Devvit Apps for moderation

updated: August 29th 2026
I've maxxed out the character count 😄 Which is good, because it means there are a lot of useful apps that help with moderation. It also means that the list continues in the sticky comment!

Inspired by the awesome r/modguide and this post, this is an (incomplete but extensive) overview of devvit apps for moderation sorted into categories. The overview of all published Devvit apps can be a bit overwhelming (but well worth your time to dig through it). So hopefully this can help to find that one app that is just the solution you were looking for. 

Devvit apps can be installed by a mod with full permissions (more info here). You can read more on the Reddit developers site and it has an overview of all published Devvit apps Currently apps are updated and published on Tuesdays. Besides apps for moderation, there are also apps for a better subreddit search, daily threads, referral threads community links, subreddit calendars, community home, hub, cup, rafflers, give aways, sports scoreboards, countdowns, events, polls, weather, scale recipes, games roll dice and even an app for users to ban themselves.

Sometimes there are multiple apps that have the same core purpose but they vary in available settings. If you find an app that's close but not perfect, see if there's a variant that suits your needs better.

Please note, if the installation page of the app states " unlisted"  that means that the latest update isn't public yet. You can only install the most recent public version. Link to image that shows what installing looks like, in the comments

Banning spam bots

Name Notes
Bot Bouncer Auto-bans bots and other harmful accounts on all the subreddits that have bot bouncer installed (Herd protection) Mostly automatic-reply bots and reposting bots. Bots are classified via submissions.

Mod recruitment & training

Name Notes
Mod recruit ModRecruit lets you build a custom application form, including image questions, that users can fill out directly in your community. It automatically checks if they meet your sub's requirements (like account age or karma) and gives your team a clean dashboard to review, discuss, and vote on candidates. Think combining native mod recruitment combined with the flexibility of google forms.
shadow-mod Train new mods with structured blind review. Observers record decisions without executing them, Reviewers assess independently, and a report compares both calls against the final outcome

Mod actions/macros through flair change

Allow you to run pre-configured actions from flairing a post with specific mod-only post flairs. They also allow the mod team to act as a unit without mods getting singled out for the specific mod actions they perform, similar to responding as the subreddit in modmail.

appeal-advisor Provides helpful information to mods when considering ban appeals from users
modmail archiver A one-time clean-up tool for an out-of-control Modmail inbox.

Announcement How to get help on r/Modsupport

78 Upvotes

Welcome to r/ModSupport! There are two ways to get support in this subreddit:

Posts in r/ModSupport and r/Modsupport mod mail for direct admin support.

Posts into r/ModSupport:

This community is a place for moderators to ask questions regarding moderation on Reddit and to discuss answers with other moderators. All posts are monitored by admins. Posts are flaired when answered by mods or admins. In addition, we have a bot that removes posts from non-moderators, as this space is reserved to support moderators.

Post when you have a question about mod tools or are seeking general advice for your subreddit.

Examples of topics that violate subreddit rules and will be removed:

  • Rule 1: Rule violations, questions about specific admin actions, and appeals (e.g. account and banned subreddit appeals, report responses for content reported to the Safety team)
    • You can mod mail for admin support on these topics
  • Rule 2: Calling out other users or subreddits
  • Rule 3: Not being civil toward others
  • Rule 4: Off-topic posts that are not related to moderation on Reddit

Please post bugs into r/bugs and choose the appropriate flair - Mod Tools - iOS, Mod Tools - Android, Mod Tools - Desktop or Mod Tools - Mobile Web.

Bug Reporting best practices include:

  • Description: 1-3 sentences on the issue.
  • Platform and version: web or mobile + version (for ex: 2022.23.1).
  • Steps to reproduce: What actions do you take to experience the bug?
  • Expected and actual result: What did you experience and what do you think you should experience instead?
  • Screenshot(s) or a screen recording: These can help us narrow down your issue

Admin Support via r/Modsupport mod mail:

When you have questions with sensitive information, such as mentions of other redditors or communities, appeals of safety actions, or requests to unban your subreddit, you can mod mail r/ModSupport directly for admin support. Your message may prompt an automatic response from our mod mail Answer Bot with Mod Help Center articles that might answer your question. If the articles do not help answer your question, you can simply respond back with “more help” and an admin will assist you directly.

