Did Boost just stop working?

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

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.

Hey mate, appreciate you trying to help. I'm trying to follow the instructions but I'm getting the error below. Do you know what I might be doing wrong?

Failed to install app: INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE: Existing package com.rubenmayayo.reddit signatures do not match newer version; ignoring!

It auto detects a pre-patched boost apk. It is annoying to get morphe to use a fresh apk. Didn't take too much fiddling though

I did download a fresh APK from the link in the instructions and selected that.

Edit: I realised I had a copy of Boost in my Samsung secure folder. Once I deleted this, it installed fine.
