Just fired up Voyager on Android to discover a notification-style marker above the settings/gear icon. Opening Settings doesn’t provide any clue as to why. Taking it further by tapping each of the top level menu items also doesn’t show why.
Okay, Voyager. Keep your secrets…
Edit: F-Droid showed that Voyager had recently updated, so I tapped the recent apps button and swiped up to close Voyager. When I reopened it, the marker was gone.
I’ve read elsewhere that there’s a bug that shows that notification when there’s an update, but it doesn’t show the update option.
That’s what I’ve read anyway.
I’d wondered if that might be it, thanks.
I know the developer is active here, so thought it night be a good opportunity for them to address it ahead of more questions. 😊
I did an update all from the play store and it went away. Interestingly, Voyager was not one of the apps listed.
I had a notification number after I updated it from F-Droid so no “Notification for a new update for me”
First I’ve heard this.
I was getting the notification, but I’m still half-Googled until I get this phone paid off and blah blah blah
Anyways the point is that I have my apps set to auto-update, so once I stopped having the issue I assumed it had updated itself.
I’m on 2.24.2 by the way
The funny thing is:
The version 2.24.2 is the latest update as of writing this, and on the github page says
fix: android showing spurious setting tab badge https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/releases/tag/2.24.2
But I got the badge on the version it supposed to fix it
I saw that too. Went to “about” and there was an selection to show the recent changes. It wasn’t well labeled though.
The “What’s New” link to the GitHub repo? I see now it’s mentioned as a fix in the most recent version. 👍🏻
Weirdly mine seems to have disappeared without doing anything around the time I read this post…
I did a search here before posting, so thought it was a new issue. Then later remembered I had my view set to 1 day… 🤦🏻♂️
