I was asked to post here. cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/18458440

Since a lot of you asked me to build an Android version and post about it here when I launch, and I sincerely apologise that I forgot to post on lemmy sooner. The free app was launched on Play store almost a month ago and has garnered some excellent reviews. It has feature parity with the iPhone App and works on all Android 8.0+ devices.

You can download the app here.

Any feedback is wholeheartedly welcome, you can also post issues and contribute to the rdx web app on Github.

    I’m confused. I thought we were all here because reddit killed 3rd party software such as this? Did the api decision get reversed or something?

    Pass. I didn’t leave reddit just because I wanted to get around it later using scraping and workarounds.

    I’m here as long as it remains open. I enjoy the people here more too

      I keep Stealth installed to use for search redirects, this could be useful for that.

      It’s play store only though, so I’m passing too

    I just gave it a try and clicking on the comments for a post seems to load forever

    Edit: it seems like maybe this is an issue for posts with a large number of comments?

      it loads 500 comments by default to save on requests. Only a problem on posts with > 300 comments. Will add an option to load N number of comments only.

    Is there a way for me to “subscribe” to certain subs? I’d like to not have to type “Berserk” or “BHorrorMovies” everytime

    Hey I have noticed occasional updates that have been great! I am curious if you would consider adding a sorting by controversial? Keep up the good work though! It’s been nice just getting to see what’s going on at Reddit without supporting them.

        Any fix for the repeating post issue? I’ve attached a pic. This is on my Samsung s22 ultra. Videos sometimes have issues too where they’ll play then the video freezes while the sounds and stuff still continue playing.

          Oh you use compact mode? You will love the 1.5 update just arrived on Play Store. About the repeating posts issue unfortunately it’s reddit side problem [1] [2] the other issue where you play a video and the audio keeps playing could most probably be a buffering or memory issue(I haven’t encountered one on Android yet) but if you do encounter it next time please screen record and send me if you can.
