Users are signing up for the beta version of Reddit’s Android app.
According to an article on Digital Trends:

Reddit for Android is a big deal due to the fact that it’s the first official app from the link-sharing website that allows users to actually browse and contribute to its huge range of forums (known as “subreddits”).
In the past, anyone who has wanted to access Reddit in app form was forced to use third-party clients, such as Alien Blue. The launch of an official Reddit app was possibly fueled by the company’s acquisition of that client in October of last year.
Reddit CEO Steve Huffman broke the news of an upcoming app in July, asserting that “We’re building it ourselves … and it’s coming along nicely.” A few days ago, a Reddit product manager posted concrete details surrounding the Android beta’s signup process. According to the post, only a few thousand users will be selected for the first round of beta testing. No specific launch date for the beta was provided, but it is expected in the “next month or two.”
