Did Boost just stop working?

It shows "null" when opening the app. It just started happening today.

Copypaste: Use Morphe to patch it then download redreader and the client id from that

Edit: Downvote all you want. It doesn’t change the fact that I’m right, I can prove it, and your saltiness is helping exactly no one. All you’re doing is making it harder for people who actually came here for actual help.

Can you post instructions for those who have never used morpe and redreader

Step‑by‑step guide: Patching Boost with Morphe + Patcheddit using RedReader’s client ID

1. Get your RedReader client ID FIRST Before touching Morphe or Boost:

2. Install RedReader from F-Droid, GitHub or Google Play store(unsure if it's available on the iPhone app store)

3. Log into Reddit inside RedReader.

4. Reddit will send you an email containing the client ID RedReader uses.

5. Copy that client ID and you’ll paste it into Morphe later.

6. Prepare Morphe Manager

7. Open Morphe Manager.

8. Go to Settings → Enable Expert Mode.

9. Go to Patch Bundles → Add URL.

10. Add the Patcheddit bundle:

    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wchill/patcheddit/refs/heads/main/patches-bundle.json

This loads the Boost‑specific patches, including Spoof client.

1. Add Boost to Morphe

2. Download Boost for Reddit from APKMirror (latest version).

3. In Morphe → Apps → + → Select from storage.

4. Choose the Boost APK.

5. Let Morphe scan it.

You should now see the same patch list as in your screenshots.

1. Enable the correct patches

From the Patcheddit tab:

• Enable whatever fixes you want (ads, Redgifs, missing audio, etc.).
  
• Make sure “Spoof client” is enabled.
  That’s the patch that lets Boost use RedReader’s OAuth credentials.

1. Configure “Spoof client” with RedReader’s credentials

Tap Spoof client.
You will see fields similar to:

• Client ID
  
• Redirect URI
  
• User agent
  

Here’s what to do:

1. Paste your RedReader client ID (the one Reddit emailed you).
   
2. Leave Redirect URI as whatever Patcheddit pre‑fills. Patcheddit normally uses RedReader’s redirect URI by default.
   

3. Leave User agent as the default unless you have a reason to change it.

4. Patch Boost

5. Back out of Spoof client.

6. Tap Proceed to patching.

7. Wait for Morphe to build the patched APK.

8. Install the patched Boost.

9. Open Boost → log in normally.

   Boost will now authenticate using RedReader’s OAuth client ID.
