iOS: Problems with Lockdown Mode (self.voyagerapp)

Voyager can't open posts or display comments with it enabled, it gets stuck. Also, some user settings aren't "remembered". Any chance of a future fix to correct these problems? Thanks, I enjoy the app very much aside from these issues.

I’m fairly certain what you’re experiencing is just how lockdown mode works. It even specifically states in the menu that it’s gonna break some stuff because certain features that apps might need to function are completely disabled. The fix is “don’t use lockdown mode” because you simply cannot work around entire critical feature sets being unavailable on a system level.

To be honest, you probably shouldn’t be using lockdown mode if apps behaving weird is going to bother you. It’s an extreme measure and it says so right when you enable it, it’s not meant for casual use.

While it’s true that lockdown mode can break things, it’s likely there is something that can be fixed here - a setting or a particular API, perhaps. After all, the app is still in development and these don’t seem like intended effects of lockdown mode.

I tend to agree with this as other Lemmy apps work just fine with iOS lockdown mode such as mlem and memmy.
