Why do you think it’s a cache issue?

It was in the post title?

I don’t necessarily think it is, but I ran into what was probably a cache issue. Or maybe I misunderstood your question.

e: oh, you mean my issue? It was 2 months ago, and my inbox was persistently showing someone else’s profile until I deleted the app, rebooted my phone, and reinstalled Voyager. It persisted across multiple times restarting the app, so appeared to be a caching problem.

If you are on iOS and you uninstall then the cache is deleted. So it wasn’t a cache issue.

I remember that post you were told what was happening.

I don’t think I deleted the app until I did the delete-restart-reinstall thing. I probably should have, because that would have narrowed it down, and I may have misspoken. It persisted through app restarts, but not the deletion/reboot.

I rechecked my post and don’t see that anyone told me what was happening, just suggestions on what to do about it.
