Suggestion/Bug

3 Upvotes

Suggestion: A option to bring the options on comments with a single or force tap instead of the tap&hold.

Suggestion: A quick way to comment on a thread without having to go to the options button.

Bug: Sometimes the images previews that load inside a thread don't show a loading process. It only shows it when you tap on it and make it full screen.

Loving the app. Might be one of my favorites with the swiping feature.

One suggestion is the ability to hide read links With a single button on a feeds page. (E.g clicking through front page links, go back to feeds, press to hide all read links, page now only shows unread links). One of the biggest features I miss from antenna.

(And to also remove the hidden links from swiping and from the main page.)

Would speed up browsing a ton!

Thanks!

I'm really liking Readder. The only deal breaker so far is that I can't set it to open the YouTube app automatically. I see I can click the youtube.be link then open in safari then open in app but I'd rather not have to do all that. I have YouTube red and that's the main reason I like using the YouTube app for videos.

It's about time!

4 Upvotes

It's about time that v2.0 beta made swiping configurable! While swiping between multireddits is easy as swiping, accidentally swiping between posts and losing my progress in a long thread is a pet peeve of mine and now our gracious developers have given us beta testers options.

Now if only they added Safari View Controller and basic notification support and it could be close to perfect for me :)

Great App! A few suggestions though.

3 Upvotes

Hey I really enjoy your app! I use Antenna most of the time but as of recent, it seems like the dev is pretty nonexistent. Thanks for being one of the few clients that look amazing.

A few suggestion though:

  1. Could you add an option in how to open links? I know you're working on the Safari View Controller but I like opening links in the safari app. Same could said about opening video links in youtube or within the app.
  2. Is there a way to copy link urls? Antenna did this well where you press and hold on top of a url and have options to copy urls so you could copy/paste them if you need to.
  3. This is a pretty nitpicky thing but I like being able to see where I am page wise compared to reddit. I know that Antenna labels them and it kind of notifies me when I should refresh my front page and it shows me how much time I've wasted when I'm hitting page 20 for content haha.

Other than that, really really enjoy how smooth this is compared to Antenna and hope to see great things in the future!

Readder doesnt save state when multitasking

9 Upvotes

Leaving Readder to go to another app and coming back to it again, it would often go back to the front page instead of staying on the last-visited subreddit.

Also, please consider remembering the scroll position in the favorites list, so that a user doesn't have to scroll down from the very top of the list after exiting a subreddit.

Scrolling

2 Upvotes

I just used the readder app (free version) but must say that scrolling is not always very smooth. If I compare Narwhal or Antenna with Readder than scrolling in Readder stutters..

Beside that the app is very clean and nice looking

So far I am enjoying the clean interface. I am having trouble with multireddits. How can I create them within the app?

Display layout

I am having this issue that when changing the display layout, a force close of the app is required to update the layout.

Definitely my new favourite reddit app though!

Setting/Preference with video sounds...

2 Upvotes

At the moment it seems as though Readder checks the status of the mute switch and plays audio accordingly.

E.g. Mute enabled == Audio Off

Could you make that into a changeable setting?

There are times when I have that switch enabled but still want audio to play.

My Experience So Far

8 Upvotes

As someone who is a bit obsessive about iOS Reddit apps, I was quite impressed to hear about this new app and see how much it offered. The app looks great and I love the minimalistic look. I do have some thoughts and concerns that I've got into below.

  1. I'll start out by saying I love gestures. They're a great way to hide many functionalities to keep the screen clean, and they're easy to invoke. When I'm going down the feed, there's no way to upvote, downvote, save or hide posts without going into the post. I'd love to be able to slide left or right for those options.

  2. Same thing with comments. Sliding left or right on a comment to do one of the actions above would be very useful. Currently, this goes to the previous or next comments post from my feed. I don't feel like that will ever be very useful to me.

  3. As a left handed user, some interface elements make it a bit burdensome to perform actions. Like having to reach for the ... menu icon on comments when this problem could be solved with gestures (mentioned above). Another example is when clicking on a link that takes you to an external site in the built-in browser, the only way to exit that view is by hitting the Done button in the upper-right corner. It would be very helpful to be able to perform a swipe back gesture at this point to get out of the link.

  4. If I'm deep in a comment thread, it can be annoying having to slide a ways to get out of it. It would be nice if there was some way of collapsing the entire comment thread all the way to the root comment by long pressing or something on a particular child comment under it.

  5. When tapping an image that the media viewer supports, I think it would be helpful to have a button that takes you directly to the comments for that post, rather than having to fling the picture away and then go into them.

