Boost for reddit 1.0.15 – Cache, loading progress, new menu and more!

Hi users!

I’ve been working non-stop the last days to bring you this new version. The main changes you’ll notice are the new lateral menu, much cleaner and configurable than the previous one, and also multimedia cache for gifs and images. Once downloaded, the second time you open it, it will play instantly 🙂

Version 1.0.15 has been pushed to the beta channel. This is the changelog:

Version 1.0.15-beta
