There’s a problem that it seems to use a lot of memory, because afaik it’s a web browser in disguise (by the way of using Flutter). As a consequence, any time another app needs memory, Voyager is killed by Android and starts again from the main page, forgetting what I was doing. Oftentimes it’s enough to switch to the browser and back again for Voyager to restart, which is ironic for a link-aggregator app.

Its animations are janky for the same reason, and get in the way of some functionality like collapsing comments.

Voyager’s UI is great, mainly because it’s not flashy, but a native app with that UI would be a lot better. RedReader for Reddit is much smoother to use.
