Apollo for Reddit Gets Better Private Messages Support, Auto Collapsing Child Comments, More

The popular Apollo app for Reddit has been updated with numerous new features including better private messages support, auto collapsing child comments, new moderator capabilities, and more.

Apollo is a beautiful Reddit app built for fast navigation with an incredibly powerful set of features. Thanks to features like the Jump Bar, fully customizable gestures, and a super-charged Media Viewer, browsing Reddit has never been this amazing.


What's New In This Version:
- The biggest change in Apollo 1.5 has been the most requested one, better private messages support! Now you can view and reply to Reddit messages in a beautiful, fully-threaded conversational message view, things like seeing sent messages are so great now. This includes being able to go into separate inbox sections, like purely viewing comment replies.
- Added an awesome new Pro feature: auto collapsing child comments. Now when reading threads you can collapse everything that isn't a top-level comment, making reading the juiciest replies even easier. You can have it automatically always do it, or remember your setting per subreddit. Or manually!
- ANOTHER awesome new Pro feature (well two): auto hiding read posts (keeps that feed fresh), and auto marking posts read on scroll. Also an option to have a permanent floating "hide read posts" button. Fixes a bug around hiding too.
- AMAZING moderator features. I think Apollo has to now be one of the most full-featured apps for Reddit moderators out there. First, Mod Mail! You can now view, respond to, action, sort, search, filter mod mail (both new and legacy, all threaded), includes "user report cards". Mod Queue. Mod Log. Mod Zone for quick access. Traffic stats. Edit rules. Lock comments. Edit AutoMod config. View/edit/add removal reasons. Report to Admins. Quick mod actions. Edit banned/muted/approved users. Comment nuke (delete comment and all replies). These aren't just web wrappers, they're all native and built right into the app.