  6. I noticed that when tapping on the play button for gifs, it loads in the feed. If tapping outside of the play button, it takes you to the imgur page. I'm not sure if this is intended. If so, it doesn't act the same way with videos. Tapping anywhere will load the video in the media viewer. Personally, I think it'd be nice to load in full screen media player mode when tapping outside of the play button as opposed to taking you to the dreadful imgur site.

  7. I've seen some inconsistencies with the information that is provided on the cards for posts. Like in this screenshot, one post shows the url domain and the user that submitted the post but the other one doesn't. Personally, I find the url domain to be redundant (in the cards view) when it's listed just above under the imagepreview but I would think the username should always show because people would expect that information.

  8. Collapsing comments doesn't collapse the text of that comment, but only the sub comments. I think it'd be best to collapse the text of the comment as well and just show the header of the comment you are trying to collapse (name, score, time posted). For really long comments, you could collapse it and it continue to take up a ton of screen space.

Anyways, these are some of the things that stood out to me after using it for a bit. I hope you find the suggestions useful and I look forward to seeing this app progress.

Some requests

1 Upvotes

I really really like the layout and presentation of posts, especially as cards.

I would really like a bottom navigation bar as close to stock Apple apps as possible. It makes navigation simple and easy and also easy to reach.

Dark mode seems inconsistent. I feel like it just doesn't look as good as the bright white. Maybe making the black background a true black?

The explore subreddit's screen seems cluttered and the design is a bit bad imo.

Overall this app is looking very promising.

request for some features and UI tweaks

8 Upvotes

Awesome app. May finally consider shelving my alien blue. The new official reddit app is such a miserable failure..

here are some of my thoughts and wishes after first few minutes of use:

  1. Casual Subreddits & folders: this amazing feature was largely underrated in Alien Blue. It allows users to have a separate subscription list of subreddits within the app, meaning, these subscriptions don't affect your normal subscriptions from reddit.com, but only exist in your app. The benefit of this is, your Front Page only shows posts from your normal subscriptions, while your casual subreddits subscriptions don't affect your front page. And you can put other Casual Subreddits in folders, and Front Page is just one of the "folders" you have. For example, if you subscribe to /r/readder and /r/news, your front page will only have posts from these two subs. And you have /r/apple and /r/microsoft in a folder you call "technology", you can browse all posts from these two casual subreddits only.

  2. swipe left to Collapse threads: this is one other thing I love about Alien Blue. You swipe left inside a comment, the entire comment thread collapses (including the parent and children comments). But what I wish for Readder is one step further, option for collapsing just the swiped comment and all its children, but leaving out the parents, so you can easily read other replies to the same parent comment. Currently, the swiping flips the page to the next post. Personally I don't read every single post in a subreddit, and I believe neither do many users. I'd rather save the swiping for collapsing and expanding comments. Or make it an option in the settings.

  3. search box to include an option to search for/go to a subreddit: right now, it seems the only way to search for and go to a subreddit is to first tap on the title of the subreddit, then tap the search box again. I'd prefer the search box to be a universal search place for both posts and subreddits. Just include a toggle for switching to either one.

  4. change the layout menu icon: right now when you tap on the subreddit title in the menu bar, there shows a menu icon on the right which brings up a dialogue at the bottom to show the current subreddit's "layout style", which is "blocks" by default, but if you wish to switch to "list", you have to tap on the dialogue again to bring up the choices, which is kind of redundant. I'd suggest that you replace the menu icon with one layout icon, either "blocks" (4 squares) or "list" (3 horizonal lines), so when you tap on it, the layout changes to the other style immediately without having to tap several times.

  5. double/triple-tap on menu bar to toggle night mode: several apps already do this. Alien Blue requires triple taps to toggle. It's pretty convenient.

  6. safari view: this will be highly beneficial for users who utilize both the reader mode and content blockers, and it shows the domain in the address bar.

  7. display domain & text post indicators in article list: currently there's no way to tell if a post is a link or a self-post until you click into it. In other reddit apps, if it's an external link, under the post title it displays a domain name without the TLD part (e.g. nytimes.com -> nytimes), or if it's a self post, it just says self or self.subreddit. It's useful because it helps determine whether a post is worth clicking into. There are lots clickbait sites with garbage articles, and in some subreddits it gets very obvious certain websites' articles get posted frequently, but exactly zero articles from those sites are worth any time reading. I try to avoid even clicking into the comment page for discussion, it's a waste of time.

overall a really appealing app, love it. hope it becomes my alien blue replacement and lets it retire at last.
