This specific "build" is often advertised on third-party APK hosting sites. It claims to unlock "Premium" features—such as ad removal and extra customization—without payment. However, because Boost is a third-party app that relies on Reddit's official API, "modding" it presents unique challenges.
: While less customizable, the official Reddit app is the only version guaranteed to be secure and fully supported.
: Following Reddit's 2023 API policy changes, most third-party apps (including Boost) no longer work for free users. A "mod" cannot bypass Reddit's server-side restrictions on data access; if the app isn't functioning via official channels, a mod likely won't fix that.
: When you log into a modded app, you are handing your login token to an unknown developer. A Safer Alternative
: Many users found that by creating their own "private" subreddit and becoming a moderator, the official Boost app (downloaded from the Play Store) continues to function due to how Reddit handles moderator API limits.
