First off, the icon contest is now closed! Thanks to everyone that submitted. Seriously, thank you. These are really awesome and it’s so cool to have icons created by the community. Next step: I’ll nominate 3 icons by end of week (hopefully sooner) and create a thread for the community to choose the winner :) More info to follow. https://lemmy.world/post/1287799
Next off, version 0.24.0!
Another release with some anticipated features!
Mark posts read on scroll
(disabled by default) you can now setup posts to be marked read when you scroll past them! This is a cool feature but will become even more useful when “hide read posts” is finished later this week.
Android mode (beta)
There’s now a setting to enable Android mode! Please keep in mind that it’s a beta isn’t finished! This is mainly getting the setting enabled so we can improve the styles and iterate. :) Let me know what you think! Do you prefer the iOS theme on Android? Do you prefer the Android theme on iOS? 😈
Show user instances
Did you even find it annoying that you had to tap into a user to determine the instance they’re on? Well now there’s a setting to show the instance URL of all users that aren’t on your instance! Super handy, thanks @rsammelson!

Do Android users really not have native swipe right to go back functionality? Or is that just missing currently from the Android (Beta) theme?
Android devices have dedicated back buttons and/or gestures, so there’s no need to build that functionality into an app.
Thanks!
When you disable buttons in lieu of gestures which were introduced a few years ago, you have swipe from either side for back
Aw damn you just made me realize the swipe wasn’t working on Android theme lol.
That’ll bug me after over a week using this app and getting used to it.
I’m on Android and I didn’t realise there was a swipe to go back gesture. I’ve just been using the normal Android “swipe from the right” gesture that does Back.
Ah damn! Annoying it’s gone now. @aeharding , possible to include swipe to go back to the Android theme?
Loving the theme otherwise!
Thanks for all the hard work !
It does, I’m using a samsung phone with One Hand Operation installed and you can turn off the gestures for some areas which makes the builtin gestures for Voyager work.
