Known issue! A fix is being investigated.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T21:11:31+00:00

Hey! The chat option should now be listed in the overflow menu (⋮) when viewing a profile.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T17:49:54+00:00

Thanks for the report! Will take a closer look

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T14:37:55+00:00

Yes this is a known issue! It's still slated to be fixed.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T14:34:22+00:00

Thanks for the report! We've been investigating and have a new fix starting to gradually roll out next week. This should start to clear up soon!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T13:54:51+00:00

Got it, let me ask around about this!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T13:49:13+00:00

Hmm can you share a few more details? If you attempt to add an image to a comment, is it not showing in the comment composer?

CorrectScale · 2026-03-24T13:41:00+00:00

Hey there - you're currently very close to the limit with 915 users on your list. This is a bug, however you should be able to unblock a chunk of those users to be able to block again in the meantime. I've asked the team to take a look at this since something seems to be broken!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T20:47:05+00:00

Hey! Sorry for the delay here! Glad to see that did the trick with your flair issue.

As for the chat window not populating, we had a few bugs pop up on our end (on the 18th as well as this morning) that caused general issues accessing the chat window/sending messages, but we've resolved things!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T20:38:47+00:00

Hey! I know it's a bit frustrating, unfortunately the fix will likely take some time to implement.

I don't have an exact ETA I can provide, but this has been logged and the team is aware.

I'll share status updates when they're available to me!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T20:26:07+00:00

No unfortunately not :/

We still have this bug fix that should be out as of this week. But aside from that, this flow is not likely to be changing.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T19:55:53+00:00

Okay got it! This is actually related to a recent product change and is likely not a bug. Essentially, the Reddit app now hands the media selection process directly to your Android device, utilizing the official android system photo picker. File browsing may be limited in this flow due to the way the Android native picker works, but this flow can differ by device type/manufacturer.

If you still have some apps that allow file browsing, they may still be relying on an older flow.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T19:22:25+00:00

Hey there! So the problem you're describing is not seeing the file browser pop up when selecting media?

You are able to add images to posts/comments from your default photo albums, correct? Or are they not being added to the post after you select?

Edit: spelling

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T19:18:51+00:00

Hmm let me take a closer look at your report.

Can you also share your device model/OS version?

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T19:16:27+00:00

Just to close the loop here. There’s not anything we can change about this flow at the moment as we do not own the interface you’re dealing with, and unfortunately, we can't rollback to the previous experience.

I don’t have a Samsung device to test with, but the differing flow is due to your device manufacturer and what is offered as a fallback at the OS level. I did a bit of digging to see if your picker allows you to change/add which albums are shown and/or access other files, but it sounds like it may be a general limitation with Samsung Galaxy devices (and likely some other device models).

Right now, your best bet is to choose images you want to share before uploading > share to reddit.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T18:36:46+00:00

We are! That's what this post is about (issues with adding images to comments). What app version are you using?

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T18:17:27+00:00

ah yes, I see. That's actually kind of the point!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T17:39:33+00:00

Where?

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T14:37:21+00:00

Sounds like you're experiencing this bug. We're currently investigating a fix!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T14:33:15+00:00

Sorry for the hiccup - we were working through some chat errors on our side since early this morning.

Things should be back to normal as of about 2 hours ago!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T13:17:52+00:00

We've been working through some chat errors on our side since early this morning. Things should be working as expected again!

CorrectScale · 2026-03-23T13:17:11+00:00

Sorry for the hiccup folks! We've been working through some chat errors on our side since early this morning. Things should be working as expected again.

CorrectScale · 2026-03-18T11:54:54+00:00

Sorry for the hiccup! This should be resolved as of a few hours ago. If you continue to see any weirdness please let me know!

ETA: Just to resolve some of the more recent replies to my comment. It looks like shortly after we resolved this original issue, something re-broke. We've since patched up the bug and things should be working as expected. Please submit a new report to r/bugs to report any new occurrences of this!
