Some users wonder if the dev will be charged for having it still up, others argue Reddit can’t charge him without having signed a contract. Everyone is confused as to why the API change hasn’t made it inoperable.

Why is Boost still working?

    RedReader was still working, but then again I don’t think the app developer planned on shutting it down on July 1st.

      Yeah, RedReader is one of the apps that had an accessibility exemption due to it being so good with its accessibility features. The official Reddit app doesn’t have those features, so Reddit knew they would get sued if they didn’t allow some 3rd party apps to fill in that need.
