To me it seems like the landscape for Lemmy apps are sort of stagnant. I'm using Voyager and Mlem but I'm not sure if Voyager will get an iOS 26 makeover due to it's cross platform nature.

So what are you using?

Arctic, but the TestFlight expires in 13 days, and the AppStore version was last updated 7 months ago. I'm not complaining, as it is free. However, it's the only app I've tried that has the swipe back option that Apollo had, and I find that really useful. If you want to return to the last post you viewed, from the feed screen you simply swipe from right to left.

Do any other apps have this feature now?

Does Voyager cost for basic?

Swipe back feature works pretty much like Apollo did.

Image treatment is a little weird sometimes.

Works fine on iPad as well as iPhone.

Voyager is free but it has tips, so there are IAPs for that.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried it before and I tried it again just now and for the life of me I could not find a way to swipe to return to the previous post from the main feed. If there is a setting I am missing I'd love to be proven wrong.

Voyager can do this but I’ve never gotten it to work intentionally. I see it happen probably once a day when trying to swipe to upvote a post but I can’t seem to recreate it intentionally.

Edit: I figured it out! You have to swipe from past the edge of the screen. It is hard to do with a case on.

Thanks. I tried with a without a case just now with not the TestFlight and the web app and still couldn't get it to work! I also have a glass screen protector I wonder if that is messing with it? Anyway, the way Arctic has it implement it works every time.
