Just built it from source while waiting for Google to approve the app, and it's great. I had to use Firefox for the PWA because I need links to open in firefox when I click on them, but Firefox doesn't handle PWAs vey well. The native app fixes all these problems. Excited for it to be on the Google Play Store!

Also aeharding@lemmy.world will you upload the android app to F-droid? It would be nice to have it there rather than having to install it from the play store.

Oh yeah, I have heard Voyager never was good on Firefox, so it is safe to assume you have a better performance with the APK.

I guess only because the native app uses the inbuilt Chromium based rendering engine

Torn about whether to keep using Firefox to support its market share

As a browser it works well on my s9. Honestly the only time I use chrome now on android, it's when I use the voyager app. I even replaced the google search bar on my homescreen by the firefox one.
