## Description

Comet for Reddit reimagines the Reddit experience as a blazing-fast, visually stunning client. Built with an iOS-inspired design and intuitive navigation, it delivers speed, beauty, and robustness without corporate meddling.

Explore endless content with beautiful post layouts, inline autoplay for GIFs, and infinite scrolling. Manage comments, search posts and subreddits, view media without leaving the app, and post with a powerful markdown editor. Sync your subscriptions across devices, switch themes and layouts, and run multiple accounts with ease.

## Review summary

User reviews mostly converge on a broken login flow and broken permissions, with many reports of crashes and UI problems. Several reviews describe blank or non-loading content and overall unusability, with nostalgia for a time when the app worked. A smaller set praises the app’s prior speed and status as a free Reddit client. Overall, the app is currently unreliable and effectively unusable for many users.

### Pros

- Fast and easy to browse for basic users.
- One of the few free Reddit apps available for macOS/iOS.
- Was regarded as a solid replacement for Apollo before issues (positive sentiment before the decline).

### Cons

- Sign-in/login issues are widespread: users cannot sign in or complete the login flow, with Accept/Decline often non-functional.
- In-app permission prompts (Allow/Decline) don’t work during login, blocking access to Reddit accounts.
- Crashes or instability: crashes when loading media and general app instability.
- UI rendering problems: garbled text, broken line spacing, and text overlays.
- Content loading failures: pages showing Nothing Here or blank/missing content, and reports that the app is dead or no longer supported.
