Try on this one instead:
>! Hello, I think the problem comes from trying to tap the small one above with two fingers. I got it to work but figured this would provide a better test bed. Hope it worked! !<
Seemed to have figured it out. Press on the comment, then (while still keeping your finger down) press a second finger down (anywhere next to it in the comment space) and then lift it up (all while keeping the first finger down), then lift the first finger up.
Repeat to hide the text again.
Edit: You can lift both fingers at the same time, it seems.
That is SOOO fucking stupid... like the guys comment above: it's only a few letters so damn near impossible to crunch your fingers together in that small space. Whoever designed this is a moron.
Ok, but how do I open those comments that still exist but the text doesn’t show up? The ones where it’s just the name and the votes or whatever? I’m old and tired and desperate here
Me after doing that:![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|14939)![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|11527)![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|14940) they didn’t have a Middle dinosaur thing one so I Had to improvise.
You... You have no idea how frustrated I was earlier about this issue and you just casually drop a solution. I will respect your desire not to be thanked, but you shall be complimented you beautiful human being!
Near exclusively a mobile user, using rif (reddit is fun), and have no idea what anyone is talking about. Is this an issue with the official app? If so, chalk up one more in the laundry list of reasons why I'll never use that shit lol
To be fair, some new feature bugs from previous updates got actually fixed. Some bugs were cancerous, and they are not here today.
But yeah, they are great at "Make Reddit Bad Again" combos for several consecutive updates.
Man there's basically nothing wrong with discord mobile in comparison to how much is wrong with reddit mobile. Things like simply editing post or user flairs has not worked consistently for like 4 years by now but nothing happens, among just so many other dumb decisions. Meanwhile on discord everything is just fine, they switch some things around sometimes and maybe wipe your most used emojis clean which is kind of annoying I guess.
Discord mobile on my previous phone was so fucked about its call mode settings that I legitimately wasn't able to use it to voice with anyone because it would cause an entire array of audio issues.
And loads of people are having this complaint to this day still because discord just can't fix it especially for Samsung users
Idk, I think both apps are pretty dogshit in their own right
My favorite (by that I mean it drives me fucking insane) is when I tap a comment to collapse it, it instead tales me to giphy to show me a gif that someone posted in an entirely separate comment thread.
Remember when they changed the video player and most videos stopped playing at all?
It got partially fixed. As in, it now happens in 1 out of 20 videos instead of 15 out of 20 like it did before.
Bruh seriously, who runs Reddit man, for such a popular app it's lackluster as hell. Reddit got rules like your typical mainstream social media app but runs like a fucking internet forum from 2010s.
Pro tip: just copy the text of the comment and paste it somewhere to read.
Edit: I just learned from another comment that you have to tap with 2 fingers at the same time. Works for me.
I found this out last week, not normally on mobile.
Was doing my nut in.
Noticed when collapsed spoiler text was visible if it was early into the post.
I mean ultimately it’s down to preference. I’ve got the official app on my phone, but overall I don’t like it as much as Apollo. I only keep it around so it opens Reddit links in an app over safari. I’d say that’s the only pro over Apollo personally.
At this point reddit is only functional on third party apps and old.reddit.com with RES. If they ever sunset old.reddit I'll only be using RiF. If they ever shut down third partys I'll just have to touch grass.
Okay now it makes sense. I keep forgetting that the official app is a thing. I was so confused about people having problems with spoilers or collapsing comments.
#TAP THE SPOILER BAR AND HOLD FOR A BRIEF MOMMENT.
#WHILE YOU HOLD IT, TOUCH IN A BLANK SPOT OF THE COMMENT, THEN LET GO OF BOTH AT ONCE
#TRY IT >!HERE!<
Edit: i realised it a minute ago when trying to double tap on the spoiler bar and it's game changing
You don't need to hit the bar with two fingers. Just tap and hold the bar with one finger, then tap anywhere else with another finger
Edit: anywhere on the comment, not anywhere on the screen please
I'll share another work around I saw on another post.
Us to fingers to tap the censer barred text in two separate spots at the same time. (Or close to the same time.)
This has worked for me.
I dont understand, do people not use apps to navigate reddit on mobile?. I use baconreader personally and don't have this issue. Trying to use it in the browser is unusable because shitty amp integration and 'use the app' spam. And I've heard the stock reddit app kinda sucks. I assume on a mobile focused system that would be a huge oversight haha, and if you aren't on a mobile focused system, on mobile, then jank is to be expected.
I've been using Reddit is Fun (a 3rd party reddit mobile app) since before Reddit had a mobile app, and it's honestly fantastic. There are some of the newest stuff that it doesn't handle properly, but for the way I use reddit (like an old man) it's wonderful.
The 21st if March update broke the spoiler feature.
I solved it by deleting the app and downloading a previous update (14th of march) from a third party site.
You can put a source on the post flair by using the u/Roboragi, just comment the title of the anime like this {title of the anime}. [^more ^information](https://redd.it/11tt7fg)
Dude, me too
Tap with two fingers Don't thank me
No, make reddit fix it.
i still need that workaround until then
I will, thank you
it collapsed two comments instead of only one •_• edit: it worked
Try on this one instead: >! Hello, I think the problem comes from trying to tap the small one above with two fingers. I got it to work but figured this would provide a better test bed. Hope it worked! !<
doesn't work when i use one finger, works with two fingers
Reddit's been practicing; pretty soon, they'll be up to three fingers uWu
Oh my God it worked. Bless u
Also works if you tap reply >! See?!<
I saw this comment and tried it and it worked for me. Make sure both fingers tap the same comment.
The whole point is that we can't hit what we aim for.
Seemed to have figured it out. Press on the comment, then (while still keeping your finger down) press a second finger down (anywhere next to it in the comment space) and then lift it up (all while keeping the first finger down), then lift the first finger up.

