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Please note, it's currently a slightly outdated version of Voyager.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

One of the killer features of the PWA is long tapping an image anywhere and sharing it through other apps. Not a link to the post, not a link to the image but the actual image. Long tapping an image in the native app only vibrates it and does nothing. Would it be possible to port that behavior?

Yeah the menu doesn't pop up when long pressing an image or video link. On the voyager PWA I would long press YouTube links and share them to Newpipe to avoid ads.
