Reddit price increases threaten popular Apollo app

By Juli Clover, MacRumors

Popular Reddit app Apollo might not be able to operate as is in the future due to planned API pricing that Reddit is implementing.

[Apollo describes itself as “a beautiful, native iOS design, smooth, customizable gestures, fast loading pages, a supercharged Media Viewer experience.”]

Apollo developer Christian Selig was told Wednesday that Reddit plans to charge $12,000 for 50 million API requests. Last month, Apollo made seven billion requests, which would mean Selig would need to pay $1.7 million per month or $20 million per year to Reddit to keep the app running.
