Bitcoin Wallet

Bitcoin Wallet is available on F-Droid only: f-droid.org/en/packages/de…

If your blockchain sync keeps stalling at around June 2024, make sure you're running at least version 10.15. As always, updates are available via F-Droid and Google Play.

Don't forget, Bitcoin Wallet is also available on F-Droid: f-droid.org/en/packages/de… It uses the same developer signature via a reproducible build, so you can switch without clearing the app data.

@barry_nice1 Please use Options→Report issue and describe your issue in detail, including Bitcoin transaction IDs of the payments.

@bitcoin_wallet please you need to tell me what's going on. I got a payment of of $3400 the sender sent $2400 and immediately sent the $1000 because the atm couldn't send the $3400 so she had to send it $2400 and $1000 I saw both payments on my wallet but only $2000 reflected

@digisus Recovery via seed words is a planned feature.

@bitcoin_wallet Much appreciated. Any news on the backup revamping? Will it be the typical seed recovery process? Thx.

PSA: There is reason to believe that Google Drive is currently not storing backups correctly. If you selected Drive for backing up your wallet, go to Drive, look up your backup file and check if the file size is not zero (a dash in the web UI). If it is, then redo your backup!

I just posted "Bitcoin Wallet v7.46" on Reddit reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comm…

Bitcoin Wallet v7.44-v7.45 * Fix a build reproducibility issue. * Update translations from Transifex. As always, the source code is available on our GitHub: github.com/bitcoin-wallet…

Bitcoin Wallet v7.05 now creates native segwit (Bech32) addresses for new installs. There is a fallback option in the menu for when a sender doesn't support Bech32. Version 7.05 will roll out very slowly, or if you want to skip the line, use: play.google.com/apps/testing/d…

The Testnet version of Bitcoin Wallet is now in Segwit Phase II: It creates native segwit (Bech32) addresses by default for new installs. There is a fallback option in the menu for when a sender doesn't support Bech32. Try it: play.google.com/store/apps/det…

Segwit support will be rolling out slowly with Bitcoin Wallet versions 7.x. If you want to skip the line, enroll as a beta tester here and you'll receive updates in the first batch: play.google.com/apps/testing/d…

This is very similar to what Bitcoin Core is doing to protect users from malicious binaries.

Bitcoin Wallet builds reproducibly since version 6.29 (July 2018). The binary (APK) is verified by F-Droid for each release since then, and it can be verified by anyone else e.g. by using "fdroid build --server de.schildbach.wallet".

@IncitingScenes There is a way to recover: Use backups! A website that would know your private keys would be a security nightmare bound to happen.

@BuckshotRory We don't know. It depends on where the merchant sends it.

@TheAlexinthesi6 We are replying to all issue reports, if the report has a meaningful message (e.g. description of the problem) at the top. To crash reports we only reply if there is a question. In any case, please allow 24h.

@ivan_o3 Yes! As long as you've got mobile Internet, you can use Bitcoin Wallet.

@grayscaleYT @nimrodlehavi Your current receiving address changes with each payment received to your wallet. This is done in order to protect your privacy. But don't worry, all old addresses of your wallet stay valid.

@hpbock_tweet You can use Bitcoin Wallet and simply set a spending PIN (which you then never use). This is equivalent to a watching wallet.
