Reddit Premium is an optional paid upgrade. How do upvotes and karma work? Instead of likes and hearts, Reddit runs on upvotes and downvotes. Voting raises or lowers a post's visibility, so relevant, high-quality posts rise to the top while low-effort ones fade out. Voting also affects karma, a running score tied to your posts and comments. Karma doesn't limit what you can do, but more of it can help your posts get noticed, and some communities ask for a little karma before you post or comment to help keep out spam. Reddit Premium: Purchase Reddit Premium to enjoy an ads-free experience and access to premium avatar gear, r/lounge, custom app icons, and more. Payment will be charged on a recurring monthly or annual basis to your Apple account. Your monthly or annual Premium subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel at least 24 hours before your subscription ends. Cancel anytime in your device's Account Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Reddit at 4.8 against Taro's 1.0. Reddit also leads on ratings volume (3.5M vs 1) and review sentiment (25% vs 0%). Taro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Reddit sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Taro asks for nothing beyond the download.
Reddit holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reddit has 3.5M ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of Reddit's written reviews are positive against 0% of Taro's.
Reddit ships an update every 5 days, Taro every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 15, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
