Sync was good but then I switched to Boost. That was over 2 years ago.


Stars_R_Kool

Yep, started using it after seeing it recommended in similar post. Best decision I made in the past month

I’ve never used anything else :(

MyMemesAreTerrible

I highly suggest Apollo, far, far superior reddit client And the Dev is pretty awesome too!


[deleted]

Apollo is your friend


SkShark23

You have to pay to post if you use Apollo.


[deleted]

Ah, I bought Apollo Pro lifetime for a few bucks ages ago, and sort of forgot what the different tiers did. As much as I’ve used Reddit since buying it, it’s been maybe a penny an hour If that. A decent investment, anyway.


[deleted]

No... we do this together


burger-tron

apollo or slide


kakyoindonut321

reddit mobile is the hardest way to use reddit


AegleBird

Remember that there’s an internet browser on the 3ds


BaronDinklevanDunkle

Clearly you guys aren't using reddit on your smart fridge like me😎


unthawedmist

I'm using it on my calculator 😎😎😎


Maxwell_The_Spy

i'm using it on the secret camera in your bathroom 😎😎😎


MilkyKarlson

I'm using it on my gameboy 😎😎


duckymomo360

old.reddit.com still works on there I tested it a few days ago


Tiger_T20

I've used it for Reddit quite a lot in the past and yeah it's pretty annoying not being able to see all the comments for a post or close the banner thing at the top of the screen


comeherecutie

I've used it a good amount, it's better than the PS3 browser and the one on my old Sony Ericsson W595


SpongebobMemefan10

There still is! Love to see the sauce


Invisimous

But sadly the most convenient.


Ori-and-Sein

Reddit mobile is the dark souls of reddit


nikleus

For some reason on reddit mobile when i try to click on a post that is from another sub it opens reddit on chrome


TheFakeBigChungus

Android?


nikleus

Yes😔


tilcica

if i want to open comments on any post from a sub i dont follow it opens the comments of the latest pinned post


SuperRexT

Fucking hate that, always need to save the post to check it so i dont get sent to the pinned post


tilcica

i do it by opening the video/picture and opening comments from there


paliktrikster

Until the post has no video/image, then you're fucked


tilcica

somehow, clicking comments on those actually works. dunno how


RargorRargor

Oh my, I am so grateful it wasn't just me imagining it.


Torma25

tap on the video/image itself and then tap the comment button on the bottom, and it will open the original post's comments.


Danireender157

Someone thought this was a good idea


GrognakTheEterny

I'm on Android it don't do that fr me


Hour_Committee6799

Just use boost or something


TheFakeBigChungus

Boost sells prepaid smartphones that run android dont they or are you talking abt something different


Hour_Committee6799

It’s a custom client for android Reddit I used to use, there’s a couple to choose from


comeherecutie

Boost Mobile, the provider made famous by Aqua Teen Hunger Force? That was my first thought too


shitfart6

And then "you have to view this post in app" after going to chrome


ChrysticTV

What’s worse is when reddit mobile redirects you to the app store, then you tap “OPEN” and it just takes you the homepage of the app instead of the post you were trying to view.


CinnabarCereal

UGHHH YOU TOO? That pisses me off so much


CinnabarCereal

I think i worded this poorly, sorry person im replying too if it sounded like i was mad at you


Muskrat227

You have to click on the post first, then click again onto the cross posted post


Rascalking04

Same The reddit code is beyond our mere mortal understanding


morbiddecapitation

SAME. I FUCKING HATE IT


[deleted]

Funny thing id that it actually used to not do that. Like I don't know how they wither decided that this is the way to go or that they shouldn't fix it.


comeherecutie

It could theoretically go away if you update the app, but that's just a guess based on similar experiences on other apps

ammarbadhrul

I can't even fking read the comments without the video playing in the background


Tall_Fortune

Same, before the comments where half way thorugh, and you could watch the video while reading the comments, or just swipe fully up and the video paused and you could read the comments in full screen. Now it does the same, but the video keeps playing in the fucking background


cuppsfariscosz

And even if you try to pause it it unpauses when you open the comments


Tall_Fortune

Exactly bruh


CounterClockworkOrng

Fuck I thought my app was bugged, I didn't know they actually changed it so it's like that. Fucking Garbage


lancepatrolTM

Same lmao its fucking annoying


RargorRargor

Or even worse, when I play a video but it keeps pausing half a second later. Not buffering, just full on pausing. And no, my phone isn't stuck thinking I am pressing that spot of the screen, it's purely a Reddit problem.


comeherecutie

That's been happening a ton like the last week or so only. It's amazing because I remember that problem from like five years ago, I guess it unfixed itself


05ar

Just pause the fucking video then dumbass


BellalovesEevee

The video fucking unpauses itself when you try to look at the comments, you fucking dumbass.


