HOW SURE ARE WE
Lower confidence: this app ranks below the overall top 50 everywhere, where single estimates can be off 2 to 4 times. The range is wide on purpose. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

WHAT THEY ASK FOR

  • Redgifs don't gave sound, and it frequently says I need a subscription when I pay for hold 2★, Aug 19, 2025
  • I wish there was a block list. 5★, May 24, 2025
  • I agree the official reddit app is pretty bad, but no one, and I mean NO ONE should have to pay for social media (and that's even more true for reddit), just use your phone browser for browsing the site, not even a… 1★, Mar 22, 2025
  • Uninstalled/reinstalled and now again cant add the old accounts and it doesnt recognize the subscription. 5★, Mar 9, 2025
  • If you don't need any of the "native only" features of Reddit (which are mostly annoying anyway) Relay gives you an infinitely better experience and ad-free too 5★, Mar 2, 2025

★★★★★Oct 15, 2026

I've loved this app for a good 10 years or so. it's lite, easy to navigate....and that's really all that you need for reddit.

★★★★★Oct 15, 2026

Hey guys, big fan of the app. Lately I can't seem to access the comments even though I am subscribed to the gold tier. The frontpage opens fine but the comments section crashes and gets stuck on a loop of verifying subscription. Please don't make me install the official reddit app.

★★★★★Oct 13, 2026

App logged me out and I have no option to get back in. Went to Reddit to try and get in that way but this specific account was not saved. Can't get in my own account that I pay for.

★★★★★Oct 13, 2026

Okay, at some point in the past few days Relay suddenly magically started working again, so I'm changing my one star review appropriately. I will leave the original review below, for record keeping. . . After ages of using this, suddenly it "fails to load content" in the app and claims that "this is not compatible with my phone" on the play store.

★★★★★Oct 10, 2026

Best Reddit client available at the moment.

★★★★★Oct 7, 2026

Store description

First released in 2011, Relay has been consistently developed over the past decade by the same third party developer. Relay has been a subscription-based app since since September 2023 when Reddit introduced a monthly fee for 3rd party developers to access its API. There are multiple price plans to choose from depending on your usage. More than 75% of Relay's users pay (USD) 1$ or 2$ dollars per month for a beautiful, ad-free experience with no trackers and a pure Frontpage made up of only the subreddits you subscribe to. Highlights: • Relay's design closely follows Google's 'Material You' standards giving you the same color palette as the rest of your phone, including night mode and an OLED blackout theme. • Animations are sprinkled throughout the app and are based on physical springs which makes them much smoother then traditional Android animations. • Links and comments load at the same time; a simple swipe switches between them. • Comprehensive Moderator features (distinguish, sticky posts, ban users etc) • Swipe to vote • Rich text editor • Advanced comment navigation - next/previous thread, find words, IAMA and more! • Multiple accounts supported • Subreddit and key word filtering available • Extensive customisation options including font style and size, left-handed viewing. Relay for reddit is a time-honored way to browse the news and entertainment of the hour. Whether you're a casual 'lurker', power user, or even a moderator, Relay's design makes reddit viewing a pleasure.
