1.11.0-1.10.0: Custom app icons, jump to next root comment, text recovery, and much more!
I'm starting to combine releases into one announcement post - and new features and bugfixes may not be officially announced here - so be sure to follow the Github releases to see what's new!
With that, here's some of the latest from 1.10.0 and 1.11.0!
Custom app icon
As some other have already posted, Voyager (native app only) now provides a selection of custom app icons to choose from! This list will slowly expand in the future so be sure to check back regularly. :)
Text Recovery
You can now have peace of mind in case the app unexpectedly quits. As you type, your text is saved and can be recovered upon relaunching the app. Try it out!
Jump to next root comment
You can now enable a button to easily jump to the next root comment β or long press to go back. Even better, you can customize its position!
Open links in default browser
Native app only
Head over to Settings if you'd like external links to open in your default browser instead of in-app!
A bunch of tweaks and fixes
Check out below for more! And thanks to @RocketRide9 for the theme color tweaks!
Like the apps?
I would appreciate if you left a review on the app stores! This helps Voyager gain visibility and reputation. Thank you very much! π
This is a great update. You managed to fix the strike through, and the Jump button was something I missed so much from Apollo.
I think the only feature I still miss, is the one to share replies as pictures (but Iβm not even sure if itβs possible within the PWA, maybe itβs a native only feature).
Congratulations, I barely miss Apollo nowadays π
Someone wrote in a review they this great app βfeels like homeβ because it reminds one of Apollo for Reddit so much.
I tried a couple of the new Lemmy apps and Voyager is my favorite so far. One thing, I would appreciate for one of the next releases would be some kind of βprivacy redirectβ built in to redirect e.g. YouTube links to piped.video and others as well.
Thanks and keep up the good work! Iβll go ahead and leave a review soon.
Still using it as a self-hosted PWA over here. I've even made a script to fetch a version from git, cross compile it for my Pi and ship it over. Keep up the good work! :)
Another fantastic update! You guys are killing it! Loving the new comment jump button. Didnβt realise how much I used it in other apps until it wasnβt there anymore. So good to have it back!
Love this update! Very excited for the jump comment button! And I love being able to return to the OG icon. All love and respect to the talented artists who made the newer ones, but the OG one feels βrightβ!
Where is the ideal place for feature suggestions? It would be nice to be able to press and hold a comment and get a pop-up view of the parent comment itβs replying to. Sometimes you get a comment with a lot of child comments, and by the time Iβve reached the fifth or sixth parent I have forgotten some of the parent comment context. π
