For those who lurk on Reddit - my ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is an iPhone app now (apps.apple.com)

Posting the update here because most of the users of RDX come from Lemmy community only.

Why?

A lot of users asked for a more polished viewer with more features and users in the EU now can not add web apps to home screen, so I spent some time building an iOS app. You can also save images and videos/gifs from Reddit now. It's stil completely free (with an optional donate option available), the web app also works.

You can download the app here

My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use...

If you want to lurk on Reddit, you can use this web reader I built for myself when I got inspired by the Apollo app years ago

what account requirement?

[-] ColdWater@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

NFSW and a few other kind require an account to see

[-] swordgeek@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

You don't need an app for that, just replace 'www' with 'old' in the URL.

[-] overdevs@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

there is an nsfw toggle in the app.

Amazing! I've been using SinkIt For Reddit for a while. It's great to have an actual app again. Thank you for this!

I swear I’m only partially an idiot – but how do you “go back” after drilling down into a post on iOS?

[-] overdevs@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Just swipe back from the left edge? swiping from right will take you to the post page again. Just like a browser.

[-] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 1 points 6 months ago

Oddly doesn’t seem to do anything - just the up/down swipe inputs are registering as scrolling.

[-] overdevs@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

This shouldn't happen, I have tested the app on multiple devices. Try this go to the settings tab, click on donate page or appearance page then try swiping left to right from the left most edge. If even that doesn't work please tell me about the device you are using.

Appreciated. It’s working – I guess I’m not used to swiping from the extreme edge of the screen.
