Two new app updates have appeared in the Windows Phone Store. An update to Reddit Pix and 9Gag fixes a few bugs and improves app performance.
If you are a Reddit lover, you will love this free app for Windows Phone 8. Reddit Pix is a simple app that lets you browse through uploaded media on the popular social news and entertainment website. This is by far one of the best Reddit apps in the Windows Phone Store to date.
Reddit Pix features the ability to add custom subreddits, save images to your library, share posts through email, SMS, or social networks. You can also launch videos in Internet Explorer or Metrotube (a third party YouTube app). Reddit comments can also be launched in IE or Baconit (a third-party Reddit app).
The new update to Reddit Pix bumps the version number to 1.1.0.0 and adds bug fixes, a change log, and an option to always show the Appbar.
9Gag, the popular image-based social media website, now has an updated app in the Windows Phone Store. Created by Rudy Huyn, the man behind 6tag, 6sec, and 6snap, has updated his 9Gag app to feature better management of .GIF images. The version number has also been bumped to 2.2.1.1.
