Description
Alerts for Reddit allows you to receive phone notifications for hot new posts on your favorite subreddits, or by your favorite users. Whether you're tracking /r/worldnews or /r/birdswitharms, your phone will notify you when a new post has quickly risen to the top of a subreddit. For user tracking, you can get notifications for new posts and/or comments by any public user on Reddit.
Features:
- Add/remove/mute subreddits or users at any time to start/stop seeing notifications
- No need to link your reddit account - you can subscribe for notifications to any public subreddit or user.
- Add up to 3 notification subscriptions of your choosing for free; upgrade to Premium to receive notifications for more than 3.
- Set the notification frequency for each subreddit: "Low" if you only want breaking news, "High" if you want notifications for all hot posts, or "All" to get notified for all new posts. If you want "All" posts within 30 seconds of the post going live, you can upgrade to Premium Speed to enable the "All - Fast" frequency.
- Set the notification frequency for each user: "Posts only" or "Posts and Comments"
- Filter notification subscriptions by keyword. For example, if you want to receive notifications for /r/science, but only if the title contains 'bird' or 'reptile', you can!
- Got a Reddit app on your phone? Notifications will launch you straight to the app. No app? Notifications will bring you to Reddit via the browser.
- View recent alerts for your subscribed subreddits and users right in the app.
- Never miss the posts you care about!
This app offers a premium subscription option, available for either a yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. For the subscription option, subscriptions renew within 24 hours of the subscription period ending, and a subscription purchase will be charged through your iTunes account. Manage at any time using Account Settings in iTunes. Privacy Policy and Terms of Use can be found at http://alertsforreddit.com/privacy.php

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent Application
Does what it says on the tin with no hindrances. Premium is cheap so no issue there.
To the developer, I’d happily pay extra if a keyword alert feature were added, so I can be notified when certain text appears in a subreddit’s post.
Perfect for news notifications
I find most of the breaking news apps fill my notifications with tabloid style murder stories or are very US focused. This allows me to get notified about breaking news from r/worldnews usually faster than the news apps. I also use it for subreddits where I like to be part of the conversation but I don't want to check Reddit every 5 minutes to check the new 'hot' posts.
It’s good - but needs better filtering
Once AND/OR/NOT operations are added it’ll be awesome
