Hello my CommunityHome hub post constantly goes blank on my mobile app (iPhone). Now it’s happening on browser too (both iPhone and laptop).
I already tried clearing history and cache, restarting phone/computer and even deleting and reinstalling the app. I have a feeling the users of the sub I mod are experiencing the same. How do I fix this?
I'm not sure how those of you who build apps here do it but I really can't do this anymore.
If you have to reject any review request, please say why.
I have gone through the docs, written privately (chats), and still no one can tell me why my API url is rejected. If I do not know why, I cannot correct it.
Once again, I have gone through the docs and have done everything right. Would it really be the end of the world to include a text along side the rejection button/label to say why it was rejected? The reviewer already knows why and can simply state it so the developer can fix whatever the issue is. You can even just have checkboxes the reviewer can click on to reference the violation and show it to the developer. Anything at all.
Its okay if my app idea does not work but at least I can come up with something else, do a YouTube tutorial video or advice someone else on how to build apps for Reddit. How do I do that if I have no idea about what is going on?
I'm done. Sorry, but I am not good at Guess Driven Development.
To those of you still building, good luck 🙏🏻
[UPDATE]
An admin has looked into it and the issue has been resolved. Thank you all for your support 🙏🏾.
The feature request however still stands as it will make development easier for future devs. I also believe it will make things easier for the reviewers on the long run. Thank you.
GuessThatWord is an interactive, emoji based puzzle game. Decode the emojis, guess the word.
Made it over the past few weeks in my free time, published it today and waiting for the Approval. Would love any kind of feedback.
Anyone can play it on r/GuessThatWord

Today I posted a few posts using my game app (qshots), and I noticed a sudden surge in the leaderboard within the first five minutes. There were also an unusually high number of shares, and one of my game posts was automatically flagged as spam. Has anyone else experienced this, or is there a known reason why this might happen?
Hi r/Devvit!
For the hackathon, I made a simple golf game where you can easily create and play your own courses.
I’d love to hear your feedback!
Hi, this is a feature request as a devvitor.
We can see which public subreddits our app is installed by going to the app username account, but we cannot see which version they are on.
This is so that we can request mods to update the apps, specially where mods have removed app permissions and the mass update requests cant seem to do so.
I also noticed that if mods remove app permissions, the apps might not function properly. I saw this in one of my app installations on a public sub. So if we can see this info, we can inform the mods about why the app is appearing broken and suggest them the remedies.
- Some mods do so to uninstall by removing their mod accounts.. but this isnt the right way. Apps are still functional there and broken.
Edit : I got to know by SampleOfNone that bot bouncer informs mods when the permssions are changed ... so we can use mod triggers to inform mods of these things... so I will implement these in my app for future.
Optionally, allow us to request update all installations via CLI for urgent bug fixes (though we are able to do so in support tickets or via modmail)

Just posting a follow up update from the first post over 4 months ago.

