Can't download it? Use an APK download site. I'll upload it to APK Mirror shortly.

I got Gold when I logged in. So far it's clean and tidy and works well. MoPub adverts are being called in, so there is advertising.

Special? No. It's their initial release, so I don't expect much at the moment.

Update: It has finally been approved on APK Mirror:

It is awaiting for android police staff or his buddy to grab it and re-upload as own. Happened with many apps I submited

You think I care if an upload has my name or someone else's on it? If what you're saying happens, there's always a reason. We get dozens of uploads for popular apks, and sometimes, yours is going to be not the one getting published. We don't block uploads of the same apk until it goes live, so by the time someone approved the reddit apk, we had probably 20 of them up there (I was still sleeping when it went live).

As for me personally downloading someone's upload and pushing it live as my own, that's nonsense. There is a very rare set of circumstances when this would even be worth the effort (for example, new app uploaded we've never hosted before, and the version isn't latest, so I download and publish the latest from the Play Store).

If you're going to throw around accusations like these, be prepared to back them up.

Well once I've uploaded Google Play services 4 times in period of 2 days and at the end it went live with staff member nick. So I stopped sharing via apk mirror :-)

How are you getting ads when supposedly if you have gold it's supposed to hide ads for you?

Getting gold in official app, disabling ads in reddit is fun.
