Incredible

Absolutely incredible app does everything I want. Thank you for adding the subreddit blocker! Now I can follow Google links to specific posts if researching something but ALL feeds, not just home/popular, are blocked. Exactly what I’ve been wanting.

Doesn’t work

Downloaded it. Immediately had the same issue as before. Total waste of time. Zero stars.

Can’t recommend enough!

Just an amazing application that really polishes using reddit on safari. Most impressively removes ads and promotional content and allows you to really tailor reddit to what you want.

Doesn’t work

I installed this extension and I still get the awful popover on mobile that renders the site unusable. F Reddit but fix your extension too

Usable Reddit

I got tired of the regular Reddit app showing me garbage 24/7. Sink It makes Reddit usable again on iOS. Thank you so much

Appreciation & also Confustion

I really appreciate this app, even though figuring out how to use it was a little confusing at first. Now that I’ve been using it for a few months consistently I’m not really sure what it does. I mean I wasn’t using an app for and so I guess the benefit is that this app doesn’t collect data so that would appeal to people who are replacing sync it for the Reddit app but I’m noticing that Reddit will not let me browse for more than a few minutes without requiring me to login even with Sink It (?)

Nice App

Has a lot of great features that make Reddit web a more pleasant experience

Makes Reddit Tolerable

Can’t even believe Reddit doesn’t have this as part of their site. Puts them to shame.

Seemed promising

But didn’t deliver on some of the most basic features. Namely:
Isn’t automatically redirecting to old.reddit.com
Doesn’t actual set dark most of the time.

I tried but I can’t find value in it

All I want is the dang “download Reddit app” banner gone. It says it does it but it fails to do so. It also is really buggy. It’s just not at all worth it

Fixed (for a short time)

„Use our app“ nag fix was broken for a few days, but is now working again.
Edit: Seems Reddit updated this annoyance again, so currently not usable.

This is the best app for Reddit that you can get if you’re still using Safari!

If you’re trying to avoid the Reddit app nags, you must have this app.

The developers of this app have been constantly battling for years and in the recent months, even more intensely with the Reddit app developers to fight official Reddit apps nags that are happening on Safari more and more frequently.

This is the only app that I’m aware of that can really combat those apps nags and I’m currently in contact with one of the developers to combat yet another persistence and recent app nag that I and a few others are experiencing. Sink It for Reddit Team have done an excellent job of being able to update the app and consistently continue the fight to battle official Reddit app developers.

Doesn’t stop the new “get the app” pop up.

I downloaded this hoping it would prevent the annoying new “get the Reddit app to keep using Reddit” pop up but unfortunately it does not. So I will be deleting it.

Doesn't really improve things

The recently re-appeared nag screen "use our app" (the one thing I definitely won't do) isn't blocked. Maybe an update is necessary. Until then forcing the browser into desktop mode is the only thing that makes reddit usable.

No longer blocks subscribe banner

It used to be great but now it doesn’t block the subscribe banners that prevent scrolling. I hope it can be fixed!

Good app, but several bugs

I prefer using Sink It over the native Reddit app, but there have been a few bugs that have been bothering me:

1. When I return to the app, I can see about 3 posts before it stops allowing me to scroll. This happens when I previously had the app open, but do something else on my phone for a little while before going back into the app.

2. There is now a “View in Reddit” banner at the bottom of the screen every time I open Reddit.

3. Clicking on a picture from the feed will never load the image anymore. This used to be functional until sometime in May I think.

4. Back when I could get the image to load in, I couldn’t pinch to zoom from the main feed without the page being reloaded. This never worked for me.

5. Videos sometimes fail to load from the main feed or even once I click into the post. I think this is mostly YouTube videos.

6. I would like swipe gestures between multiple picture posts. The button is a little small, making it difficult to always press.

Can’t use Reddit without it

Once in a while falls behind Reddit, it great most of the time. I can’t use Reddit without it.

Great to break addiction!

Thanks for adding in my request for the office hours feature. I rely on that heavily. Anyway it could just apply to weekdays? Keep it up!

Getting ads

I tried using the “contact us” link on the website, but it was dead or unreachable. I wanted to notify you with a screenshot that I have from today that I’m seeing ads again. I have a promoted post for a mattress company in my feed. I have the pro or upgraded version of Sink It.

good idea

I like the idea but it still gives the new reddit, thought it would give the old reddit vibes however i was incorrect
