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Please note, it's currently a slightly outdated version of Voyager.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

I noticed that the vibration feels mushier on slide gestures compared to the web app/back button swipe. For reference I'm on the Pixel 6a and use Edge as my PWA client.

Interesting! The code is the same, so it may be a Capacitor Haptics bug (translating wrong haptic)? It's technically using a different API for haptics under the hood.

There will be an update to disable haptics shortly if it's annoying :)

It's not annoying, just... how do I put it... Unsatisfying? Feels less clicky than the system default is all.
Thanks for the hard work anyways! :)

Yeah it feels a bit softer. Pretty subtle difference but I actually prefer the native app haptics to the pwa a bit.
