Features

This app allows moderators to be notified by private message whenever a user replies to a bot in their subreddit, such as the [subreddit]-ModTeam account. It can also send messages to users whenever they reply to a bot.

  • Define a list of bot accounts to monitor.
  • Message all mods individually with bot reply notifications.
  • Define a blocklist of mods you don't want to message (e.g., bots).
  • Define an allowlist of users to message which would override the mod list and could also include non-mod users.
  • Ignore comment replies from mods.
  • Optionally enable messaging for replies to bot posts in addition to bot comments.
  • Optionally define a message to send to users who reply to bot comments.

Note: To ensure proper functionality of this app, mods should explicitly allow the bot account (u/bot-reply-msg) to contact them privately. This can be accomplished using the following steps.

On desktop:

  1. Click your profile picture, then settings.
  2. Go to the Privacy tab and click on "Who can send you chat requests."
  3. Type the username: bot-reply-msg
  4. Press Enter

On mobile (instructions for iOS, but should be possible on Android as well):

  1. Tap your profile picture, then Settings.
  2. Tap your username under Account Settings.
  3. Tap on Chat Permissions under Safety.
  4. Tap on Allow List and type the username: bot-reply-msg
  5. Tap on the Add button next to the appropriate search result.
