Title: Use same master seed wallet in two different phones simultaneously? Post by: Doctor.Strange on July 01, 2019, 05:10:58 PM Hello,
Can I use same master seed wallet in two different phones simultaneously? I mean if I have installed mycelium in 1st phone and I restore that same wallet in 2nd phone, can I operate them simultaneously? Will I have any problem or not? Thanks.

Just make sure to refresh it if you make a tx from the other (to keep both "synchronized").

Of course.Bitcoins are stored in the blockchain and not in your wallets itself. All Mycelium does is make all the information easy for you and help you spend your coins.

One more question, do I need internet connection to restore funds to new phone or offline will be worked? Title: Re: Use same master seed wallet in two different phones simultaneously?

You can restore (import) your wallet, but you won't be able to see your coins unless you connect to the internet. Your wallet will appear empty (because there is no internet to check for funds).

You mean funds will appear after synchronization? Title: Re: Use same master seed wallet in two different phones simultaneously? Post by: HCP on July 01, 2019, 08:47:45 PM You mean funds will appear after synchronization? Yes. Until the wallet is synchronised, all you will see is an empty wallet. You will be able to see the "first" receiving address generated by Mycelium (it will match the first address generated on the other device). You just won't see any transaction data.Like most "SPV" or "lite" wallets, Mycelium relies on retrieving transaction information from external servers. If you're not connected to the internet, then obviously your wallet cannot retrieve this information, so will have nothing to display. Once it is connected, it will be able to request transaction info from the Mycelium servers and then you will see the transactions relating to your wallet... and it will then be "synced". If you then go offline, you will see be able to see all the data already received, you just won't see any new transactions that occur until you go online again and sync again. |
