Hey all,

I upgraded to iOS 18 yesterday, so wondering if this is possibly due to that or something on the Voyager app’s side.

I’ve noticed today that if I’m on my profile’s page, or viewing a specific post, or browsing a specific community, and then I leave the Voyager app for a time to go to another app or the iPhone’s “desktop” and then come back to Voyager, Voyager will do a refresh and then go to the main page, which I have set to show All. It also refreshes the All feed whereas before it would stay where I left it when browsing All.

Is this a new update or did iOS 18 implement something that is causing this? Anything that can be done to not allow this to happen?

Thank you!

As far as I know, iOS is and was always bad at background tasks, like uploading stuff on various sites/apps (like Instagram story, telegram file, etc). Now, I don’t know why it changed do badly with iOS 18 but I’m sure is apple’s fault with their system

The behaviour is intended as far as I understand Apple’s iOS philosophy. This is to prevent bad coded apps from consuming too many recourses like RAM and battery. I guess this is also a reason why linux phones have such shorter battery life compared to android/iOS devices.
