Description
Apollo was a powerful and customizable Reddit app for iOS
Apollo was an iOS app for browsing Reddit from 2015 to 2023. In 2023 Reddit announced significant price changes to their API, going from free to potentially costing tens of millions of dollars per year, with 30 days notice before developers would start incurring charges. As a result, Apollo was forced to shut down after the better part of a decade building for an incredible, supportive community. With over 100,000 five star ratings, and many accolades, I was incredibly proud of what Apollo accomplished.
The app now exists in a commemorative/historic state, with a thank you message, the option to unlock a Goodbye Apollo wallpaper pack, and options to export data if you had the app downloaded previously (shake the device), and all previous app icons are now automatically unlocked. You can also use the app as a hub to get updates about other things the developer (Christian Selig) is working on.
Again, thank you so much for all the years of fun, it was the honor of a lifetime building the app for all of you!

Ratings and Reviews
Editors’ Notes
Apollo for Reddit is an excellent alternative to the official app, with stacks of useful features and tons of settings you can tweak for an even more personalized Reddit experience. Apollo has clearly been designed by someone who spends a lot of time on Reddit, because the app is full of things that’ll delight power users.
Great but still missing important functions
Latest update resolve some bugs and issues but my greatest problem is still how Apollo doesn't cache the posts for offline browsing. I'd recommend Slide for Reddit if this is important for you because the data usage for Apollo is higher since it reloads (and apparently redownload everything) every time you open it
Great app! But...
Apollo is a great app. After using the official reddit app for over 2 years I've decided to give apollo a try and was just immediately amazed by the experience. It always scrolls smoothly and there is 0 ads. Though it may take awhile to get use to, the slide gestures are great to use. I then decided to shell out a small amount to get apollo pro for the additional features within the first day.
But here comes the bad part, one of the pro feature, hiding of read post, was apparently broken for awhile now and yes indeed it doesn't auto hide post that you've already read. When you manually hide posts, sometimes it hides everything and you don't have any post to see (which is deinitely wrong as I do see post I have not seen when I don't hide them).
