It is a limitation of a PWA. A native app (wrapper) will likely be coming though, and a custom Capacitor plugin could theoretically interface with the native API to switch out icons. Theoretically. No promises though :)
Quoting this comment by the dev
Every minute or so the app just refuses to scroll at all. The screen freezes up and nothing happens. The only solution is to sit and wait for a second without touching the screen until it decides to work properly again.
It’s borderline unusable, and I can’t fathom how so many people experience it and just tolerate it. I’ve just filed it under “Lemmy as a whole is new and kind of janky and it will eventually improve” but it’s starting to get to the point where it needs to be fixed or people will abandon this app for one that doesn’t have that problem.
Ug that sucks.
For the data point, I don’t have that issue. Not sure what the difference is. I’m using an iPhone 12 mini and iOS updated to the latest. Voyager works really well for me. Remarkably well.
Clearly it’s a problem many are having based on the upvotes. Hope it can be fixed.
So what you’re saying is Apple sucks at programming, so you want voyager to make an iOS app?
I’m didn’t say or imply either part of that, but I guess nice try on trying to put words in my mouth for some odd reason.
