For faster loading and scrolling
Saved posts will be shown in a saved category inside the app.
After upgrading to version 1.6 it no longer seems to be possible to enlarge or zoom images, which is a big problem for me.
Geddit already supports advanced search, but I have to type the search commands. Like to search only in a specific subreddit.
Example search only in Microsoft subreddit the word Linux:
subreddit:microsoft linux
Or only search the title:
subreddit:microsoft title:linux
More examples:
https://old.reddit.com/wiki/search#wiki_manual_filtering
It's useful to have a way to perform advanced searches through the GUI instead of typing everything out.
Would it be possible to sort the subs we've added? I think basic alphabetical and such would be good, but also maybe allow manual sorting (and/or favorites or something)
In addition, the search bar in the Subs tab doesn't seem to do anything at all... I figured it would sort of filter the list based on a keyword entered but no subs come up no matter what I enter.
The details of this feature are described in Android documentation:
https://developer.android.com/about/versions/13/features#themed-app-icons
Instead of the arrow button at the bottom, just tap anywhere on the post to go into it. At the very least, be able to tap the post title to go into it.
Could geddit UI be made to be mYou and MD3?
It would be great to have the option to automatically self-update or manually download available updates from GitHub through the app after receiving notifications of new releases.
First off, FABULOUS app!! I'm very very impressed.
But...
If you accidentally double tap back button or otherwise switch out of the app, when you switch back, it loses your progress and reloads like it just launched.
I'd love to see it keep my place instead of making me scroll for 5 mins on a single accidental button push.
;)
Cheers and well done.
Currently, when users click on links, the app internally launches the external browser, unintentionally bypassing the browser's incognito mode.
An option that allows users to open the links outside the app by launching their device's default web browser would solve this problem.
For enhanced privacy, consider implementing a PIN/fingerprint unlock option. Device-level lock options are only one layer of protection. For example, if you lend your phone to a relative to browse the Internet, you may not want them to have unrestricted access to your entire list of subscribed subreddits.
Is it possible to make the app have to option for a private/incognito mode, open keyboard and/or browser in incognito mode? Maybe https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo#IME_FLAG_NO_PERSONALIZED_LEARNING will make it possible?
Even after implementing trees, I can still not see all the comment in the thread. Scrolling is also very strange now with the trees. It's like panning an image.
I just updated the app via Obtainium, Geddit does not disappear from the list of updated apps.
I was wondering if there's a way to make videos only play when actually opening the post? Currently all videos/gifs start playing even when just scrolling past them.
There should be a way to view and save multireddits.
Posts only show 15 comments.
Is this a limitation of the rss feed?
Scrolling has become a chore. So time consuming. And an option to close a comment tree will be appreciated.
This appears to only function in a dark-themed mode and doesn't follow the current device setting.
I saw a new version was just posted 2 hours ago. I'm a fresh new user, never installed, and after downloading and opening, I can't get any content to come through?
Hello there, before Reddit API changes i exported my subreddits in the form of a text file seperated by commas. I was wondering if it was possible to somehow import a bunch of subreddits at the same time and/or export them so they can be migrated to another device.
Version 1.7
With or without autoplay enabled i.reddit.it gifs no longer play and just display their first frame.
v.reddit.it video do load and play correctly
Version 1.4 show a pop up and allow you to update to 1.5 in app. Once on version 1.5 I did not receive a pop-up nor any notification and had to manually update via downloading the APK for versions 1.6 and 1.7
its just not usable without a compact mode and sepia theme would be nice. thats all.
Can we also have a light theme to choose from as well, and different dark theme possibilities, like soft grey, pastel colors backgrounds instead of the regular vantablack dark theme?
My eyes cannot take these ultra dark backgrounds anymore.
This is for old users who can't use old reddit clients because of the new api policy and have switched to this app. I'm sure someone has hundreds of subscriptions and won't add them again. This will add a lot of convenience
Adding it to the Play Store would offer users a convenient and secure way to access the app.

Can you please take care about versioning? Currently, the APK on each release tag identifies with versionName: "1.0"
and versionCode: 1
.
versionName
is what shows up in the app. On bug reports you might wish to know what version it is about โ this is what will be reported.versionCode
is what Android uses internally to tell versions apart, and to decide if an APK is an update to the installed version. Currently, no update notifications will show up as the code never changes.You can adjust this here in your build.gradle
. Please do so whenever you make a new release, which then will show up here in my repo โ if you wish you can pick a badge to link there e.g. from your Readme ๐
Thanks in advance!
Steps to reproduce:
Can you add a feature to enable font size increases for posts and titles? Geddit is already bigger than the stupid Reddit client (which also has no font size settings) but it would be great to be able to make it bigger. Thanks!
I may be in the minority, I'm usually not interested in a post's comments. That said, would it be possible to offer a "no comment mode" (for want of a better term) wherein all we see is the post itself?
Thanks.
I know that this is a completely brand new project, but I just wanted to ask if this will have the ability to log in at some point?
Support translating Reddit posts using anonymous translation clients like Lingva
This looks really great, any plans to support iOS?
If an image in a post is taller than the device's display (example), geddit will crop it without any way to view the rest of the image (outside of downloading it).
Ideally there should be a way to pan/zoom for larger images.
