I lost a draft post in Voyager on Android while I was a few apps away doing research and looking for a photo to add to the post.
That brought to me an understanding that Android will just kill apps for memory purposes.
Then I thought back to Windows 98 and how it had a page file that would write RAM information to the hard disk and use it as RAM. It was slow af, but it worked.
So I’m wondering: it’s 2026; why is Android just killing apps instead of writing them to a much faster drive for recall when needed?


I see under memory only that I can turn of Memory Profiler, which I guess will tell me what’s going on under the hood. Also looks like I have a whole 4G of memory, more than anyone would ever need! lol
