This may be a really dumb question, but why can’t I find a Refresh button or option?

Upon returning to Voyager after some time I always want to refresh to see if there are new posts. Now I have to scroll back up all the way before I can “pull to refresh” or I have to leave Home, go to All and then back to Home to force a refresh. An option under the 3 dots at the top right would be very helpful in this case. Am I missing something really simple or is this indeed not possible at the moment?

    Forgot to mention I’m on Android using the app. But basically I don’t want to go back to the top. I just want to refresh at the current position.

      I see. That’s not something that Voyager supports, if you’re scrolled 400 items down it would have to fetch up to 400 items potentially batching if too many, which wouldn’t be good for the servers either :)

        Right okay, not sure if we understand each other correctly but I don’t know how to explain otherwise since English is not my native language. I don’t think Voyager should have to keep 400 items in cache, it’s just that when you have a refresh button it’s loads updates of the current posts in the time line. But I guess tapping the posts button basically does that. It just doesn’t remember the position you were at that moment.
