Hey all,

After a long of hard work, Ready For Reddit is finally officially released. One of the best features that I just added is auto-updating, user-curated filter packs for things like Star Wars 8 spoilers, new political subs that keep popping up, or whatever else you need. Other standout features include auto-playing gifs, quick top comment previews, double tap to upvote, triple tap to downvote, prefetching while device is asleep, and more.

Browsing Reddit with Ready is a breeze since you can do most things directly in your feed without having to load to another screen.

Features

Auto-updating, user-curated filter packs

Hate that you got Star Wars 8 spoiled? Tired of filtering new political subs that keep popping up? Want to filter all porn content? You aren't going to be able to keep up with all of it. Here is where auto-updating, user-curated filter packs come in. They are filter packs that you can subscribe to that anyone can create. They are actually just subreddits formatted a certain way. Mods can set filters and also allow users to submit filters that will be counted if they reach a certain score. Ready will automatically check for updates to your filters. Check out /r/ReadyRedditFilters for more info. You are going to want this before Infinity War gets spoiled for you.

Quick Comments Preview

Do you ever open a post just to check the top comments? I do, so I added a feature to quickly do that without having to click into the post and wait for it to load all the comments. Just click on the comment count and you can get a quick preview of the top comments.

Play Gifs and Videos Directly In Feed

Another feature that reduces that amount of times you have to navigate to another screen is the ability to play gifs and videos directly in the feed. You can disable this and can still click the content type label to start playing content inline.

[Double-tap to vote, triple-tap to downvote] (https://gfycat.com/EmbarrassedRewardingKid)

A feature I know some users really want. By default, it is only enabled for comments but not for submissions as it introduces a delay to single tap actions and submissions already have visible vote buttons.

Prefetching while device is asleep

If you enable it, Reddit data will be prefetched occasionally while your device is asleep and connected to wifi. That way you won't have to use your slower and limited mobile data if you go out. Will be more customizable in the future.

Other features:

• Beautiful design

• Themes

• Item layouts

• Navigate comment threads by swiping

• Replacing gifs with Gfycat to save bandwidth

• Multireddit support

• Multiuser support

• Inline table support

• Spoiler tag support

• and more...

• Most missing features will be coming.

I hope you will check out this app and leave me some feedback.

Promo Codes

I will add more throughout the day so some later people get a chance. Also, I may give out some codes directly in app in a few days if I can find a good way to implement it. If it doesn't detect premium correctly after redeeming, try restarting the app. For now, premium just removes ads.

Thanks!

Just wanted to stop by and say that this still is the most beautifully designed Reddit app there is in my opinion. I still look forward to all of your future updates, and want to say thanks for the hard work you've put in.

Hey all, it has been a while 😅. Sorry I've been MIA but I've been quite busy with work so trying to finish up this huge 3.0 update has taken a loooong time. Now that this huge update has gotten out of the way, updates should be more frequent and I will be back to respond to feedback/requests. I've just had to go dark for a while because I was getting too stressed trying to finish this on top of work.

Anyways, here is the 3.0 Beta APK. Just a small limited beta release for now, I hope to have a full release some time later this week or next week.

I know some features are still missing but as you can see, I am getting to them.

Also, if you previously joined beta when that was the only way to download the app, you should leave the beta program unless you want to continue receiving beta builds which may be less stable. That way I can actually use the beta program for beta testing which would speed up development time as right now I am testing them by myself. You can leave the beta program here by clicking "Leave the program" near the bottom.

I know Dev maybe can't work on this app 24/7, but no updates from Aug. Is this app dead or just taking a little longer then expected? Really like this app, but I noticed some "lag* and bugs, so I was hoping for the app to runt much smoother. Just give us some updates information so we know what's going on, thanks.

I bought premium, because I like this app. It's sad to see Ready in this state. Please do something with Ready.

Hey all, I was planning on launching Ready 2.0 this Monday but as I pushed the update to the Play Store, Ready was suspended from the Play Store. This one was totally my fault as this update included supporting subreddit icons and banners but I overlooked censoring nsfw subs that had nsfw icons/banners. I created an update that rectified the situation and submitted it yesterday morning. Now I am just waiting to see if they will reinstate my app. I am not going to release the APK for now since I don't have a way to push updates for bug fixes, etc but here is some info about the update to look forward to.

BTW, there is a test app uploaded to the Play Store under my developer account, don't download that. That is a test version to make sure it is compliant.

Any time I tap an imgur album link, a black screen appears with no indication of loading, and it never loads

Videoclips are pixelated. It looks like they downgraded in resolution. Sometimes they are also without sound. Tried with WiFi and mobile data.

Please add cake day and account age

I'm a massive fan of minimal design and this app hits that spot for me and it's my favorite look of any Reddit app out there, and I've purchased and donated to nearly all of them. Sync(my main), Boost, Slide, Joey, Relay, and many others that have come and gone over the years.

I'm quite excited to see where this app goes, and once there is parent comment navigation I may just have to switch to Ready.

Keep up the good work!

It is contesting with Google Chrome on Android Q, very annoying

Hi Gary I really like your app. One suggestion I have is if you could add the option of completely collapsing comments when you tap them. Currently only the child comments are collapsed but not the top level parent comment itself that is tapped. I'd find that feature useful as it makes navigating the comments section easier and less cluttered. Thanks for the app!

This is my main Reddit app and it has been for a few months. I just love how simple it is. But we haven't gotten an update in over a month, whats the deal?

As requested, implemented downloading content. It is somewhat rudimentary and will be improved in the future with things like:

• Choose between downloading as GIF/MP4

• Show preview in notification once downloaded

• Change download directory (for now they're in your Android downloads folder)

• Download an entire album

• And other improvements/tweaks.

I keep pressing the save button instead of upvote, for example.

Maybe because I use a higher dpi. Can you give users the option for custom display size then?

Also can you make the upvote/downvote buttons with thick outlines like https://material.io/tools/icons/?style=outline ?

Much like Instagram does where you can push and hold down on the image and drag down to select options to like, share, etc. Is there anything like that that can be added as a feature? I think the ability to quickly see an image without opening a full link is convenient and fluid.

Thank you for your hard work. The app looks great and I love the MD2.0 update!

Thanks!

The subreddit and the app seems unattended.
