No wonder the official Reddit app crashes. As a result, many users turn to third-party Reddit apps. However, most of us search for Reddit posts on Google itself. However, when you try to open these links, they will open in a new tab in the browser or on the official Reddit app. Do not worry! We’ll show you how to open a Reddit link directly in a third-party app.
The situation is not as bad as before. You can view Reddit links without being forced to download the app. Obviously Reddit wants you back to the official app. However, you will learn not to give up with this article. You can open Reddit links directly on third-party apps on iPhone and Android. Let’s show you how.
How to open a link in a third-party Reddit app on Android
The Google Play Store is full of well-designed and flexible third-party apps for Reddit. We have created a list of the best free Reddit apps on Android. Once you start using a third-party Reddit app, follow the steps below to redirect all Reddit links to open on them.
Step 1: Long press on the third-party Reddit app icon on your home screen and tap on app info.
Step 2: Now, select the ‘Open by default’ option.
Step 3: Turn on the ‘Open Supported Links’ switch.
Step 4: Select all the links.
This allows all Reddit links to open by default on the third-party Reddit app. The next time you try to open a Reddit link on your browser, it will open directly on the third-party app.
Next, let’s see how we can do the same on iPhone.

Step 1: Open the Reddit link on Safari or any other browser on your iPhone.
Step 2: Click the share button. Scroll up to find more link sharing options.
Step 3: Now, you will find an option to open the link in the third-party Reddit app. We installed Apollo for Reddit, so it says ‘Open in Apollo’.
The Reddit page will now be open on the third-party Reddit app. However, if you notice, technically this app doesn’t ‘directly’ open links on third-party apps. There are a few clicks involved in this process.
But if you really want to open Reddit links on a third-party app without any intervention, you can download Apollo for iPhone and use the Safari browser.

Oh, if you haven’t used Apollo, here’s the same download link.
Note: As mentioned earlier, you can only enable Apollo to open Reddit links directly using the Safari browser for iPhone.
