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.

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

Filter by keyword

The ability to mute by keyword is amazing. Wonderful app. Finally the 20% of Reddit trash is quiet which lets me enjoy the rest

Infinitely better than stock app/website

iOS Reddit app sucks. I don’t want to pay subscription to narwhal. I’ve used this for months now and have happily donated to the devs. Quality of life improvements are massive. Thank you so so much

Excellent!

If you use a browser to Reddit, Sink It is an absolute must-have. It will improve the quality of your life.

Almost perfect RES replacement

It’s like 90% there for me, it just needs a better dark mode theme. I use it on desktop and the contrast between the background and the text is too much on an oled screen.

Just use Reddit on the web

Forget all those finicky Reddit apps with subscription fees. Ditch the official app with the endless ads for St*te F*rm. You have a full browser called Safari. Use it to browse Reddit with this well thought out extension.

I REALLY want to like this, but the Back button bug is brutal!

If the dev can fix this would be near perfection. But the back button not returning you to the previous page is a hard problem to ignore. I pray it’s fixed soon as I want to give this a 5 star

Needs update

Reddit updated their site so now the app is not functioning correctly. Opening any link or returning to any feed opens up your user settings which has to be dismissed every single time. Also safari reloads often while you are scrolling or watching a video, causing you to have to restart.

Simple easy free

The actual Reddit app is garbage. And forces you to login for just browsing. This is the solution

Recent misses

Great app overall. There have been recent changes that have snuck ads through, though

Doesn’t work most of the time

Title

This extension has literally never worked

I’ve asked on reddit and never got support. This extension does nothing.

Legends

Thank you for TIRELESS updates, just CONSTANT as y’all battle the marketers and pencil pushers ensheeteefying the company - thank you for a better reddit
