Reddit enhanced its comment search and prioritised machine learning. After a while on the desktop, it finally arrived on mobile devices, both Android and iOS. An update is rolling out, and you can update from your respective app store.
Redditors can simply swipe right in the comment tab to initiate a search across all subreddits and reddits. As we mentioned, Reddit uses machine learning to enhance search by prioritising user intentions. The company claims to have a 7% drop in results and 17% more subscriptions to Reddit.
How to Search for Reddit Comments on iOS and Android
- Open Reddit and tap the search bar at the top of the screen.
- Search for the keyword you want to search for.
- Next, swipe to the right to get a comment search.
- That is it!
Users can also tweak the NSFW (Not Safe for Work) to eliminate results they do not want to see. An update is quite helpful because it gives users the ability to search more quickly in the community. Reportedly, more filters and optimisation are needed to make searches more stable and faster.
