Reddit Introduces New Ways to Share Content on iOS / Android, Improved Embedding for Publishers

Reddit is rolling out new features to make it easier for redditors and publishers to share content on and off the platform.

In line with our work to make Reddit easier to use, redditors can now quickly and easily share Reddit content they love on other social platforms without compromising their Reddit identity.

On Reddit's native apps for iOS and Android, you'll now find:
● An updated 'shared link' preview for text posts that redditors have shared via messaging services. The appearance of the shared post now includes a visual preview of the content, the subreddit name, and total upvotes and comments.



● The ability to share content directly from Reddit to Instagram Stories without having to first screenshot or download content.


● A new custom 'share sheet' featuring the redditor's most used sharing channels which appears when the user click on the share icon under a post, making it easier to publish without having to leave Reddit.


● A one-tap screenshot-sharing experience that allows users to share content without saving images to their device – meaning they can link back to the content rather than only sending a screenshot.


Reddit is also making it easier for publishers to show Reddit content on their own sites with the launch of a new toolbox.


This new toolbox comes with easy-to-use, self-serve tooling and includes features that clearly outline the predictable height of a post or comment, more prominently showcase the community the content is from and display the total tally of upvotes and comments. Publishers can also now add a call to action to join the conversation. Learn more here.

You can download Reddit from the App Store for free.