This is for inspiration for fellow devs, I built the Devvit app MatchPal. You have seen it over the last few weeks for the Worldcup. Ultimately its a football app that is designed to complement live Redditor discussions.
Its been a journey, I have added unique features like XG, Live Chat, and Channel insights and it works pretty darn well!
For the stats, I have managed to hit tier 5 with a forecast of hitting tier 6 soon. My best day is currently 75,000 unique qualified engagers.
Now I am a little annoyed with the new announcement with recurring payments as I feel like its still quite hard to hit even with an app of my size. Similarly, the funds are low, a lot lower.
I have asked the Devvit team multiple times but I feel like there needs to be other ways for businesses like mine to generate revenue from these apps, my operating costs are near to $1,000 a month (insane i know).
For those who have used or seen my app, whats your feedback? I only want to improve it.
And for those who havent seen or used my app, hopefully this can be some inspiration to make Devvit games and apps!
Idk what do you think? Figured I'd post here and see if my idea has any weight.
This is Scrawl.
Every post is basically a tiny physics course drawn on notebook paper. There’s a ball, a cup, and whatever nonsense the course maker decided to put in your way.
You get a crayon budget, draw ramps/bridges/whatever structure you think will work, then hit Roll it! and your drawing turns into real physics. The fun part is that your ramps don’t just magically stay in place. They fall/tip etc.
Fewest tries gets the top spot on that post’s scoreboard.
The part I’m most excited about is the course editor. You can make a course right from inside any post, but you can’t publish it until you beat it yourself using the same crayon budget everyone else gets. Your try count becomes par.
So every user-made course is guaranteed beatable, because the creator had to suffer through their own creation first.
Try it here! https://www.reddit.com/r/PlayScrawl/
Working on this game for the Reddit Game with a hook hackathon. Try it out. Thanks!
I'm sure I remember seeing one, but with the massive influx of apps I'm struggling to find it again
Looking for an app that shows an all time sub community karma leaderboard
Like the monthly '1% Top Commenter' leaderboard on the app but doesn't reset just keeps on counting
I've been using a "self served" app API token generated at https://old.reddit.com/prefs/apps for a custom fork of the RedReader app.
This week my build randomly stopped working showing API login errors. I went to make a new app API token at https://old.reddit.com/prefs/apps but couldn't which got me to this post in this sub about Reddit's new "Responsible Builder Policy confirming the ability to "self serve" app tokens has been removed. They also stated "current access won’t be affected" but the timing of all of this seems a bit odd given my issues.
Any ideas on things I could check/test?
I have not received any email or notification. I only made the game yesterday and it was working fine then. I received no warning or notice. https://www.reddit.com/user/smallwordsgame/ says its banned. I am really confused and upset as I literally have no mechanism or feedback to understand what happened.
Hi Devvit!
We've been building Redeal—a poker-inspired roguelike deckbuilder built on Devvit Web (React/Vite). Players draw custom cards, buy Jokers and consumables from the Shop, trigger multipliers, and compete on community leaderboards.
@hono/trpc-server to leverage tRPC v11. This gave us end-to-end type safety between our iframe client and server procedures, which made building the card game logic much cleaner.Happy to answer any questions about the Hono/tRPC integration or state compression. Thanks for the feedback!
Hi, I have made a game and approved by reddit team, however, I cannot create a new post with the app bot, and i clicked on the account bot it shows it's banned. Here's some error :

Thank you for your help.
My Devvit web app lets users create interactive posts. Server-side I do:
await reddit.submitCustomPost({
title,
runAs: "USER",
userGeneratedContent: { text, imageUrls },
});
When I create a post (I'm a mod), it's authored by my account. When a regular user creates one, it silently posts as the app account instead. Comments work fine for everyone via submitComment({ runAs: "USER" }) My app is still Private / not approved yet. asUser grants SUBMIT_POST + SUBMIT_COMMENT.
Is posting as a non-mod user gated behind app review / going public? Or am I missing something? Thanks!
For context, i made a Devvit app and submitted it for approval, but it was rejected.
I was curious to know whether the rejection means that the whole app can't be published as a Reddit app? Or rather, it can still be published after fixing the main highlighted issues about the app.
These are the issues listed;

As mentioned in our previous announcement, beginning August 1, 2026, the Reddit Developer Funds program will transition to a new model that rewards developers for sustained user engagement on the platform.
Our goal with these changes is to encourage developers to continue investing in their existing games and apps while growing their communities over time. While the one-time tiered payouts have been valuable for helping developers earn rewards quickly, they have also encouraged the community to move on to new projects rather than continue improving and expanding existing ones. We want to better support long-term development by rewarding apps that continue to engage redditors month after month.
We believe this new model will provide more predictable earnings, reward sustained growth, and help developers plan ongoing development while building lasting games and businesses on Devvit.
The full program terms are available on the updated Reddit Developer Funds page.
TL;DR
We're excited for this next chapter and look forward to seeing developers continue building experiences that keep communities engaged for the long term.
