Opinions on Hodl Wallet - Ios

[dende93]

Hello, so in my searching for the perfect mobile wallet I found this Hodl Wallet, that has all the function that I appreciate, such as denomination in sat, fees customization, connect to your own node. But I would like to get some feedback from someone who has used it, if he had problems and if in general is technically a trustworthy wallet. Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, the Hodl Wallet app on Android often has login problems and system errors. Besides, I don't like this dark interface design. So I use now the Ownr Wallet and Enjin

I think you should move your thread in a bit more appropriate section Wallet Software >  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=37.0
Bottom left corner, click the move button, and find the Wallet software section.

thanks for the feedback, yes the interface is a bit spartan but i really love the dark theme, like green wallet. Anyway I didn't know Owrn and I tried Enjinn but I don't like them, besides the fact that they doesn't have even one of the fundamental properties I'm looking for and that a wallet must have

Did you mean Hodl wallet ----> https://github.com/hodlwallet/hodl-wallet-ios? According to what I read about it, it is a fork of BRD. You can read more of this quote.

Our wallet is non-custodial and doens't have any dependencies that prevent it from working, it uses BIP39 for Mnemonics (12 words) and BIP32 to derive addresses, Bech32 and Legacy addresses are support it, you can, if you want to create your wallet without an internet connection, it uses SPV (and that has its own privacy problems but it's secure).

Read more from the developer here ---> https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/b2ccvc/is_hodl_wallet_safe/

I do not think that these features that they added are convincing to me, so if you want to download an IOS wallet it is better to choose between any of these wallets ----> https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet?step=5&platform=ios&user=experienced.

I didn't know about this wallet until I came across this thread, and after checking it out, I must say I'm impressed, It has all the features the average user would ask for. Open source, fees customization, fingerprint encryption, full SegWit support, and most importantly (that you already mentioned) the ability to connect to your own node, which is a feature that Mycelium promised a long time ago and failed to deliver. The only feature I would like to see in the future would be Trezor and Ledger support.

I would continue to use the wallet, but I wouldn't recommend it for the storage of large amounts. It might be open source, but the team behind it is unknown and the source has probably not been checked by other developers yet, as it's new on the crypto scene.

If anyone is interested in seeing the wallet in action without installing it, check this review, it covers almost all features: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_KDf5WYfzQ&t=1s

yes it's that, looks good because it has all the things that are desirable in a mobile wallet, of course every wallet on a smartphone is not secure and shouldn't be used as a main wallet

I was impressed too and I am amazed that he is not known as others who are far more overrated.
I'd give them some time, let's see where they go