How to report violating content:

Admin Replied Why is “Reddit” approving posts it (and Automod) already blocked?

18 Upvotes

We had a post (correctly) removed by Automod and even flagged by Reddit as coming from a banned domain. The post stayed removed for a few hours. However, according to the logs, a few hours later “Reddit” approved the post, followed by a deluge of user reports.

How does something like this happen? I’ll add a screenshot in the comments. It makes no sense.

Mod Topics To ban or not to ban?

21 Upvotes

Every mod team has a line, the tricky part is deciding when someone has crossed it. A while back we asked how do you handle ban appeals. Now we’re jumping back to the initial question: when do you hit that ban button in the first place?

At its core, a ban is a tool your mod team uses to protect your community. It directly affects one person, but the decision is made for the community as a whole. That can leave a team balancing what’s best for everyone against the context around one person and one action. How much does a long history of positive participation weigh in? Does knowing the community well create more room for a conversation, or change how the rule break lands? The same history could pull the decision in either direction.

When the behavior may also break Reddit Rules, protecting the community can also mean reporting site-wide rule violations to us.

So, let’s compare notes:

  • What does your team look at before deciding whether to ban someone or try a warning and explanation first?
  • Can you think of a time a warning or explanation genuinely changed how someone participated?
  • How does your team keep those judgment calls consistent when different moderators might draw the line in different places?

Increase in "low confidence, past few weeks" ban evasion notes on really old accounts?

7 Upvotes

Hey gang,

Anyone else seeing a recent increase in ban evasion notes on 7+ year old accounts that don't set off any additional red flags for the account actually being a ban evader, being bought, or being compromised?

I've seen a ton of these on r/gaming in the past month or so, particularly on accounts 10+ years old.

Mod Answered r/Sloth_IF cannot upload image posts.

• Upvotes

Image posts are enabled under Mod Tools → Content & Contribution → Post Types, and I have toggled the setting off/on and saved it.

However, image uploads remain stuck at “Uploading image 1 of 1” and never complete.

The problem occurs on both Reddit Android and reddit.com on PC.

Another user in the subreddit is experiencing the same issue.

Image uploads work normally in other subreddits.

The Mod Tools Post Types page also previously appeared completely blank on Android.

This appears to be a community-specific media upload/backend issue.

Admin Replied Account compromised — removed as moderator and new moderators added to multiple subreddits

9 Upvotes

My Reddit account was stolen on August 28, 2026. I recovered it the following day by changing my password and enabling 2FA.

The problem is that on August 28, I was removed as a moderator from the following subreddits:

Furthermore, all the other moderators of both subreddits were removed at the same time, and a new moderator was added to each subreddit on that exact day.

This clearly happened while my account was compromised, and we did not authorize any of these changes.

How can we get our previous moderator privileges restored and have the moderators who were added during the account compromise removed?

This is extremely concerning, as the changes were made without our consent while my account was compromised.

Thank you for your help.

Mod Answered What are mod teams doing about X after Xcancel and TwitterWebViewer have been taken down?

3 Upvotes

So on r/PS5 we don't allow X links and haven't for nearly 2 years. There were websites like xCancel and TwitterWebViewer that let you submit links from those tweets and bypass ads and log-in walls... but those two are down now.

So what alternatives are you considering? We're still pretty against allowing X links (even ignoring the frankly un-ignorable Elon of it all, X requires log-ins for viewing most posts, so it's a non-starter really) but, frustratingly, publishers and developers still break news on it, or drop some juicy tidbit of gaming gossip, so we are trying to figure out a game plan and I'm personally curious how other similar subreddits are dealing these changes. I'm sure we're not the only ones scrambling a little bit.

Maybe screenshots sounds good for a second but those can be doctored.

Maybe some sort of automoderator or post-creation automation that detects when someone is going to use an X link... Keep the existing rule (no direct X/Twitter links) but tell users in our removal reason that mirror sites are in flux and to check the source’s official channels (PS Blog, developer’s own site) when possible, per our rules on primary sourcing.

Anyone else have thoughts? How are you all shifting with these changes?

August 18, 2026: Tools, toys and timesavers: Digging into Developer Platform apps
u/PossibleCrit returns to talk about what is possible with Devvit (also known as Developer Platform) apps! u/SampleOfNone uses over 60 of them in their sub!

u/techiesgoboom popped in to ask how you identify users who participate in your community that might make a good mod!

