Just built it from source while waiting for Google to approve the app, and it's great. I had to use Firefox for the PWA because I need links to open in firefox when I click on them, but Firefox doesn't handle PWAs vey well. The native app fixes all these problems. Excited for it to be on the Google Play Store!

Also [email protected] will you upload the android app to F-droid? It would be nice to have it there rather than having to install it from the play store.

Not sure if this is different depending on the backing browser, but my experience with this is that it works great to open the link, but when you hit the back button to go back to Voyager, you get kicked out to your home page instead of back to the thread you were in.

This might not be caused by opening a page in the same browser as the PWA (could be due to issues with the back button that I think we're fixed in the latest build? Or was that about the native apps? Can't remember) but I've been assuming that's part of the issue ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
