I just popped out to grab an image for a post, then realized I didn't have a photo app, then went to the play store to download Ente, then decided I should just download an image directly.... by the time I got back, Voyager had been closed and the draft was (apparently?) lost.

Any idea of how to prevent this from happening in the future?

And where is the draft supposedly saved?

you are viewing a single comment's thread

Voyager's drafts are weird. To use them, you need to find the same comment/post you were replying to when the app closed and try replying again. It'll automatically restore your previous text and (AFAIK) immediately delete the draft.

There is no way to view or save your drafts, nor know or navigate to the comment/post that it applies to. I'm also not sure if they're persistent beyond the first time you open the app after a crash. The whole system is one of Voyager's rougher edges.