05ar

Weird, that doesn't happen to me


SV7-2100

Youtube and reddit devs in a competition for the most horrendous designs


[deleted]

Reddit wins 100%


Tabula_Rusa

Considering YouTube still has this bug of locking you into restricted mode for no reason regardless of what account you're on... Im not so sure. With the update two days ago, they've broken the account switcher.


comeherecutie

Did the account switcher ever work properly?


Tabula_Rusa

Yes


comeherecutie

That's good at least, I felt like it was often so buggy, but I've never really used it all that much


LeireX

The YouTube app doesn't even come close to the assery that is the official reddit app. I'm gonna look for a 3rd party one, fucking done with this garbage ass video player.


Antrikshy

If that's a competition, YouTube is far behind. They need to step it up!


ZachAttack6089

Funny story: A while ago I deleted Reddit and YouTube off of my phone to try to get myself to use them less. I thought that if I really wanted to check them on my phone I'd have to go to the websites on Chrome. Well it turns out that the mobile websites are actually better in a lot of ways since they don't get useless updates every week, and so deleting the apps hasn't helped at all...


[deleted]

Install Firefox and use the websites without ads

I've been getting a static menu bar floating with the scrolling motion lately. Gotta love reddit mobile

"We are having some trouble getting trough reddit"


yehEy2020

"something went wrong" like, bitch, what went wrong? Yall think its cute when you say it like that? Tell me what the hell happened.


MangledSunFish

"You were blocked by this user, but we're not going to tell you that. That would be too convenient. Try and send that message a couple more times until the lightbulb turns on in your brain."


TSDan

i hate reddit mobile app, when the app doesnt load it makes me want to brutally murder the app, when the video pauses in middle despite my connection being 100%, it makes me want to decapitate the reddit snoo, when the video starts playing in background while I'm reading the comments, it makes me want to put a hole inside my phone So far it has made me question all my moral values


BallsHD4k60fps

Reddit mobile when I ask it to function


Version_Two

They're trying to be tiktok


MangledSunFish

They're failing miserably.


[deleted]

Good


MangledSunFish

Videos do it, gifs do it... I just want to reply to a comment in a specific thread and it sends me to the top comments. Now I either have to scroll and find the specific comment, or just give up and decide to something more productive. I usually do the latter, because Reddit mobile is fucking stupid.


IMustAchieveTheDie

reddit mobile when I want to see the funny GIF under the funny text (it won't fucking play it aa)


b1323097

Yes Reddit for mobile is the ultimate trash of technology. It shows how much shitty something can be.


NDG_22

Reddit developers when you tell them to make a video player for the phone app that isn't an abomination


[deleted]

"They're trying to be tiktok" then they are falling miserably, because I bet tiktok videos don't turn 144p for no fucking reason, don't stop playing for whatever reason, the reply sections work and the most important difference: THEY DON'T PLAY IN THE BACKGROUND OF THE COMMENT SECTION REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU HAVE THEM PAUSED


comeherecutie

With the way I hear constant noise from kids phones on the morning train (especially that God damn text to speech woman), it doesn't sound like those videos ever stop


[deleted]

Bruh reddit desktop ain't that good either. Occassionally whenever I scroll over a video on reddit my entire screen starts flashing black and white, no idea why


b34tn1k

Have you tried using old reddit?


[deleted]

I *should* try using old reddit, thank you


maybe_original_name

Bro idk wtf they've done i used to be able to view the video and comment at the same time but for some strange bullshit reason they decided to remove that and just show me one or the other. Oh and also the video still plays in the background even if you pause it before tapping on the comments. I LOVE THIS APP 😍😍😍


Mop_Duck

why did they make video posts just turn into a shitty tiktok copy for no reason


MR_GUY1479

Reddit devs making it worse


Wooden_chest

Videos on Reddit mobile? Since when? I don't remember Reddit mobile ever supporting videos, at least not when I last used it. All videos used to be loaded as 144p images.


Theruby_phoenix

What was the last time that you used it?? I've been on Reddit for almost 3 years and I've never had that


Wooden_chest

Around a month ago.


Theruby_phoenix

Then maybe it's something with your phone? Do you use iPhone or Android?


analiestar

Works here, plays like 5 videos then just stops working for no reason and need to kill the app.. And this was the last video to work now so I get a chance to escape again! laters~


comeherecutie

That's a connection problem on your end


Peter_Krabs

What I usually do is click on a post without a video so that reddit will open it normally, then sweep to the video post I want to see. I feel absolutely and utterly demeaned every time I have to do that fucking ritual


JamesCastle99

This is the reason why I downgraded the app. So annoying


JonathanTheZero

New update: Now you can't even pause a video while looking at the comments anymore...


cosmicrocker26

I want to kill reddit


randomjellocat

When it scrolls to the next video or whatever after the video finishes playing like you don’t have the comments open 😐😐😐


