  • That doesn’t change the fact that it is possible. Also some people have vacation homes, or use airbnbs that have better wifi speeds, or will be willing to pay for faster hotel speeds. It’s totally possible, but yes, your point stands that connection speeds matter and I would lower expectations if you are traveling.

    Hopefully we get some deeper in depth reviews out there in the coming weeks. A lot of these reviewers only had the weekend and rushed these out. SpawnPoiint, which actually had a good review, admitted that during his review period he never even ran down the battery once. And according to Tested’s review it only has a 4-5.5 hour battery life. The Verge article is also not the best review compared to some reviews like Tested, who tested this on multiple different connection speeds. Having read/watched most of these reviews, the Verge one seems to be the lowest effort.













  • Here is a guide I wrote previously on how I did this step by step for reddit sync. It’ll be similar for the other apps but I haven’t tried any of those.

    1. Uninstall reddit sync from your phone.

    2. Go here and download a clean redditsync apk file (click the blue “DOWNLOAD APK” Button) This is the APK I used: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/red-apps-ItdIsync-for-reddit/sync-for-redditv23-05-03-1718-release/sync-for-reddit-v23-05-031718-2-android-apk-download/

    3. Go here and download Revanced Manager APK file and install it. https://qithub.com/revanced/revanced-manager

    4. Go to reddit.com/prefs/aps and go to the bottom where it says “Create Application” (you have to login here to do this)

    5. Name it whatever you want, select “installed app” and under redirect uri, type http://redditsync/auth then click “create app”

    6. After you create the app, you should see it under the title “Developed Applications”. Under the name you gave it you should see a random string of numbers, letters, and symbols. This is your client ID. You will use this in the next step.

    7. Using a file manager on your phone, navigate to /sdcard/ and create a txt file titled “reddit_client_id_revanced.txt”

    8. Open the text file you just created and paste in your Client ID from step 7. Make sure it is on the top line of the text file with no spaces or indents before or after the ID.

    9. Open Revanced Manager on your phone. Select Patcher on the bottom, click “select application”, click the “storage” button on the bottom right. Navigate to the location where you downloaded the clean redditsync apk in step 2.

    10. When you select the apk file in step 10, you should see that it has selected 2 patches (change Oauth client ID and Disable ads). Click "Patch’ in the bottom right.

    11. Allow the patching to occur and read everything on the screen to check for errors. If the Oauth failed to patch, revisit step 8.

    12. Click install. Google play will likely warn you, expand the option and click “install anyway”, if it asks to scan the app, decline scanning.

    13. Launch the application, run through the setup and re-log into your account if you want.

    14. Profit
