Love the app but I hate the look and options of the bottom navigation bar. Am I missing something or isn't here no way to customize it currently?

Would love to be able to make it something like this...

There’s no way currently. If you don’t like the iOS look, on the android app you can select the android theme, but that’s material v2 currently

Thanks for the reply. Definitely my favorite app right now, just not super comfy for one handed browsing (gotta stretch my thumb a lot).

Appreciate the reply, but still not sure how to customize the bottom navigation bar. I tried using the official vger.app link but I don't see it in the options.

Can you clarify what I should be looking at in your link please?

That's the source code for Voyager. If you want to make any changes not supported in the UI, you could change the source, then rebuild the binary for your own device and upload it to your device.

The code, IIRC is based on https://ionic.io/ so changing the icons for the tabbar involve modifying the ionic tab-bar setting: https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/tab-bar.

Ooooh. Got it thanks.

Way above my skill level.
