Used to be great

Now its trash. Browser is not functional.

Amazing until latest update

I always used to be able to tap to close an image, now I have to press on an X at the top left of the screen. Totally ruining my Reddit experience. Will probably switch to another app.

New update

I really hate the changes they made with the new update. Its slower, you have to tap the x to close the image instead of just tapping the image itself, they also changed the font... I used to like this app, now Im thinking of switching to something better.

From good to bad

Was fine until update. Now opens external links in Safari, have to close pics with X? Wtf? Now I want to find something different.

Readability?

Just why? It always fails to open up links. Not once has a linked work that has been powered by readability. Everything else is great but readability ruins the app.

Readability?

What the hell is readability? The last thing readability lets you do is read the link you clicked on. That addition to the app is a mess. Go back to what was there before.

BaconReader

Lovely app. Few crashes. Would recommend to a friend. That rhymes.

Bacon Read used to be my favorite

This app used to work like a charm for Reddit, but it seems like its slowly dying. It has problems loading a lot of the web content and crashes all the time on my 5s. Plus recently there has been this error telling me I am posting too many comments when I havent even posted one. Fix it up and Ill fix the rating.

Awesome update.

What a feature packed update! The gesture support is so amazing!

Another step backwards

NSFW Filter has not been brought back and now going back from a fullscreen pic you have to press the X at the top instead of just tapping the pic to close. The new in app browser is neat but is a bit slow

Dont like the font

New font is annoying. Everything else is great.

Bring back the option for tapping to close pictures.

Who is the genius who thought tapping was harder than swiping?

Good before

I hate your most recent update around 6/3/16. It used to be easy to go in and out of pictures and gifs by just tapping anywhere, but now i have to tap in the far upper left corner. The change in font isnt the best either. Didnt bother to see what else changed because it was ruined enough. Would have been 4-5 stars if you kept it the way it was.

Easiest and Smoothest Reddit App

The most user friendly and comprehensive app for a Reddit client.

Huge imp. Love swipe up to hide full screen images

Seems way faster and love the 3D Touch, but wish it would on whole post line for left handed hold. For the whiners about not being able to tap to get out of full screen image view, just swipe up. This is actually way better because you dont drop out of the middle of a long galled by mistake so easily anymore.

Terrible update

Why on earth would you make it so you have to tap the tiny x in the top corner to close out of pictures instead of tapping anywhere like before?

New update is frustrating

Before update you could close images and gifs with as tap. Now you have to push an"x" in the top left corner so you can no longer use this app one handed. I have a one year old and I liked the ease of use.

Bad update

I dont get why you had to change the font. Its very bad, I didnt feel like reading anything at all, and closed the app immediately to write this review. Ive been a fan of your app for a very long time, and I dont want this update to change that for me. Please revert the changes.

Awesome

Awesome app! It keeps me entertained for hours!!!

New font has terrible spacing!

The kerning of the new font is absolutely awful, and a headache to read. The removal of the tap to close an image feature is a pain as well.
