I have multibit in my desktop and I want to have the same priv key in my ios wallet.Which of these support the import of priv key from multibit and has a good UI not to forget the security in its place.
1.Airbitz
2.Bither
3.breadwallet
4.Green address
5.Copay?

It's strange to see anyone using crypto AND Apple. I mean both are complete opposite xD
Btc: freedom, HighTech and a good way to store value
Apple: No innovation ever, no control on any device and overpriced product that lose 70% of their value in 2 years ^^

this thing will not giving affect to both bitcoin user and apple user because apple don't provide any currency and bitcoin don't provide any hardware
by allowing bitcoin wallet on their app store it mean bitcoin didn't break any appstore rules and apple seems take it fine

Well that's good.
But what I wanted to say is that for me the "Apple user" and the "BTC user" are two really different persons without a compatible mind/ideal/way of seeing things ^^

Why is that many users go personal and judgemental here? I just wanted a friendly advice regarding the best suited options.If u don't want to advice properly please don't post.

I don't know if its a good idea to use the same address (private key) on mobile phone and desktop if its the wallet that you use as saving. If you only have few bits for small payments i suppose that there is no problem. I think that you are loosing on security when you use it on more than one device.

Your best option is to use Breadwallet on your iOS device and just send the bitcoin from Multibit to Breadwallet.

I am using Coinpocket. It can't import private keys but it give you the private key in BIP38. You can do the opposite by importing the private key into Multibit...

IS breadwallet secure like blockchain ? Does blockchain has any IOS app ?
Do let me know about that. Thanks

Yes, blockchain has an iOS app but I think you are better off with Breadwallet check out the reviews on reddit.

yes search for bloackchain on Ios app.

I really don't understand why using the same wallet, going through all this boring importing thing (which is also risky cause someone could have accest you your private keys).

Just use 2 or more wallets, and, when and if you need it, just send coins to and from one another...

That way you dilute the risk and don't have to worry about compatibility issues.

i have heard block chain is the most secured online wallet. I just wonder how private keys can be compromised ?
If you have strong password, its safe i guess ?

Blockchain has been compromised before. You are always safer keeping your private keys in your possession, preferably using a hardware wallet (https://bitcoinnewsmagazine.com/best-bitcoin-hardware-wallet-2015/).

Who said that there is a generic bitcoin user? or a generic Apple user?  your opinion is your opinion people should be free to use what ever device they like with out being pigeon holed into a certain category.  :-\

ok i will read about this hardware wallet. But if we have a good password, would it be ok and secure ?

By the way i still like Online wallets.
