application. It’s providing a great Reddit experience and I’m enjoying using it. My original review: That’s it, really. Can’t sign in. The app goes through the entire login flow and authenticates, but never acknowledges that I’ve logged in. **Developer response:** There is a currently an issue on Reddit’s end with their login flow. Until they fix it, the best workaround is to spam the “approve” button after entering your password. Hopefully they get it fixed soon. ### 5/5 — The Best so far! *2023-02-01, version 1.33.0* I’ve jumped around to various Reddit apps such as the default Reddit App, Apollo, Narwal, and Slide. I eventually kept with Slide because I loved the interface, but sadly the developer has since abandoned the project and overtime it’s been getting buggy. I knew eventually I would have to find another app. In search of a new ship to swim to as Slide slowly sinks into the abyss, I found RedPlanet. From the moment I logged into the app, I could tell this app was for me. Images and videos load nearly instant and videos have super responsive controls. Reddit pages, favorite subs, and custom feeds are laid out in the side bar in a way that just makes sense. And the developer is super active with the community and pushes out continual improvements. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Great Quality Videos *2023-01-30, version 1.32.1* Saves the highest quality videos out of other apps ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2023-01-28, version 1.32.1* Great all around app with a super engaged developer pushing out regular updates. Feels quite a bit faster than other Reddit apps, just a smooth and intuitive experience to use. ### 5/5 — Genuine Ad-Free Reddit *2023-01-27, version 1.32.1* Switched from Apollo after they implemented ads for Pro Users. ReddPlanet let’s you toggle them off even in the free version, but picked it up anyway for the themes. Does everything I want and feels great to use. ### 5/5 — Bye Apollo *2023-01-15, version 1.31.0* This app hasn’t once begged me for $45 like after already paying like trash-tier Apollo. Feature-wise can’t think of anything I’m missing and the themes are pretty rad. ReddPlanet has replaced Apollo perfectly. Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Best client *2023-01-04, version 1.29.0* Tried Apollo for a bit but didn’t really like how it look. Then I tried Slide which was much better but got abandoned by the developer. Saw Redditors say this app was very similar and I like this one better. Only things I hope get added is being able to search in saved posts like in Apollo and being able to see saved comments. More people need to try this app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
