If you have Alien Blue Pro, then this will offer will be available for you. Pretty good deal. Update to the latest version of the app to receive the offer.

What is Alien Blue? (thanks TightBottom): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_Blue

What is Reddit Gold? (From MacRumours): Reddit Gold is a membership program that provides perks such as turning off ads, custom themes, custom avatars, new comment highlighting, subreddit filtering, saved posts and comments categorization, and more. Reddit Gold is $3.99/month or $29.99/year.

I did the math, savings of up to US$119.96 if you already have a Alien Blue Pro.

    Does it work if you buy it now?

    • justcallmeboss on 12/03/2016 - 19:40

      Doesn't work straight away, but it'll be activated in a few weeks

      • ronnknee on 13/03/2016 - 00:16

        How do you know for sure?

        • justcallmeboss on 13/03/2016 - 00:27

          Oh I'm sorry, misinterpreted your first comment. Not sure it will work at all…

      I'll add that in the description, cheers TB.

    I've heard that it very well may be an April Fools joke.

    • justcallmeboss on 12/03/2016 - 19:45

      Pretty bad joke

        I think it said that it would take 3 weeks to process. landing right on April Fools Day as this offer was valid since yesterday.

      They are moving to a subscription based model for the app, Reddit gold = pro version. This is just to prevent the outrage for the people that have paid 5 bucks for Alien Blue back in the day.

      • furythree on 12/03/2016 - 22:22

        relay for reddit is a better app anyway
        even supports OLED night mode, left and right hand support
        thumbnail previews, gif and video playback within preview, one handed operation (e.g. double tap and drag to zoom)

        its free or half the price of alien blue for adfree

          Relay is only on Android. Alien Blue is only on iPhone. I don't even know why you're comparing them.

      • mattelinc on 13/03/2016 - 08:35

        I paid for it before it became the official Reddit client. Why aren't I "pro"? Hmmm

    Gold is as useful as a holey condom

    P.S. I believe they stopped support for the app and free users cannot upgrade to Pro now. They are developing a new app for iOS.

  • [Deactivated] on 12/03/2016 - 20:08

    oh people don't use https://m.reddit.com ?

    • CheapCoffee on 12/03/2016 - 23:47

      There are so many good reddit clients out there (esp on android).

      • AlienC on 13/03/2016 - 02:28

    Paying for Reddit is like paying for Wikipedia.

      I pay for Wikipedia and Winrar. Yes I know I'm a baller.

      To be fair, paying for Wikipedia is more comparable to donating to a charity.

      • Diji1 on 13/03/2016 - 09:57

        Sure.

        If the charity is devoted to seeing how much cocaine and hookers Jimbo and Co. can get through in a year. God knows they aren't paying for the questionable content that the users generate.

  • figarow on 12/03/2016 - 20:55

    All this for some markup?

    Reddit Gold gives you discounts on a wide range of stores too. I've had it for a year and I've found the selection to be much less unfortunately.

  • lancedefrance on 12/03/2016 - 21:05

    I have the iOS pro version installed, can I take advantage of this deal? and how do I activate it?

    • arkanis50 on 12/03/2016 - 21:36

      I just opened the app and got a prompt about redeeming the offer.

  • AlienC on 13/03/2016 - 02:27

    How does this compare to baconreader and now for reddit and etc

    Which client app has the most or best features

  • lancedefrance on 13/03/2016 - 04:41

    So this just happened and I am really annoyed, I wasnt logged in with my reddit account on my phone when I opened the app and guess what I tried to dismiss the message so that I can login and redeem it and now the pop up is not coming up as it would only ask you once per iOS ID. How stupid is that instead of you can redeem it and would redirect you to the login screen to enter your credentials.

    Really annoyed and would appreciate it if there is a way that I can redeem this, I tried restarting the app but the pop up never came back!!!

    • lazydesi on 13/03/2016 - 04:44

      open app - select front page- banner should be on top.

        Thanks so much, yes figured it out, I guess I am half asleep and should have just left this till the morning but thanks for the input.

  • lancedefrance on 13/03/2016 - 04:51

    One more question

    Would this gold get applied to my PC account through a browser as well or just through Alien Blue App? would I be able to save threads under different categories for example when using firefox on a PC? In other words is the gold connected with the app or the account?

    • DrStinge on 13/03/2016 - 09:17

      It would be linked to the account (hence usable on PC - if this is a real deal afterall)

    And I got the Alien Blue Pro app for free too :D

        Same, select Restore to PRO and it just went DONE.

        Then select the 4 years of gold. Nice evening.

    If I had $1million, I still couldn't find a reason for Reddit Gold. Even if I was on there 24/7, I don't see any problem/value/benefit.

    Well. I was wrong. I now have 4 years of Reddit Gold.
