After a quite long time, Baconit has received a complete revamp, which makes it even better. Baconit is one of the best Reddit clients for Windows PC and Windows Phone. Although, it is a pretty old app but now, the latest update has brought several new features.
Reddit is another great source of information, where you can ask questions and get help from thousands of other users. This front page of internet helps users to navigate through various news those are categorized using sub-reddit aka category. However, the web version homepage looks quite messy. If you go to use it through mobile, you can get some UI related issue. Therefore, this is far better to install a Reddit client like Baconit to get a better user experience and features.
Baconit is a free Reddit client and it has almost all the features, what the web version generally comes with. Along with that, you will get the following features in this app.
- Flip view to navigate through posts
- Trending sub-reddit to provide all trending news around Reddit
- Upvote/downvote and comment on posts
- Social share buttons
- Beautiful wallpaper setup
- Real time comment update
- Submit posts
- Check messages
- Save posts
Although, this is possible to browse Reddit anonymously using Baconit, you can use your own account as well. To upvote/downvote or comment on any post, you have to sign in to your account.
Baconit Reddit client for Windows PC
If you are using Windows 10, it will be around 19MB in size and you can download it from Windows Store. In terms of user interface, this is just more than awesome. Baconit starts with “frontpage” sub-reddit but you can certainly change it. However, if you want to get all the features, you should definitely sign in to your Reddit account. But, first time users can get some problem to find the path to sign in.
Anyway, to sign in, just open the Baconit app and click on the button that shows three horizontal lines.
Following that, click on Account.
Then, you will get a Log In and Sign Up button. Just go through the Log In option to use your existing account. Otherwise, this is also possible to create new account. After signing in, you can upvote/downvote any post, comment on posts and check messages.
On the other hand, you can save any post and read that later.
Search for it in the Windows Store to download it. Else click here to get it.
Baconit for Windows Phone
If you sign in to the same Reddit account, you can get all saved posts on Windows Phone. In fact, you will get all the features of Baconit for Windows PC on Windows Phone. But, you will get some differences in sign in and features.
When you open Baconit on your Windows Phone, you will be greeted with the following screen:
Here you will get the option to enable/disable automatic update and 18+ content. Now, to sign in to your account, just tap on the button that shows three dots and log in.
Thereafter, you can enter your log in credential to get started.
You can obviously use Reddit through the default browser of Windows Phone, but a Reddit client will surely provide better experience.