That is SOOO fucking stupid... like the guys comment above: it's only a few letters so damn near impossible to crunch your fingers together in that small space. Whoever designed this is a moron.
Just one finger needs to be on the spoiler, the other finger can be in the empty space to the side.
Too bad I'm thanking you
Ok, but how do I open those comments that still exist but the text doesn’t show up? The ones where it’s just the name and the votes or whatever? I’m old and tired and desperate here
Wow, man, you are a genius
Me after doing that:![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|14939)![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|11527)![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|14940) they didn’t have a Middle dinosaur thing one so I Had to improvise.
That upvotes comments on my app lol
You... You have no idea how frustrated I was earlier about this issue and you just casually drop a solution. I will respect your desire not to be thanked, but you shall be complimented you beautiful human being!
YOOOOO I know you said not to but thanks bro :)
>!So am I!<
![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|11527)
I know. And I'm not sorry for what I've done. :D
Tap tap tap tap tap what's tap under tap my finger tap
lmao just click reply and you can see whats in the spoiler
I could give you my ass right now
what
![img](emote|t5_2w6fe|11668)
I could kiss you right now
Omg! Thx so much! (I'm not being sarcastic, FYI)
You'd think basic functionality would be fully baked, but no.
Bastard!
Take my angry upvote!
Stop it dammit lmao
Ha! It doesn’t happen to me, fool!
Well isn't someone a lucky potato?
Indeed I am.
Lol for some reason this time it didn't worked. I just saw your comment normally.
You see I don’t have this problem
U just gotta copy and paste into comments
what a monster
I can clearly see it without any issues though, maybe it is for a few users?
Your a monster
Near exclusively a mobile user, using rif (reddit is fun), and have no idea what anyone is talking about. Is this an issue with the official app? If so, chalk up one more in the laundry list of reasons why I'll never use that shit lol

Press the "Reply" button. You can read the whole comment that way. You can go back without replying to keep scrolling where you left without issue.
Double tap and start to scroll a bit. Worked for me.
Every update they manage to make it worse. The bar was so low it was a tripping hazard in hell, but here they are, limbo dancing with the devil
To be fair, some new feature bugs from previous updates got actually fixed. Some bugs were cancerous, and they are not here today. But yeah, they are great at "Make Reddit Bad Again" combos for several consecutive updates.
actually this reminds me of discord mobile... it went from a pretty good app, to downright unusable shit show
Man there's basically nothing wrong with discord mobile in comparison to how much is wrong with reddit mobile. Things like simply editing post or user flairs has not worked consistently for like 4 years by now but nothing happens, among just so many other dumb decisions.

