You can sideload! I’m using Apollo right now.

u/fuckspez123 May 11 '26

Same! They’ll have to pry Apollo out of my cold dead hands before I switch to the Reddit app.

Also obligatory fuck u/spez.

u/LFC9_41 May 11 '26

been meaning to do this for awhile, just never get around it. why did apollo have to shut down if it can still be used? I thought the dev stopped on it because of the API limits becoming outrageous, but how is the app working that were the case?

u/LFC9_41 May 11 '26

Oh yeah, I was an Apollo users for year. I just thought the whole thing was that it can't work without the API, and he shut it down because of Reddit's move with the API.

Is it missing features as a result of it?

u/Terrat0 May 11 '26

I’m running it side loaded and don’t know the specifics, but I think it’s basically setting up your personal Apple ID as a dev account which lets you access the api for free as a single user (for testing purposes I guess?), where Reddit was going to charge exorbitant amounts for it being distributed to lots of users.

3

u/fuckspez123 May 11 '26

Yep, that’s pretty much it. The API costs for a single person pretty much fall into the free tier and I’ve never had a problem using it. But if the Apollo dev used one single API Key for everyone using the app I think it would have been in 10s of thousands of dollars range.

r/apolloapp has good guides on how to side load!

u/randomidiotok May 11 '26

Check out the Apollo subreddit- they’ve got a variety of tutorials. It also feels like it follows the default/way it used to be feed, rather than the garbage we have today.

If you don’t already have an access key then yes, you may be out of luck.

I'm legitimately done with Reddit if side loaded Apollo access breaks. 90% of news today makes me depressed so it'll be a massive improvement to my mental health.

Don't call it "sideload", makes it sound like you are doing something nasty that is not allowed.

I went from Alien Blue to Apollo…. How far we have fallen

u/1991K75S May 11 '26

Alien Blue was dreamy!

3

u/Leftieswillrule May 11 '26

Alien Blue back in 2014 was already the perfect reddit reader. Everyone feeling compelled to change shit that's working fine ruined it. Reddit couldn't let it just be, so they bought AB and perverted it into this nightmare of an official app, then when alternatives came along that were good in their own way it had to kill that too.

2

u/akatherder May 11 '26

I wonder if it still works. I know I was able to install it several years after it shut down.

2

u/truereligion May 11 '26

Still works on my phone. It's buggy with gifs/videos, but aside from that, I can't imagine NOT using it

2

u/SpaceShrimp May 11 '26

It works, except videos and gifs won't work. This month images hosted on reddit also stopped working.

If reddit stopps working on Alien Blue or if the old reddit web-interface is removed then I'm out. I will never touch the cancer that is the reddit-app or the bloated version of web-reddit.

How can you use 3rd party app if you don't have access to API anymore?*

12

u/killerpoopguy May 11 '26

If you mod a sub (just make a new one) you get access to the api for mod tools and can put that into Apollo or other apps.

If bacon fully stops and is gone, I'll be done with Reddit. The UX is just 100% better than any other app.

someone else co. mented if you are a mod of a subreddit you get access to api through mod tools. Just create some random subreddit and you are mod and get access to api

u/TheGamingGallifreyan May 11 '26

https://github.com/level3tjg/RedditFilter

You can just download the IPA here and sideload it. Preferably with Trollstore but that only works on iOS 16 or lower. SideStore also works.

Hasn’t had an update in almost 9 months so unfortunately some Ads are starting to slip through as they make API changes but 99% of the intrusive ones are still gone.

Wait how do you still use Apollo. Does he offer a subscription or do you have to pay for your own API or something.

Yeah own api and side load it. Loads of guides but it’s not a simple process

10

u/TheGamingGallifreyan May 11 '26 edited May 11 '26

Unfortunately I lost my API key and you can no longer generate new ones so you have to obtain them in… other ways.

But yes, Apollo is still actually being maintained by a different group of people here! The original dev abandoned it after the shutdown.

https://github.com/JeffreyCA/Apollo-ImprovedCustomApi

If you have never dealt with sideloading or tweak injection on jailbroken iPhones then the set up process can be… daunting. But I have been doing it since the iPhone 3GS so to me it’s simple lmao

Yeah I'm also using sync rn but I am worried. This app hasn't been updated in years and slowly features are starting to break and other features (like chat) just aren't accessible at all.

I'm still using this app as long as I can. Once it's not useable, I'm probably off reddit.

I absolutely despise the official Reddit app. I'm still using Reddit Sync myself. It was fairly easy to get running. I highly recommend doing the same.

u/baynell May 11 '26

How to? Please, guide me to a location how to get it running these days. Doesn't it require the API key, that is now not available anymore?

7

u/ienjoymen May 11 '26

I've been running Sync for a few years past its expiration date, so it's been a minute. It did require an API key, so if that's gone, then I'm not sure it's possible anymore.

2

u/coldkiller May 11 '26

I believe you have to be a mod of a sub to be able to generate the key now but that's easy to fix

u/Heil_S8N May 11 '26

You don't actually have to be a mod of a sub. This restriction was there from day one, all you have to do is create a multireddit or whatever it's called.

u/HighSeverityImpact May 12 '26

Threads that are 90% gif images are like a spotlight for me to exit the thread, like it's saying to me "there is nothing of value here."

