Title: Re: How to sign message using android bitcoin wallet address..... Post by: ForgottenPassword on September 16, 2014, 06:00:13 PM Signing a message isn't supported by your client yet. You'd need to export the private key for the Bitcoin address you need to sign a message from and import it into another client that supports signing, such as electrum or bitcoin core. I'm not sure if there are any Android clients that support signing yet.
I'm not too familiar with Bitcoin Wallet for Android so I'm not sure how you'd go about exporting it. How would I sign a transaction? Signing a transaction is essentially sending Bitcoins.

Just click on "keys" tab and select the address you want then click "sign message". It's quick and simple and has share link and copy to clipboard button.
