Title: Bitcoin Core Wallet synchronised with iOS wallet
Post by: neral on June 19, 2019, 04:17:16 PM
Hello,

Is it possible to have a bitcoin core wallet, and an iOS wallet, synchronised together.

Since Bitcoin Core is a HD wallet, it’s hard to do.

I have tried with Blue Wallet (BIP84 Bech32 Native), transcode the seed into a master private key, but I can’t import the master private key into bitcoin core...

I have tried to create a wallet in Bitcoin Core, dump the wallet to get the master private key, but I don’t find any iOS app that can import it...

If anyone has a solution ?

Bitcoin Core does not use any of the commonly used derivation paths of other wallet software. So unless you have a wallet that lets you set a custom derivation path, it won't work.

Generally though, you shouldn't be using the same wallet from two different machines. The software can become confused, and depending on the sync states, may miss some transactions thus showing different balances.

Ok. Thanks. Personnaly you don’t use a phone wallet ?

The best i found is BlueWallet, but maybe is there better wallets on iOS ?

(Trust Wallet is very good, but you can’t import you own private key).
