Apollo Reborn adds on-device AI summaries and no-key mode
Apollo Reborn 3.3.0 adds a theme builder that lets people create, save, manage, import, and export custom themes. The new AI summaries feature works on iOS 26 or newer and is turned off by default. It uses Apple , so summaries are created on the device instead of being sent to an outside AI service.
It can summarize posts, comment discussions, and linked articles. Post summaries appear near the top of the comments view, and discussion summaries appear above the first comment in larger threads. The summary text appears piece by piece as tokens and is cached on disk, so reopening the same thread is instant.
Separate controls let users choose which summary types to use, and Tap to Summarize avoids loading a linked article page until the user asks. A new no-API-key mode lets people sign in through reddit.com and then browse, vote, comment, and save without separate Reddit . In that mode, attached images upload directly to Reddit’s CDN instead of Imgur.
