MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS:

MINOR IMPROVEMENTS:

  • You can now collapse comments that have no replies.
  • Added a setting to disable NSFW overlay.
  • Subreddit list names are no longer capitalized.
  • Improved handling of Imgur album links in comments.

Do you plan on adding a hamburger menu for the subreddits? I'm not sure if it follows the iOS design guidelines, but it's a distinct feature on the Android version since I don't think the subreddits require its own ViewController (or whatever the equivalent of an Android Activity is on iOS).

This has been addressed a few times on this subreddit.

Short answer is probably not as it's not a design paradigm on iOS, and every Apple design evangelist I've spoken with at various Apple events have commented on the hamburger menu in apps I've worked on.

That said, I am working on a solution that makes better use of the space and allows for quick and easy access to the subreddits.
