I don't think it is the wisest thing to do, the chances of leaving your phone somewhere or breaking it are too high, desktop or an offline option would be the best solution.

i personally wouldn't recommend to save your bitcoin into mobile phone because I had a bad experience my smartphone has died because i was dropping my smartphone into the rivers when i was on vacations several month ago and i can't access my wallet and all my private data was gone and i think if you want store your bitcoin especially for huge amount my advice is just save into your private computer or laptop and don't let someone else use or access your computer
as long as you keep a backup of your private key can still open the wallet and I think it is the fault of your own is not a major problem in storing bitcoin in mobile phone.

You are right about that but I think it can be okay for low amounts, if you have bigger amounts you should just use a offline wallet instead.

It's save enough to store bitcoins on phone. I've done it several times, and nothing's bad happened. maybe for the tips, don't download too many applications and don't klick links, be careful of these things. It's same tips if you want to store your bitcoins on PC.
I agree mycelium comes in handy here. I also don't have many apps on my phone; i only use satoshi convertor to calculate the current conversion rates and yourfreedom for when i have no wifi area around me.

I do! I use a phone solely for security purposes such as 2FA and a normal phone where I do my daily things on. I like to keep things seperate.

You are right about that but I think it can be okay for low amounts, if you have bigger amounts you should just use a offline wallet instead. With indeed small amounts its no problem at all but if you are using larger amounts its gonna be a problem for sure indeed. Large amounts always need a offline wallet in my opinion.

yeah I would suggest to use desktop wallet. of course it will be more secure than using the phone wallet. if you do not have the urgency to use the wallet phone. it is better to avoid it dude

It completely depends on how safe your phone is. Do you encrypt your files? Do you go on sketchy websites? Do you have malware? Did you scan for malware recently/constantly? Well depending on ho you answer these, yes it's safe or no its not. There's no blanket answer here.

Its in my a okay way to store them but only for small amounts for some transactions, for big amounts a better secured wallet is needed.

If I backup the keys onto my phone's sdcard, don't other apps have temporary access to that file before I delete it? I'm using a Micromax phone and I'm concerned that the phone contains pre-installed malware.
Is it better to just move the money to a wallet on my PC?
I think store bitcoin in the mobile phone very high risk. Because the phone can be lost at any time and if there are bad people who find it and know what is bitcoin then your can dissapear I suggest using an online wallet. thank you

i dont think that it is safe to keep your violet in moblie phone. i think its too risky. if you lost your mobile phone then what wil you do. even the pc is not good to keep to violet. if you print the on a paper and keep it on a safe place where the access of other people may not be easy.

I use mycelium, but not in the way most do. I use it in tandem with my ledger wallet. Without my ledger plugged into my phone (through an otg cable), it's like a watch-only address. As soon as I plug it, I can send bitcoin without a hitch.

Well, i never stored my bitcoins my mobile phone because i think it's risky and can easily get lost if your phone lost. It will safe if you don't do something wrong.