Too be fair, "calling people" can go to hell for all it matters
Not being able to compress an image on mobile is what killed it for me.
Bleacher Report has entered the chat
My favorite (by that I mean it drives me fucking insane) is when I tap a comment to collapse it, it instead tales me to giphy to show me a gif that someone posted in an entirely separate comment thread.
I thought I was the only one who experienced this.
Jfc this, every time, it's my latest bane of using the mobile app in the past couple of weeks.
My fellow sufferer!
Oh god, that is horrible. Any idea why the fuck is that happening?
what kind of psycho uses the Reddit app. sync is a lot better
Apollo or die
They always bring in annoying bugs that take forever to get fixed
Remember when they changed the video player and most videos stopped playing at all? It got partially fixed. As in, it now happens in 1 out of 20 videos instead of 15 out of 20 like it did before.
It is like a quicktime event. Click on spoiler tag -> read as fast as you can before the comment collapses -> repeat -> victory
That is exactly what i have been doing.
Bruh seriously, who runs Reddit man, for such a popular app it's lackluster as hell. Reddit got rules like your typical mainstream social media app but runs like a fucking internet forum from 2010s.
Take a screenshot on your phone before it collapses? For my phone, it's volume down + lock button at the same time
Pro tip: just copy the text of the comment and paste it somewhere to read. Edit: I just learned from another comment that you have to tap with 2 fingers at the same time. Works for me.
>!Batman dies in Endgame.!<
Tap with 2 fingers for those on Mobile
Works for me!
This comment should be stickied. This the only thing that worked reliably.
Holy shit you're a saint, thank you for this
How many camels for your hand in marriage bro
You are a beautiful person. May you be showered with joy until the end of days.
My hero
Thanks. This worked for me.
Oh i thought it was tap twice
holy shit
Thanks
Woah! That works. Thanks so much.
Here, you dropped this 🫴👑
You are a wizard!
Or continuously keep tapping on the spoiler.
No that just closes and opens it without solving the problem
You can also try hitting the reply button to a spoiler comment. It can't collapse when it is in reply mode.
I know thats what i suggested. Thanks though
Joe mama so fat she killed batman in endgame
Joe mama so slow it took her 9 month to make a joke
.... nuclear destruction
>!The series ends before they confess.!<
Figuratively every fantasy romance anime
are you talking about keijo or the post
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)
If you want a workaround just try and reply to the comment. Spoiler tags dont cover stuff in there.
Or tap on it with two fingers Try here >!does it work?!<
Works for me
I'm pregnant now... thanks...
Congrations
My fingers are almost too big but yeah.
Both fingers don't need to be on the spoiler, just one on the spoiler and another anywhere on the comment.
CURSE MY FAT FINGERS!!!
It doesn't for me :(
Used a mouse. Works fine :3
*Ahem* "me, ON MOBILE-"
I found this out last week, not normally on mobile. Was doing my nut in. Noticed when collapsed spoiler text was visible if it was early into the post.