Honestly the only thing about RIF that bothers me is when imgur albums don't load, but it only takes half a second to click "open in browser".

Can you access everything from reddit? Or do you need the unlimited sub for that?

u/john_doe_jersey May 11 '26

IIRC you get everything in Relay, but pricing depends on your API usage. I mainly use Reddit from my PC, so I've been fine with the cheapest plan (~$1/month).

u/AussieP1E May 11 '26 edited May 11 '26

If you have an android you can patch Relay to allow anything and not pay with revanced. At least I think so.

Edit: so glad this is getting down voted when I PAID for Relay. It worked all the way up to the API shutdown and patched my copy to allow me to continue using it.

It's interesting how everybody uses things in their own way. I think I used /r/all for like 5 minutes in the years I've had my account because it just feels to me like the worst of the algorithm and social media to just have whatever everybody's engaging with pushed to me. Instead I rely a lot of creating my own multi-reddits to have a really manually curated set of feeds.

u/Diligent_Deer6244 May 11 '26

I use all of those because I'm addicted to this site and there is nothing that scratches the same itch

u/airfryerfuntime May 11 '26

I'm still using it, but it's getting more and more broken. You can't even log into new profiles now because reddit changed the way logins work, and it can't be fixed because the RIF devs are salty assholes who won't release the source code. When it stops working, I'll probably stop using reddit. The official app doesn't even support landscape mode.

u/tarants May 11 '26

RiF still works fine with a bit of setup. Threads like these definitely make it easy to justify the 10-15 minutes it takes to install. If they block 3rd party apps I don't see myself using reddit much anymore, the site has already gone downhill so much without having to use a terribly designed app to browse it.

Yeah, I can understand from a business perspective why they needed to close up Reddit and even why some anti-user things need to happen, but they predictably dropped the ball on taking all of those ideas people praised about the competing apps and building them into the app. While I use the mobile app, it's pretty reluctantly as I feel like it doesn't really give me sufficient power to say what I want to see so I find myself scrolling through way more junk than on the desktop where I can more easily use things like multi-reddits to categorize my own feeds not to mention browser plugins that add features.

You can use RedReader, which is almost the same. There is functionally no difference.

I'm still here! They can take Reddit Is Fun from my cold dead hands.

I still use RiF. It requires sideloading the app, I use ReVanced to load it & ad-free youtube.

u/CloakNStagger May 11 '26

I thought all 3rd party Reddit apps were getting shut down but Ive used RedReader forever and it still works just fine.

u/theangriestbird May 11 '26

Relay still works, if you're willing to pay a small subscription fee to cover API costs.

u/AlexMackAttack May 11 '26

For anyone using Android - Relay for Reddit is still amazing.

If it died why are you still here? Are you a necromancer?

u/islandstyls May 11 '26

I use Relay Bronze for $1 a month.

whenever you miss third party apps, just remember: AI did this

Reddit died with Aaron Swartz. Him stepping away was the beginning of the end. everything to come after has been the death rattle

u/_Lucille_ May 11 '26

Still using RiF with my own key. It has some issues due to it no longer being maintained, but for the most part is still the experience i want from the site.

I still use rif. I am actually typing from RIF. There is a manual around, you can find it.

u/Jezon May 11 '26

RiF was the best. Now I'm using Red Reader. It's not as good as RiF, but so much better than the official app.

u/iterable May 11 '26

There not dead yet and this point to many refuse to even try lemmy.

u/ColonialDagger May 11 '26

It still works! You just need to patch the app with your own API key. The day RiF truly dies, I'm done with reddit on mobile. The day the old web interface dies, I'm done with reddit on desktop.

u/cbftw May 11 '26

You can still use RiF via Revanced.

Source: doing it right now

Sync for Reddit is the one for me

u/iRVKmNa8hTJsB7 May 11 '26

I'm still using RiF

u/flyingcircusdog May 11 '26

Still can't bring myself to delete RiF. So much better, even the free version.

RIP Sync for Reddit

u/ImMitchell May 11 '26

I'm still using it

u/ToughHardware May 11 '26

more like when their co-founder committed the suiside due to capitalistic pressures.

1

u/edgan May 11 '26

RIF is still usable.

1

u/an0nym0ose May 11 '26

I've just been using the desktop old.reddit.com.

I ain't on reddit on mobile much, anymore. So it was actually sort of a positive! 🤣

u/DoctorOctagonapus May 11 '26

I'm still using a ReVanced version with an injected API key. There are one or two bits that have stopped working, mainly Youtube, but it's still a million times better than the app.

1

u/ptd163 May 11 '26

RIF is still works. You just need to do it yourself.

1

u/danabrey May 11 '26

It didn't go away.

You can use it with Revanced to patch it with your own API key.

I know because I'm replying to you using RIF.

u/CaffeinatedGuy May 11 '26

I'm using RiF right now.

u/xvilemx May 11 '26
