Several people have reported this. In the next update, if a scrollbar is necessary for your display, it will not fade away, but be shown continuously.
Or put a smaller QR code so that all the buttons below are always visible? And touch it to zoom.  Hmm... "Touch to zoom" Interesting idea. |

We are in particular fond of the Portuguese and Spanish translation as today the conference in Buenos Aires is launching tomorrow. If you are going to the conference please spread the word. Unfortunately Andreas and I were not able to attend this time. |

Is there any reason I am not getting an update for mycelium wallet? My testnet version updated to 1.1.0 and again to 1.1.1 but not the main version. The play store shows the new version. Is something wrong? I tried restarting the phone too..
We are doing rolling updates for prodnet, right now it is at 20%, it should reach 100% later today. |

Step 12.5: verify that you can fund/swipe one of your paper wallets using a small amount. On success discard the one you tested with.

AnonyMint, the first 3 times you think you understand Bitcoin you are wrong. Lots of us have been there. It is a harsh, but amazing trip.

I wonder how you ended up having 100's of wallet.dat files from different versions of bitcoin-qt...?
I am not sure whether I would like the story.

It's however good to design the wallet for both basic and advanced users in mind. It's not a big issue if I have to go through a few menus to be able to ignore the backup reminder, that's what advanced users do. I go through all possible settings in a program in detail every time I use anything. When something can't be customized (in any way), that is always a disappointment.
The problem is "advanced users" are often the victims of their own intelligence. And then there is just plain bad luck - like losing the phone, or dropping it in your beer. A true "expert user" would recognise backups are MUCH more important than a nag screen. @Jan - dont remove it. And those of us importing our already-backed-up keys just have to go through the verification procedure again each time? A procedure which pretty much (appropriately) requires a printout of the keys? *sigh* Maybe two versions of the app might be warranted. The normal version, and the "DANGEROUS", "RISKY", "ADVANCED EXPERT MODE" version that scares all the newbies away with descriptions like "this version is far riskier, and YOU STAND A GOOD CHANCE OF LOSING YOUR COINS if you don't take extra precautions on your own." Of course, knowing that that would require much more work than it might sound like, I'm only joking. But a guy can dream. (Or try to bribe you with bitcoins....) (Or try to bribe you with bitcoins....)  If you import a key you never have to verify it. You already proved that you have elsewhere. Verification is only required for keys that were generated by the app. |

So I hate to bring this up... but it's sort of imperitive... will you release a Litecoin version of MyCelium wallet? Litecoin is kind of becoming a BIG deal now.
We don't have any plans for adding Litecoin right now. There is plenty to do to just get Bitcoin right. We may reconsider later on once the dust settles. |

"Auto Pay" feature: Contrary to what some of you may think we do have users who use the wallet for very large sums. In many ways it is a lot easier to handle large amounts on a small dedicated device rather than a dedicated computer. It is both cheaper, easier, and requires less space. Therefore the security considerations of the autopay feature made us pull it. We will add it back in, but we want to do it right, with daily limits or something. Please have a little patience, we have a huge pile of requests, and we want to do it right. "Forced" backup: You won't believe how many (sometimes angry) emails I have received because of Bitcoin loss. In the end it always falls back to the developers <-- me & Andreas. I don't like people being angry at me, and I don't like that people loose money. If I can choose I'd prefer to have Technomage be angry with me because he gets reminded to be responsible with his own money  Bitcoin is all about being in control of your own money, and with that comes responsibility <--- this is really hard for many people to grasp, especially newcomers. We wish to help our users as best we can to remember to make backups and make it both secure and easy. I believe we have achieved that with this release. I do recognize that some of you (my guess is very few of you) don't care whether you loose your private keys. My suggestion is to add an option which is available in Expert Mode, that allows you to ignore backups. If we make it, it will require several "OK" acknowledgements and/or require the user to enter "I UNDERSTAND"... or something. |

so mycelium would, theoretically, be able to provide a simple "enter and swipe" import function for casascius coins?
It is already there. I would prefer not to clutter this thread with Mycelium stuff. You have to put the string into the clipboard for this to work. (This means trusting the other apps on your device) and then go to Cold Storage and click the "Clipboard" button, and so forth. |

Andreas, I am really not trying to pick a fight here. But let me answer your questions.
I just wanted to know the pros. I think the question isn't answered. What's the pro of relying on a centralized service for getting unspent outputs and transaction history? You're right about the exchange rates. To my knowledge, atm its not possible to get them in a decentralized way. hmm.. I believe I wrote that in my last answer: Both models have their pros and cons.
What's the pro of relying on a proprietary centralized service? The only pro I can think of is support for importing private keys, but that's a dangerous operation anyway. Andreas, I am really not trying to pick a fight here. But let me answer your questions. Importing/exporting private keys is crucial for giving people the freedom to choose another wallet and doing backup/restore. Importing to memory is crucial for cold storage spending, which is quite handy for secure offline storage and swiping a paper slip from a Bitcoin ATM. We are both relying on proprietary centralized servers to get exchange rates. Mycelium also relies on that to get unspent outputs and transaction history So to rephrase: 1. Restoring your device and BAM, you are good to go 2. Cold storage spending from a paper backup. 3. Cold storage spending from a Bitcoin ATM paper slip. Bitcoin Wallet for Android has other benefits, and I really really believe that we need as much diversity as we can get. One size does not fit all. |

Both models have their pros and cons. Some prefer one, some prefer the other. We need as much diversity in bitcoinland as we can get. Not everyone wants the chicken to taste the same.

2. Most importantly: Since any app (including a barcode scanner) can launch the wallet with a bitcoin URI, it would be possible to use the autopay feature continously to empty your wallet. Is it the same with NFC? Do no not yet have NFC support, so I cannot tell exactly how it will work. |

Alternatively you could do this:

Nice ASCII art ;-) We discussed this quite a bit... and I lost :-) At version 0.1 - 0.6 (or so) keys/addresses page was on the left At version 0.7.x - 0.8.x Keys/addresses was on a separate page (some people hated it because it was too difficult to switch address) At version 0.8.x Keys/addresses was on a separate page and you could swipe addresses at the top. (some people hated it because key management was still too far away) At version 1.0 keys/addresses is back at the left. Nn address swiping at the top. I like it the way it is now for several reasons: 1. It is easy to swipe left to switch address, and you even get a nice overview with balances and everything 2. In version 0.8.x, when you have several addresses, it actually took long time to swipe one address at a time at the top 3. I don't think there should be too many ways of doing the same thing. It is confusing |
