Please list your coins which you want to store it?
Every wallet is dedicated to proper types of coins and you cannot store any of coin on one wallet
E.g IXT token is generated by ERC20 smart contract and it run well on Ethereum web wallet or Mist version...

I advice you to use Electrum wallet. It is easy to use, it supports many wallet types, you can select fee amount, you can import/export private keys but you can't use it on mobile (maybe you can use it on Android but you can't in iOS).

If you use an android phone I'd suggest coinomi because they support many alts which can come handy if you are looking to trade between altcoins.
Other than that if you are looking for a wallet only for bitcoin might want to chose electrum (they have phone based as well as desktop based) its one that I personally use with coinomi.

both of these wallets use mnemonic/seed (random words) from them they generate private keys and your address which makes them easy to backup. The most important thnng only you have the access to your private keys.

I wouldn't advise you to use Jaxx because I saw few weeks back that they don't encrypt private keys on your device which makes them easily accessible once some malware get into your device.

You can use electrum on mobile (android) which you can download the wallet on google play store which I would say its one of the best wallets since you can have your private keys which you cant do on other web wallets. If OP is active on making transactions online then this would be a good choice and also blockchain.info wallet its a good option too but be sure to set a strong security.

Electrum for PC is a really good choice. Simple and clear interface, with lots of security features.
For mobile, Copay looks like a good one.

The best wallet for beginners on mobile is Airbitz. Also, Bread Wallet is a very basic wallet, and Mycelium is full-featured. I use all three.

Jaxx wallet is pretty good and solid. Not sure what coins you have but Jaxxx can store multiple coins in one interface(mobile). It also gives you multiple ways to backup your coins. Hope I managed to help.

For computer only Electrum, Multibit HD, Bitcoin core are viable currently.
For mobile mycelium i can recommend.

It depends on what kind of token are you going to put in it. Like for example, you cant put an ETH token to a BTC based wallet. That also goes the other way around. But if you're going to store BTC, I recommend using Electrum. It is pretty good. It also a mobile version of it.

Computer : bitcoin core
Phone : no one (put the very little Bitcoin as possible in your phone : no one phone wallet is safe because they are on a centralized plateform, Android ou iOS, 2 very bad company about security issues)

I recommend you electrum wallet, I used it for 2 years and no problem.You need to save the word you see at the begging and use it when you want to use your wallet on another pc.This words is very important ,if you lose them you lose you bitcoins.

I really advise you to not use Jaxx wallet app, in my opinion is the worst app i've ever seen, the support is also sucks the same with coinomi, some app are actually ridiculous.

Exodus is a good wallet for beginners. It has a nice interface, easy to navigate features and a very much appealing design. A newbie in cryptocurrencies without any technical knowledge can actually use it with ease. In addition, this wallet also supports numerous coins, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dash, DigiByte, Augur, Decred, Gnosis, and Golem. I highly recommend that you try this wallet.

If you want to store then use electrum.It's friendly wallet,but don't forget to save private key.
For Etherium you can use myetherwallet.com easy to use,you can add custom tokens,and it's support ETH based currency :)
