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

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.
