However, there hadn't been an app actually developed by Reddit until this point.</p><p>Alex Le, Reddit's VP of consumer product, made the announcement today (<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/4dqxgt/reddit_mobile_apps/">via Reddit submission, obviously</a>) and proceeded to field fellow redditors' queries about the new app, which is now available for both iOS and Android devices.</p><p>The launch version of the app can not only browse the site, but also search the website's wide selection of hyper-specific subreddits, submit content, customize its appearance, and tweak its appearance for compacted or expanded viewing.</p><p>While the introduction of a truly "official" Reddit app may spell the end of third-party counterparts, Le commented on the announcement thread that the site "will continue to support" their open and free API for other developers to work with.</p><p>Also, users who sign up for the app with a verified Reddit account get three months of Reddit gold – the site's premium subscription service – for free, which is all the incentive we'll need when we dive back into <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/aww">r/aww</a> on the commute home.</p><ul><li><a href="http://www.techradar.com/news/internet/reddit-is-publishing-a-hardback-book-of-its-best-amas-1312435">Reddit's "Ask Me Anything" threads are getting a hardback release</a></li></ul><br clear='all'/><br/><br/><a href="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/1/rc.htm" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/1/rc.img" border="0"/></a><br/><br/><a href="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/2/rc.htm" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/2/rc.img" border="0"/></a><br/><br/><a href="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/3/rc.htm" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://rc.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/rc/3/rc.img" border="0"/></a><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/247397202000/u/49/f/9809/c/669/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/a2t.img" border="0"/><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/9809/s/4ecb69b8/sc/23/mf.gif' border='0'/><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/allnews/~4/yV6OfVpr6Ds" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>
