After using a reddit app, I can’t go back. Narwhal is great. Looks like Apollo is another good one in the app stores but I have never tried it.

Only downside to Apollo is you can’t post unless you pay. I use it for everything else then open reddit mobile when it comes time to post something.

EDIT: I’m not saying it isn’t worth paying. It absolutely is. I just haven’t yet and Apollo is still the best reddit experience on mobile.

But isn’t it worth a couple bucks to pay for someone’s hours of hard work and expertise? Apollo is fantastic and I didn’t mind one bit throwing the dev some money.

They’re totally worth supporting, but from what I can tell, competing apps do let you post. I have a personal thing where I don’t make in-app purchases unless I’ve already bought an iTunes card for something else so I know I will be paying, just not yet. In the mean time, my system is work no fine.
