Readit is one of the most popular apps when it comes to managing Reddit on your Windows Phone. If you happen to be a regular user of the app, you’ll be happy to know that the app has received an update which brings a universal app UI for Windows 10 Mobile along with a handful of bug fixes and enhancements to boost the user experience.
Here’s the complete change log for the latest update:

  • App bars for post/comments/subreddits, still need to add appbars to profiles and such.
  • Hamburger menu and sidebar menu buttons moved to subreddit appbar
  • Back button will now close the app as expected when there are no more pages to navigate back to
  • View post no longer has the “header” bar at the top taking up pointless space
  • Moved view post buttons into an appbar when viewed on mobile device for space consolidations and platform UX
  • Going directly to comments now works
  • Logging in should no longer crash the app
  • Fixed up the header margins on all pages
  • Fixed up the comments header where the dropdowns are for sort and whatnot
  • Launch speed is just a tiny bit faster. Still need time to work on this though.
  • Swipe view performance increase
  • Other misc. bug fixes and improvements

Head over to the Windows Store and grab the updated Readit app for Windows Phone

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
