Anyone still have a 3rd party Reddit app on their phone?

I see Apollo and I’m not sure if I want to delete it.

I’m not sure why. I guess I’m kinda hoping there is some update to it that adds some functionality, but I guess that’s not really in the cards.

Anyone else not deleting their third party app for a reason?

I deleted them all from my phone. I decided reddit had moved on into the type of company I no longer wanted to support. I deleted all of my comments, deleted the apps from my phone, logged back in and deleted my comments again, deleted all of their history and cookies from Firefox, and haven't been back. Even if they fixed the current issues and reopened the public api, what they were already willing to do to their community shows what they are as a business. They will no longer get my clicks, my visits, or my ad revenue.

I still do actually. Stealth scrapes the old.reddit.com, and as long as that works, I'll use it if I need to.

I've kept RIF, but set an app usage time limit of 0 minutes. So it's still there, but permanently greyed out, like a memorial to what once was.

Yeah, but I moved the icon so it’s no longer on my main screen. I haven’t been back to reddit in weeks, and probably never will.

I use for long time RedReader and it is one of 2 apps still working. When the update comes I will uninstall it.

- In my understanding, RedReader will continue working.

  Yes but for how long. It is only matter of time it will be ditched as well.

I still use Infinity, as it still works perfectly for me.

- Same here. I'm pretty surprised about that.

  It's temporary. Infinity's developer is working with admin to create a subscription app and pay API fees. There are a few doing that (Boost and a few others). They've been given some sort of a temporary exemption pending update rollout. You can see posts explaining this in their subreddits.

I still have Relay Pro on my phone, even though I no longer have a Reddit account. I just want to hang on to it for a while for no good reason.

- Same, I don’t intend to use Reddit anymore. Just feels like getting rid of a friend 😂

  That's it! I don't want to get rid of my helpful, little buddy. 😄
