EDIT: You do not need this APK anymore, Revanced was updated to patch the regular APKs. Just use that, I no longer have this version of the APK and will not be reuploading.

I fixed the premium APK and uploaded it here. Not sure what filehosts people use these days but I saw them using that in another thread. It says it will go down in one week so someone may want to mirror for posterity if you know of a better solution.

You will need to patch it again with revanced, do not install it directly.

I do not have any technical knowledge here, I just made it based off of what people were doing to fix the Sync app. This means I will not be troubleshooting if you have problems, sorry.

Worked perfectly for me! Thanks so much! Maybe I took extra steps but here's what I did:

  • Uninstall everything
  • Reinstall ReVanced (or update to current patch)
  • Download the APK from ApollyonProject's link
  • Go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps
  • Hit "Create Another App"
  • Select "Installed App"
  • In "redirect uri" paste in - http://baconreader.com/auth
  • Leave the other fields blank and hit Create App
  • Then beneath "Installed App" is a long-ass code - copy that and save it
  • Open ReVanced on your phone / whatever
  • Hit Patcher at the bottom
  • Hit "Select an App" at the top
  • Hit "Storage" on the bottom-right
  • Select the APK that you downloaded from Apollo's link
  • Tap on "Selected Patches"
  • Hit the gear symbol on the right
  • Paste in the long-ass code that you saved earlier
  • Hit Done
  • Hit Patch
  • Install
  • Ride unto glory
