Reddit is a virtual goldmine of information on countless topics, all organized into subreddits and multireddits, with options to get a customized feed of only what you want to see. /r/jailbreak is a great place to find tweak concepts and help with jailbreaking issues, and there is an infinite amount of other topics of interest on Reddit.
Of course, no social network is complete without an iPhone app, and there are quite a few third-party iOS apps for Reddit – so many that it’s hard to find a clear winner in every category. Naturally, hardcore Reddit users each have their own favorite app like Alien Blue, but occasionally a newer app, such as Reddme, will come out and gain its own fan base. The hard part is deciding which one to use daily. Hence, an article on the best Reddit apps for iOS.
Alien Blue
Anyone writing an article on the best Reddit clients without mentioning Alien Blue would get hounded in the comments by the many fans of the popular client. With a plethora of features and settings to customize your experience, Alien Blue certainly deserves the attention it has received.
Personally, however, the UI feels somewhat cluttered and cramped, causing the app to lack in the design department. Although it recently received a visual overhaul, its complexity still takes away from the experience. I’m a big night mode fan, but the one found in Alien Blue isn’t as aesthetically pleasing as it could be. In addition, this app doesn’t have a way to hide NSFW content, which can be a deal breaker for many users.
If you’re a serious Reddit user who is more interested in power features than a minimal UI, Alien Blue is definitely a good choice. While most features come with the app, there’s an in-app purchase that unlocks pro features, although that IAP is free at the moment, due to Reddit officially acquiring Alien Blue. You can download Alien Blue for free in the App Store.
Reddme
Although it’s the newest of the bunch, Reddme is a nicely designed Reddit client with a focus on comments – an integral part of Reddit. In testing, I’ve found that Reddme does a better job than most clients at making tracking comment threads and replies an easy task.
While it lacks many of the customizable options of Alien Blue, the developers of Reddme are planning continued support with frequent updates over the next several months, which should introduce more features and customizability. That said, Reddme is designed to be a simple-to-use client without the complicated clutter found in some apps.
If your current Reddit client has features you don’t use or an overly complex interface, or if you just want to try something new, then Reddme is an excellent option to consider. With a simple design and plenty of updates on the way, it’s well worth the $0.99 price tag in the App Store, and if you want to read more about it, we reviewed Reddme when it first came out.