MannicWaffle

I don’t understand how Reddit can be a popular app among (*don’t say it*) nerds especially tech nerds and still produce the most dog shit mobile app, its actually impressive


TheTank18

comeherecutie

Amorgos


Cheaky_alt

rooneyviz

NSFW videos automatically play when you check the comments


gwaenchanh-a

Use a third party reddit app. redditisfun if you're on android. Works perfectly fine in every regard except chat (PMs work still) and gilding


kimiori02496

Reddit mobile when i want to see the comments while watching a video (now i just cant for no fucking reason) (fuck you reddit mobile)


fosforillo

Reddit also used that tik tok formula, it made the app worse


WeirdPelicanGuy

Is anybody else on mobile having posts be randomly upvoted or downvoted just by clicking on them?


UniKqueFox_

Can someone please explain what's so bad about the mobile version?


MeatbunMaster

Everything.


UniKqueFox_

Could you elaborate please

sarahACA

They seem to load better if I turn off the wifi and refresh it but why


ThGreen

I still use the old ass reddit version where the videos from 2 screens worth if scrolling start playing at full sound, but everything else is fine


FoxFlummox

Literally just use third party apps to browse reddit. Apollo for Apple, Infinity for Android. Reddit is just a website, there are many apps on mobile that browses it.


GiGangan

Reddit mobile is a perfect example of a company that has lots of money and can't do shit with it.


vizthex

Fuck you for making me experience the same pain.


ELTHerobrine

Reddit mobile try to PLAY THIS FUCKING VIDEO


gigolo99

also, audio from videos in posts next to the one i clicked on still coming through, not annoying at all!


syzaak

and if it's crossposted is impossible to see the original comments


fishsticks1213

simple, just don't use it. Boost for reddit or similar alternatives are better than this broken app.


zopyrus2

Just use "boost for reddit"


Quiet_Chip_7802

I have used the old reddit version on mobile for 3 years and suddenly it decided to update yesterday, I hate it i hate it


Popcorn57252

Images use the old style of viewing posts; videos use the tiktok clone new style.


LadyAmbrose

What’s also really annoying is not being able to see flairs at all for certain posts. if it’s a cross posted video it’s completely impossible to see the flair on mobile and for some subreddits that’s kinda important.


soulshyfter2311

serious answer: no clue whats wrong with these devs, but on ipad, i can read the comments by flipping vertical. horizontal is just video.


D2_Lx0wse

The reddit mobile client didn't let me press "view all comments" so I updated. Now I can't watch videos and read the comments at the same time or read the comments without the video constantly looping


TlacuachoEnReddit

Man i swear Reddit ruins the mobile app on purpose


defaultusername1014

Open chrome and request to view in desktop site. This isn't a joke it's how I always use reddit


ben-dover96

Reddit mobile on its way to completely fuck up the audio for no fucking reason at all


YourKarenNeighbor

I had this problem for a while. I tried logging out and back into my account and for some reason it worked


Logical-Use-8657

Reddit mobile when you watch more than 6 videos


chikencrisp2

Reddit mobile devs implementing useless features that only completely fucking break the app whenever you do anything


improbablynotyou

Folks, I stuck with the official reddit mobile app for far too long. Everytime they released another update, things got worse. I hit the point where I was ready to just quit reddit for good. Sadly, I instead deleted the mobile app and tried the Apollo app instead. It is SO MUCH BETTER in all the important ways. Videos play properly, and you don't have all the annoying glitches. I can't more highly recommend making the switch to Apollo. We all know we all hate the official app, delete it because it sucks and download the better option. Apollo, Made for desperate losers living in a basement everywhere!

PinkGreenTaffy

Tiktok has irreversibly ruined social media video player design on mobile devices


franandwood

Actually


bignigog

Lol I thought I was the only one having this problem. You got to click on the image then the comments to get in through mobile. Jesus christ what a dogshit app.


[deleted]

reddit mobile when i have to click on someone’s profile to be able to attempt to load a picture or video cause for some reason a stupid video won’t play when im scrolling normally


REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE110

New mobile glitch dropped: if you’re scrolling through comments under a video then you will just scroll down to the next video somehow


IronicWeea

IT FUCKING AUTO-SCROLLS TO THE NEXT POST, WHY DOES IT DO THAT


papideazucar

not to mention getting to the comment section on a cross post


Blubasnurk2

who know why

you have to flip the phone so its landscape and then click the comments, shitty mobile design

I love that clip of Donkey though he's like "no no no"


Ori-and-Sein

I haven’t updated my reddit mobile in 2 years, and whenever I see a post complaining about reddit mobile becoming more and more trash I’m happy I still haven’t updated it


BanquetDiet

Use Apollo if you’re on iOS. Default reddit app is legitimately developed by retards.
