They are honestly both good, but can’t beat the native ios experience.

I use wefwef and it’s my first time learning about memmy.

What are the advantages of PWA?

I like wefwef but the scrolling does get me from time to time.

There are many, depending on your point of view. Voyager PWA is nice because when you dismiss it, it can’t run on its own in the background like a traditional app can, so I prefer PWAs over true apps whenever possible for this specific reason because I can control when the app is using the internet. If Voyager were an actual app, it could connect to my instance when it’s not running or it’s dismissed when I don’t want it to, like when I’m not on my VPN, for example. PWAs have no access to your contacts and other things that apps request (or sometimes demand) access to, not to mention the info Apple or Google provides to app developers when you agree to an app’s EULA. I could list a whole bunch of reasons

It’s also cool how it can update frequently and fast. It seems to get small updates most days right now.

I’m not seeing it in my settings and haven’t received the prompt but here’s hoping it reaches me soon!

Wish I knew why. Good luck and update your device

My main issue with wefwef is that I can’t directly save an image to the camera roll

Works fine for me. Did you deny it some permission somewhere?
