i would recommend "bitcoin wallet" the one which is alike to core, it ws on the first spot, with an hold top five for android
I use the same wallet on my android. I don't trust 3rd parties like Mycellium, I want a "real" wallet that doesn't require you to put any trust in an outside party. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schildbach.walletim use mycellium and mycellium work perfet, mycellium is not 3rd party like xapo/coinbase, hw run like multibit(on PC) , he give you full acces to sign message, backup private key or restore you wrong if you say mycellium is 3ed parties

Mycellium is the 3rd party. They use their own custom nodes to process the blockchain. They use a centralized API. If their servers go away or become compromised you are shit out of luck. You should educate yourself about the wallet you are using. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=293472.msg3158655#msg3158655https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=293472.300https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2yxid5/chainalasys_vs_mycelium_the_full_story/Bitcoin wallet is completely decentralized and does not require you to trust in 3rd party nodes to operate.

It's true that Mycelium relies on centralized servers for blockchain access, and the availability of these servers is a single point of failure (there are no third-party compatible servers, as the server code is not open source.) However, this does not mean that they can take control of your wallet or that you can't access your funds when their servers are unavailable. The wallet uses standard hierarchical deterministic key management, so by copying the seed to another wallet supporting the same mechanism, you would gain access to your funds again.

That should simply work. Mycelium also supports working with single addresses. It's not the default mode because it is recommended to use new addresses for every transaction to make tracing of your transactions harder, but for some cases, receiving several payments on just one address is ok. For example, the address in my profile is used to receive signature campaign payments, and I've added the corresponding private key to my Mycelium wallet so that I can access it when needed.

Blockchain.info is definitely not a choice in both security and UI wise. There was a issue which affected the RNG on it, causing lots of BTC getting lost. It wasn't fixed for several months till it gained some attention. Arguably, other wallets are also as userfriendly as it is. The currencies is not much of a feature, any wallet can display the Bitcoins in many currency accurately.

Coinbase isnt bad too with no fees.

Coinbase isnt bad too with no fees. Blockchain.info had a HUGE and bad record with various vulnerabilities due to their negligence, costing users lots of money. I don't have any reason to believe that they are changing with so much issues popping out (Mostly due to the poor RNG). Coinbase is a shared wallet and you do not control any money unless you use multisig vault. They can still freeze your money.

If you have a big amount better to put it in a cold storage but with small transactions i still prefer the no fee option risking to loose few mBTC. Thanks for your answer iram
