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Please note, it's currently a slightly outdated version of Voyager.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!

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

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

Congrats! Looks good

yes!!! finally!!!!

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!!

Unfortunately I get the "this app is incompatible with your device" from the playstore. Sony Xperia 1 IV (Android 13)

lol and meanwhile I bet you have no issues with the PWA.

Can anyone comment and how's the battery performance of the native app compared to the PWA?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Should be similar.

Awesome, thanks!

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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

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.
