Post by: Fiyasko on February 22, 2013, 12:14:40 AM
Is it possible for me to import my bitcoin wallet.dat to the android bitcoin application? I want to spend my coins on the go from my phone
Should i use a webwallet? Fund my phone separately?

I would use a webwallet like Blockchain.  Just transfer an amount you're going to use for frequent transactions, not your whole balance.

I would also suggest a security app like Cerberus.  Should you lose your phone, you can lock it remotely, GPS track it, take pictures or video if someone attempts to access your phone, and ultimately wipe the phone clean if needed.
