Hi there!

Voyager has been released to Google Play! You can check it out here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.vger.voyager

Please try it out and let me know what you think below! Because it's brand new, let me know if you have any problems relative to the web app and I'll try to fix them ASAP. And if you have time, leave a review, that helps Voyager gain exposure.

Why use the native Android version? Well, there's a couple main benefits:

  • The back button works much better!
  • Your browser history shouldn't be inundated with Voyager entries.

Please note, it's currently a slightly outdated version of Voyager. Hopefully it should update soon!


As for Apple peeps, that's still in progress. If you're on TestFlight and have an Apple Watch, check out the brand new Apple Watch app (coming very shortly in an update). It's quite simple at the moment, but kind of neat and useful!

Woah! That was quick!

I have a problem. It's not really to native app though. It's related to themes. Themes look good in Apple mode, but in Android mode switches look half blue half red. It looks weird.

I’m jailbroken on iOS 15 and I don’t see the watch app aa installable. Is this iOS 16 required ?

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

WatchOS 9.1 is required I believe

[-] nostalgicgamerz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Stuck on 8.3. WHELP

Thanks for letting me know

[-] botorfj@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

yes!!! finally!!!!

[-] itadakimasu@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Congrats! Looks good

[-] EarlyBaboon@lemdro.id 3 points 1 year ago

The back action doesn't seem to work when in the home page. I was expecting app to get closed.

[-] Tippon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same here. It doesn't seem to do anything.

I use Chromes password manager, but the app doesn't allow to auto fill the contents. Maybe that could be a possible improvement! Great job!!

[-] kratoz29@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't know how but I feel the haptics work better here than in any other app in my phone!

[-] Predator@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

So I just checked my wishlist and this app popped up and is now a available and compatible and I just installed it. So thanks for the fix.

What's the benefits of using this version compared to the PWA version?

Edit: I'm blind, it's mentioned right in the post

[-] Flyspeck@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

The Android app I've been waiting for! Just dl'd it but will give it a spin overthe next few days.

[-] Tippon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Does it use my blocked communities list from the web app, or do I need to start again?

First annoying bug I guess: when you try to swipe down to scroll up in a profile view it tries to refresh the page. I don't have this issue with the PWA.

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's odd - I'm not able to reproduce but I'll definitely keep an eye out. Let me know in Github if you can find a consistent reproduction

[-] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

here's a video showing what I just described (off-topic: the Lemmy web UI keeps stretching the videos to full page width smh):

[-] ffolkes@fanexus.com 2 points 1 year ago

You are not alone!

[-] ffolkes@fanexus.com 2 points 1 year ago

I can reproduce it as well. Only on the page that comes up on the center tab, slowly scrolling up and down cause the refresh effect to start erratically.

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks, should be fixed in next release!

Thank you! It works great and I love it.

This is my go-to app for Lemmy now!

[-] pallettownbry@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

When using 3 button navigation on my Pixel Fold running the latest Android 14 Beta, on light mode, the buttons are white, blending in with the background of the app... If that makes sense. Almost as if they are transparent.

[-] breakfastmtn@geddit.social 2 points 1 year ago

Amazing! Just some limited use so far but the experience seems every bit as good as the PWA. Thanks!

[-] Blaze@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you so much!

[-] sennalonso1981@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Again and again this app is fantastic

[-] PenguinOfWar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The app looks and works great, nice work! Are custom keyword filters on the roadmap?
