r/apps — frequently asked
How many members does r/apps have?
r/apps has 118,646 members as of our most recent crawl on Aug 18. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.
Is r/apps growing?
We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/apps yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 18; the chart fills in as history accumulates.
How active is r/apps?
We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/apps yet. Subscriber count alone is a poor guide to whether a community is active, so treat this one as unverified until the next sample lands.
Can I promote my product in r/apps?
Our read on r/apps is high promo tolerance. It has a promo-friendly culture or a dedicated thread, but that still means being useful first. Always read the sidebar rules before you post; moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.
How do I monitor r/apps for mentions?
Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/apps into your Dataset — every new post indexed and embedded, searchable semantically, queryable by your AI agent over MCP, and able to trigger keyword alerts in Slack. Prowlo is read-only; it never posts on your behalf.
Can my AI agent read r/apps's stats?
Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/apps's members, growth, promo tolerance and similar communities as typed JSON — free, no credits. Connect your agent to api.prowlo.com/mcp and it can vet the community and start watching it in the same conversation.