August 25, 2026: Shibboleths, Rituals, and Festivities: What cultural norms make your community unique?
u/JabroniRevanchism showed up to introduce the word “shibboleths”, and to also ask what sorts of stuffs are unique to your community?

August 27, 2026: How do you help new members navigate your community's learning curve?
Coming back rested and ready, u/techiesgoboom wrapped up the month by asking how you help your members learn the ropes in your community! We all hoped it wasn’t going to be trial by fire, and y’all did not disappoint!

Friendly reminder to update your Devvit apps
u/fsv reminded everyone early in August that Devvit apps just don’t update themselves! You have to do it! Yes, YOU! So it’s a good time to check in on any apps that you have to see if there are any updates that will keep them functioning properly in your communities. Thanks for the reminder (and for all of your Devvit apps), u/fsv!

Moderator Share & Tell
Here’s where you get to share your exciting news from last month with us! What awesome things happened in your communities?? There’s gotta be something! TELL ME. Last month…

We learned that a lot of you really enjoy the Mod Topics conversations that we’ve been having in here for a while now! I also find them very enjoyable and interesting! We’re always open to suggestions for future topics if you have ‘em! Really. Please help. lol

Flair updates

User flair is assigned to the top 10% and top 25% of users who are consistently constructive and helpful in their replies to posts and comments in this sub over the course of the past twelve months. As of this post, these are your current flaired helpers.

And that brings us to the end of August! Thank you so much to everyone who stops by to help in whatever form it takes. Whether it be comments, testing, feedback, assistance, you name it. If you’re here and it’s helpful, we’re appreciative! THANK YOU.

I’ll guess we’ll meet back here at the end of September and do this again! In the meantime, I’ll see y’all here, there and everywhere! Thanks again!

Admin Replied My PRAW mod bot u/mtg-service is still not an "App"

5 Upvotes

I've messaged you & r/Devvit, registered the app, and filled the form. You have not replied to me anywhere and the issue persists so here I am.

Should I report this to r/bugs ?

Should I reach out to you on the Devvit Discord?

What am I supposed to do? I do not want to lose the API access on that account. Thanks.

Shuffle-it: A Devvit App that promotes broader community engagement

11 Upvotes

Shuffle-it (link to app description and download)

Hello Mods! Shuffle-it adds a button to your community that sends members to a random post with a single click. This is a community-scoped replacement for the old [r/random](r/random). It is a simple way to resurface older posts and keep people exploring your subreddit.

Some features to highlight are below:

-A "Take me to a random post" option in the subreddit menu, available to everyone and ready the moment you install.

-An optional random post button you can add as a post and place wherever you like (pin it, or add it to your community highlights).

-An optional sidebar widget that links to the button. A low-footprint way to keep it visible without taking a feed slot.

-An optional spotlight post on your schedule: daily, weekends only, or any days you pick. You can also customize the post title. The previous spotlight is cleaned up automatically so your community doesnt get filled with spotlight posts.

-Flair filtering: draw random posts only from certain flairs, or exclude flairs you don't want surfaced.

-A live shuffle counter on each post, and a moderator stats view showing your community's shuffle activity.

-Adjustable post size (from a tiny 96px button up to a full 512px card).

-Optional filters for locked and archived posts.

-Customizable button color, including matching your subreddit's key color, plus an option to use your subreddit banner as the background.

-Works in light and dark mode, on desktop and mobile.

Admin Replied Most mods in my sub are inactive. And I have no power.

9 Upvotes

I am a moderator of an NSFW sub. The main moderators with all the power have been inactive for quite some time. I would like to add more mods myself to keep the subReddit moderated. This is an impossible task since I do not have the authority. What do I do to either gain permissions to add moderators. Or to take control of the sub? Almost all of the mods in this subReddit are inactive. So I feel I am moderating this sub all alone with no power.

Admin Replied User's temp ban expired, but they can't post and aren't in the ban log

2 Upvotes

A user was issued a 3 day temp ban which has now expired. However, the user still cannot post.

This user does not appear in the ban log at all, so we can't manually un-ban. We also tried to issue a new ban (so we could then un-ban them), and are receiving a 500 error when that happens.

User has been able to post in other subreddits and send us modmail.

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()
