/ Why Redkit

What you get

Instant, not a 30-day wait

Reddit's own data export can take up to a month and arrives as bare CSV. Redkit builds a media-rich archive of your account the moment you ask.

DMs, posts and comments

Archive the whole account: your chats and their media, your posts, and your comment history — a complete record you control.

Separate from your account

Everything is saved to your device, apart from Reddit. If you are ever suspended, your archive stays exactly where it is.

/ How it works

Set up once, use everywhere

Install or enable Redkit

Add the Chrome extension or grab the iOS / Android app. One tap to turn it on — no Reddit password, ever.

Open the chat or thread

Go to the Reddit conversation you care about. Redkit works right where you already are — no copy-paste, no tab-switching.

Save, send, or export

Download the media, drop a video into chat, or export the whole conversation to a single file on your device.

/ FAQ

reddit account backup, answered

How do I back up my Reddit account before getting banned?+

Install Redkit and archive your DMs, posts and comment history while you still have access. The files live on your device, separate from your account.

Does Reddit's data download include my DMs and chat media?+

Reddit's official export is a CSV that can take up to 30 days and historically leaves out chat media and voice notes. Redkit captures them instantly.

How long does the Redkit backup take?+

Seconds to minutes, depending on how much history you have — not the up-to-30-days wait of an official data request.
