Reddit has evolved into one of the most popular websites in the world but, despite its success, the self-titled “front page of the Internet” never released an official app. So, over the years, users have turned to third-party clients, one of which — Alien Blue — Reddit actually bought two years ago. Now though users are finally getting the real deal.

Reddit finally unleashes its official mobile app  
Reddit has finally launched official apps for Android and iOS. They come with support for inline images and themes, and promise “simpler navigation”, and more. Here is what else you can expect.
At first glance, the apps are nicely designed. They appear to offer a similar user experience on Android and iOS, with only a few differences in appearance separating them. Both will let you browse content, upvote, talk to other Redditors, comment, share content, and more.
The app comes with a “compact” and “card” view, and supports themes such as night mode. Ultimately, if you’ve used a Reddit client before you know what to expect — and Reddit: The Official App doesn’t disappoint in this regard.
If you’ve used Alien Blue before, you’ll know the interface of Reddit: The Official App, although the company has tweaked it in the 18 months since the acquisition was made public.
“The best part about Reddit, after all, is you,” Reddit says. “Whether you’re into movies or space travel, coding or baking, world news headlines or Hollywood gossip, astronomy or astrology—or all of the above—instantly share your content and ideas with millions.”
Reddit can be downloaded from both the iOS and Google Play app stores. It’s worth pointing out that it’s not yet available in all countries, and also isn’t a universal app yet, so isn’t optimized for iPad.
