Let’s jump in!
(BTW, Voyager 0.14.0 didn’t get a dedicated release post, so check it out here!)
New features
F-droid and reproducible builds
To start, I’m happy to announce that Voyager is coming to F-droid later this week! This is really cool, but it’s even cooler because Voyager’s build is now reproducible. That means that F-droid independently builds and verifies that the APK bundle I provide on Github Releases (and the Play Store) is compiled from the referenced source code without modifications. It’s a pretty nice security enhancement — even if you aren’t using the F-droid build.
Set default feed on app startup
Previously, logged in users were always sent to their home feed when the app starts up. Now, you can configure it in Settings! Choose between All, Home, Local, Community List, or even select a custom community. General -> Default Feed.
- Note: you must be logged in to use this feature
- Note 2: Selected default feed is unique to your logged in user
Touch friendly links
Fat fingering links can suck. So there’s now a list of links in each comment in a touch-friendly format, Apollo-style! (And yes, you can turn this feature off in General -> Touch Friendly Links.)
Quick subscribe from community search results
Now, searching for communities provides a quick subscribe button! Thanks @sharunkumar!
More!
That’s not all - for example, community and user blocks is now sorted alphabetically (thank you, @ismailghedamsi). Check out below for the list of all changes in this release!

Thanks! I think there’s a github issue for the shortcut.
Can you elaborate on the notification color issue? Maybe a screenshot?
Oh sweet, and yeah sure here’s a screenshot
Here is a read and unread message, its really hard to tell which is which, I can barely tell they’re different colors
