Hello, when I try to download the Voyager app it tells me my phone is unsupported. Is there a solution to this?

I'm on a Samsung a21s with Android 12.

On a side note, what the heck is a Google Octopus?

It’s what OP named their Chromebook

Ahh got it. I never rename my devices so I thought that was a product name.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It was just the default name and I never bothered to change it.

You should be able to install it without the play store tho?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Well yes I could. I was just wondering why my phone wasn't supported.

Just now finding out about this. What advantages would this have over the Web app?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Your browser history isn't filled with Voyager.

Other than that, nothing much.

Never was because I use Native Alpha Plus. I'm on the Android App now and it's a bit smoother and I like this "Android Mode" as well. Very nice

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Android mode is available in the PWA as well.

Good to know. Haven't dug in the menus in a while

Haptic feedback

The back button works better.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes it does. I've been on it since yesterday. Loving it.

I saw in another thread that you were asking for a list of devices getting this error message.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you! I don't see any consistency in devices so far, I'm wondering if this has to do with Voyager's "Mature" store rating?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm wondering if this is due to age? Voyager is "Mature" (18+)

Some Lemmy apps are Teen, some are Mature, it's not very consistent.
