Baconit 3.0.0.215
Baconit is one of the most appreciated client apps of this sort that can bring all the content from Reddit right at your fingertips once you install it onto your Windows Phone handset.
Clean front-end, with a well-thought layout
The application is made mainly for practical use rather than good looks, but the graphics are nonetheless smooth and carefully designed, so this aspect is not completely left aside.
The neat organization of the content is one of the main assets of Baconit from the visual perspective and it keeps all the commands and functions at hand, to make the operation as easy as possible.
Going through the app's various sections and navigating the long lists of reddits has a pretty fluent feel to it, as the delays in loading the content are barely noticeable.
Browse posts and manage your account
With the help of this app you can take care of several Reddit accounts and easily read your messages or send out new ones to other users from the dedicated area.
Marking subreddits as favorites, removing or adding new ones is also possible through the "Subreddit Manager" module that this utility comes with.
The front page posts, as well as the entire list of categories wait for you to explore them by accessing the corresponding section of the application.
Smart search and useful extra options
Baconit features a neat search engine that provides fats and accurate results, which include subreddits, users and posts, all of them available from the same list of results.
In case you com across some stories you really like, you can save them and this is also possible for the images inside the reddits you open. The procedure of submitting your own pics and links is a breeze and the content is uploaded momentarily.
There is even a specialized synchronization feature called BaconSync that will enable you to ensure your visited Reddit pages are synced on all devices. You only have to set a pass code for the account on the device you are currently using and the process will be carried out automatically.