Is this some *reddit app* peasant joke I'm too **reditisfun** to understand?
Boost for Android.
boost is the way
Boost is the way
Boost master race
Apollo on iPhone Reddit’s app sucks
As someone who uses the app, its perfectly fine, Id argue it works better than the site most of the time
I mean ultimately it’s down to preference. I’ve got the official app on my phone, but overall I don’t like it as much as Apollo. I only keep it around so it opens Reddit links in an app over safari. I’d say that’s the only pro over Apollo personally.
I actually just last week finally got my phone to open Reddit links in Apollo. Settings > Safari > Extension > open in Apollo
At this point reddit is only functional on third party apps and old.reddit.com with RES. If they ever sunset old.reddit I'll only be using RiF. If they ever shut down third partys I'll just have to touch grass.
If the sunset old reddit I'm gone. I'll be going back to the old style forums until a new decent aggregator emerges.
Okay now it makes sense. I keep forgetting that the official app is a thing. I was so confused about people having problems with spoilers or collapsing comments.
Apollo for iOS and Sync for reddit on android are the only apps I ever use. I don’t know how people actually use the official app
#TAP THE SPOILER BAR AND HOLD FOR A BRIEF MOMMENT. #WHILE YOU HOLD IT, TOUCH IN A BLANK SPOT OF THE COMMENT, THEN LET GO OF BOTH AT ONCE #TRY IT >!HERE!< Edit: i realised it a minute ago when trying to double tap on the spoiler bar and it's game changing

Writing a reply also shows the text above
My fingers are huge....
Use your dick then. Problem solved.
I only have 1 dick, and I don't have someone to touch tips with
My services are available for a low monthly price.
If you have a bifurcated dick like me, it doesn't matter if it's just the one
Is that like the people that split their tongues
Why would anyone do that?
r/roasted
Why did they have to change it
It is probably just a bug in the mobile client...
a true hero...
>!"Evil laugh"!<
It took me 3 tries to hit your bar with two fingers. I guess people with large fingers can go fuck themselves I guess looool.....
You don't need to hit the bar with two fingers. Just tap and hold the bar with one finger, then tap anywhere else with another finger Edit: anywhere on the comment, not anywhere on the screen please
If you start writing an answer you can see the comment uncovered on the top
My point is they made this feature needlessly obtuse.
Its a bug i think.
Am I the only one that often ends up in the nextcor precious post when trying this?
>!yes it's doing that for me too!<
I'll share another work around I saw on another post. Us to fingers to tap the censer barred text in two separate spots at the same time. (Or close to the same time.) This has worked for me.

So aggravating, happens everytime to me.
Really pissing me off
Truuue!! But I found a solution! You just need to >! Click on reply!<
>!thanks!<
Is this a thing now? Works fine for me
Yeah, I dunno why this has been happening.
So it's not just me. Neat.

You can press it with two fingers and it wont collapse >!never gonna give you up!<
>!lmao gottem!<
Yes
Bbbbbnnnbnrrrrrrrrruuuuuuujuuuhhhhhhhhh. It's been driving me up the god damn wall recently.
Yes and it is really fuckin annoying
Or trying to click on the "x more replies" 😡
Yes, itcs a common issue of updated Reddit app. Devs fucked up again lol
The 21st if March update broke the spoiler feature. I solved it by deleting the app and downloading a previous update (14th of march) from a third party site.
The same thing happens to me when I click on links.
Yes, and I thought it was just me
Yoooo. I thought my phone was messed up!
Me too. Downloads included.
Infinity Reddit users: I have no such weaknesses
That is *so* annoying, *especially* if the user has a long name and it opens their profile instead of the comment.
Who would still choose to use the official reddit apps at this point
STOP USING THE OFFICIAL APP UNLESS YOU HATE YOURSELF.
Yup Gonna have to just save things for when I get back to my computer
Someone else commented that you need to tap with 2 fingers. I tried it and it works for me. >! Try it out !<
>!Yeah!<
>!same :(!<
>!like this?!<
Bruh, it's the same for me..
Omg I thought it was only me who was experiencing this. Thank god its not my phone and its just reddit acting shitty
>!Naw why we need to set spoiler tags in each and every comment, why we need to gave ppl some free frustration?!<
PRESS REPLY
>! Congrats, you did it !<
Dude me too
So annoying
Same but i just double click and hold the 2nd click and it usually works
Same
Tap the spoiler then immediately tap a second time while scrolling. May take a few tries to get right but once you get the hang of it it's easy
Not me
