Hey Voyager users!

I added a new feature for Android users (does not affect iOS). It’s currently available in beta. Basically, if you try to swipe back from home/all/local you will see a popup asking you to confirm:

This was added after a lot of feedback from Android users: https://vger.social/post/29745268

It’s a configurable setting (General -> Other -> Confirm Back from Home/All/Local).

My question is: Should this be on by default? Or not? As an android Voyager user, have you experienced this problem where you accidentally swipe back to the communities list? Or have you not experienced this problem?

    Oh my god, I’ve wanted this for so long - lost so much progress over an accidental back press. Thanks for this! (though, I don’t think it needs to be on by default - having it on by default could teach new users not to go into their communities UI)

    Edit: though I do agree with the other user who mentioned a “do not ask again” checkbox - I think that would mitigate any concerns. Regardless, I’m just happy we have a warning now!
