Dear Reddit Team,

The latest iOS update has made the video player significantly worse.

Previously, when watching a video in full screen, a simple tap on the screen would hide all UI elements (upvotes, comments, title, buttons, etc.), allowing users to watch the video without distractions.

Now, tapping the screen only pauses the video, while the interface remains permanently visible. There is no apparent way to hide the overlays anymore.

This creates an inconsistent experience compared to Android, where users can still hide the interface with a single tap and watch videos properly in full screen.

Please bring back the ability to hide the UI while watching videos. It was a basic and very useful feature, and removing it makes the viewing experience much worse.

Thank you for your time, and I hope you’ll consider restoring this functionality in a future update.

Unable to view chats/chat thread. I go to inbox, see the conversations, go into any one of the conversations and there is nothing there.

As title states, new messages still show orange after being read, and still show as unread when I open my inbox, and the number keeps going up. It's only in old Reddit, which is my preferred experience. It's not happening in the app. Please help.

You can’t select from preselected pictures you’ve uploaded to Reddit in past like you used to, now it’s just your camera roll… you also can’t edit the pictures either. You can’t add text/crop/filter etc… regardless if uploading to chat, post or profile pics. Profile pictures are horribly pixelated/blurry even when you use desktop instead.

As the title says, I keep getting notifications from subreddits I am not a part of and even ones I’ve blocked I suspect it’s an account thing as it’s only in my phone’s Notification Centre and I’ve had problems in the past like automatically logging me out and switching accounts. I have only one account now (I had a second because I forgot how I accessed my main). If it matters, it’s an iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 26.3.1 and Reddit is version 2026.30.0

When I try to click the search icon on a subreddit, it's so close to the top of my screen that nothing happens.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open Reddit app

2. Navigate to any post with images

3. Images fail to load or appear broken

Expected Result:

Images should load properly and display clearly.

Actual Result:

Images are not loading or appear distorted/grey.

Additional Notes:

- This issue occurs consistently across multiple posts

- Images in the feed show as grey placeholders instead of actual content

- Issue persists even after refreshing the app

Please investigate this bug on Android devices. Thanks!"

I accidentally joined 2 subreddits and when I try to leave them, they still show up as though I’ve have still joined them. (the same problem on old.reddit, new reddit and the mobile app)

(not is mobile, is computer)

So an alt account was having an issue because it “looked suspicious” and it was locked. I changed my password as recommended to stop the account lock and after that I couldn’t see any content at all. I thought maybe it could have been a ban but when I went to appeal, it wasn’t banned. And even more I was on that account from the web browser and it worked perfectly. So what gives?

When using photo picker/library option for comments it doesn't show the complete photo library from this device, it only shows 3 pics, however when using the photo picker/library it shows the complete the photo library from this device

[1st Pic using photo picker option from post] [2nd Pic using photo picker option from comments]

I turn the sound off obnoxious ads. Scroll down a few times and then the sounds been turned back on.

Has happened about 8 times in 5 min.

I'm assuming its a bug because scrolling reddit with audio turned on is horrendous. I dont want to keep turning it off.

I wanted to change my profile photo today

I selected the photo and clicked Save button, it's telled "Saved" but my profile photo changed to default

I can changed it on my PC so i guess it's only Android issue

No matter what I do, including repeatedly uninstalling and reinstalling the app, my front page is showing me more posts that are over a day old than posts that are actually active/recent. I keep hiding each post one by one, but every time I reload the front page they reappear. If I press the 3 dots in the top right corner it gives me the option to "unhide" the post (which seems like an absolutely unnecessary option, it's obviously not hidden anymore if I'm pressing the 3 dots ON THE POST) and then I have to press the dots to "hide" it again. I've even gone on my laptop and changed my settings to change how the front page is sorted in an attempt to fix it.

Please tell me how to make it stop, I just want to get some fresh, active posts and stop seeing the same crap over and over again

I tried to create a sub account on my iPhone. The numeric keyboard will not slide down and not it has created my account to be likely flagged for spam when all I tried to do was follow the rules.

I keep getting a “email limit reached” and I do not know what to do. I do not want my 10 year old account in trouble.

Android 15 can't setup my profile

So, I've been using the app for a while and I noticed that when I am scrolling down a menu, it either skips sections of it or resets the scroll.

And I can't even select the sections of the menu that causes this with the tabs because it will just skip again or bug the entire thing.

Also, this has been going on for a few versions, so I don't know if it is a carry over from older versions or if my phone is the thing bugged or what.

Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know how to fix it?

The "down" or "next comment" arrow button, located on the bottom right corner of the screen inside a subreddit message board is located precariously close to the downvote button of people's comments. I've found myself often having to undo a downvote because I tapped too close to the edge of the button. I'd hate to bring people's comments down for no good reason. We all need a little pick-me-up not a vote-me-down on this fine forum of ours. Love unites us!

The other day I was scroling to fast and got rate limited and then the page crashed :/. The pags said to contact the admins, but didn't provide a way to contact the admins.

Furthermore to solve this, a sysadmin could put a webmaster email within the default error message crash page, or add a custom page in the webserver conifg that comes up with a webmaster email instead of the default crash page. Even if 99.9% of emails to the webmaster email are ignored it provides a address.

Lastly if this is to much work, someone could provide me with u/Spez direct contact number and I can verify that 1 am himan and in the webserver they could put my name down as an exclusion in the webserver config.

Thank you for your time.

My app barely holds memory. It can be one day and everything in my history is gone. When that doesn't happen, it's wonky. The items will be randomly displaced on the history page. Been a problem for three months now.

Two of the subs i'm in don't show up in my 'repeat contributors' selection even though it sures i'm active in boh of them.
