It is very bare bones, but there's a lot of room to extend its functionality in future work. So let me know what you think!
Android app
Some of you don't want to use Google Play to download the Android app, which is totally understandable! Now, the compiled app is automatically uploaded to Github Releases so you can use a tool like Obtainium - or download directly and update yourself. I'm also working on F-droid support! :)
Oh, and thanks to all of those who have reviewed the app in the Play Store!
iOS app
Fingers crossed on app store release soon! I've been dutifully making changes for App Review.
Donations
Thank you very much to those that have donated. It really helps! What does your donation go towards?
- Coffee
- Recurring development costs, including $50/mo Ionic Appflow, vger.app hosting/domain fees, Apple Developer account
- I just picked up a Pixel for development purposes (before I was using a TCL 20xe which was... not great)
- I'm planning on attending Ioniconf this fall for fun/learning/networking, and donations will definitely help offset that
Dude, you are a machine.
Mad props to the incredible work you've done and continue to do. It's 2023 and I suddenly don't hate PWAs anymore; literally all thanks to Voyager.
...what a time to be alive.
So far everything is working GREAT!
Just wanted to say that I've been using Voyager pretty much since it launched and I LOVE it. You are doing God's work here and it really is much appreciated. Even though Lemmy is still in its infancy and seems a little empty at times, this app right here makes it feel like home.
I want to test bold and italics, and perhaps add an
…A successful trifecta! Beautiful bird. 🦜
Rutherford 💕. We game him a dorky name because he’s a total dork 🦜
my favorite app atm, i like that it takes only one touch to get to my comments and it remembers i like to sort post by top of the hour, other apps don't remember my sorting preferences

yay yay yay
Thanks for this update, the MD editor looks promising. If you want a good open source example of great md editor, take a look to Joplin mobile app.
App is great man. Long time fan. Nice to see the Android and iOS versions.
Way to go
Looks awesome! By the way, the markdown for horizontal lines doesn't seem to be rendered at all in the app.
I had a few gripes when I first started using it, they have since been fixed, along with so many things I didn't even know I wanted. My donation is definitely going to be left recurring for the foreseeable future
This is a feature I have really been looking forward to! Very excited for it. I really like the implementation of the link markdown button. When you highlight something then press the button, the text goes in the brackets, and the space in the parentheses is highlighted so you can easily paste the link in. Very nice!
I do have a question about the Android app. Is that linked to any specific "instance" of voyager? For example, I have a voyager container running on my server, which I can access via voyager.dandroid.app. Is the compiled app loading an instance of voyager somewhere like that one, or is it all running on the phone itself?

All running on the phone!
Awesome! Thanks for the info. So I think it is safe to stop that container, since the compiled app works a little better for me, and I can update directly from GitHub instead of waiting for the Play Store to update.
There is no quote button in the editor :-(
What I miss the most is the ability to select text from a comment and simply click “quote” which starts a new comment with the selected text quoted.
Thanks a lot for the compiled app!.
Posts still being marked as read, even with Marking posts, disabled..?? Is this the expected behaviour?... Lovely app btw...😁
Sounds like a bug 🤔
Could be!, its not a big deal, I just would have expected a post to remain in its unread state... with option disabled 🤷🏻♂️
