This can be considered v1.0 rc1 :)

Please let me know of any bugs!

BREAKING CHANGE

Voyager now connects directly to ALL Lemmy instances! If your Lemmy instance does not support CORS (using an old version of Lemmy), you will no longer be able to connect. Virtually all larger Lemmy instance have been upgraded with support for direct connect for Lemmy clients.

New features

New icon

Thanks very much to @fer0n for our wonderful new logo! This logo was chosen as part of our icon design contest. @fer0n also created a fantastic new splash screen for Voyager!

  • Want to get it? Remove and re-add the app to your homescreen. (Unfortunately, you will loose all settings + hidden posts)
  • Like the old icon? The old icon will continue to be displayed until you remove and reinstall Voyager to your homescreen.
  • Want a different custom icon? For iOS, check out this shortcut! https://routinehub.co/shortcut/15817

Custom swipe gestures

Thanks to @rsammelson for this great new feature! You can now customize swipe gestures however you desire - including turning them off. Check it out in Settings!

With this change, the long right swipe for posts is now bookmark instead of hide. You can change this back to the way it was in Gesture Settings, if you prefer!

Instance sidebar

From the Communities list, click the icon the header to view the instance sidebar! From here you can view the admins (and direct message them), as well as view other helpful information.

    I’ve not tried this in the iPad but works pretty well on the iPhone for me. I swipe from the left edge but not very exact. Prior to this update I’d always end up accidentally voting instead.

    I have the iPhone 13 mini though, maybe that’s why it’s easier for me to reach the left edge.
