When I try to add a Doge wallet (for low-fee testing), it gets stuck at "Loading Accounts". After a while I unplugged it, tried again, and got the same result. Google tells me I'm not alone. That confirms the "worthless black brick"

Once I have a cable to connect it, I'll see if it works with Mycelium on mobile. If it works I can keep it as a more secure travel wallet, although it's a bit big. I'm not sure what to do with the "Loading Accounts" thing.
I now have an OTG cable, so I tested the Keepkey with Mycelium on Android: it connects, then tells me there is no Account. I haven't funded it yet, and Mycelium calls it "cold storage",
so I'm not sure if this is the expected behaviour. It would be nice if I can use the Keepkey to receive funds through Mycelium. Update:
according to this Reddit post, it should be able to send and receive Bitcoin, but it also confirms Mycelium won't detect an account with 0
BTC. I'll have to Import a Keepkey account as read-only, but haven't tried that yet.
I noticed verifying the password on Keepkey takes a long time. I can't imagine a reason for that, entering the password is so easy, and after that I have to wait for what feels like 30 seconds (I didn't time it).
I also tested the Chrome app again. I didn't dare try Doge again, so I added Bitcoin Gold. After a few seconds, it said it's added. But it didn't show up

I tried again with Bitcoin Cash: that one actually shows up. But I have no use for it.
Then I tested beta.shapeshift.com, which, amazingly, shows a long list of accepted altcoins! I deposited some Doge, and was able to send it again. The fee was more than the usual 1 Doge, and I didn't see any way to choose it. That makes me worry about Bitcoin fees, so I didn't send any Bitcoin to the Keepkey.
But even though beta.shapeshift.com seems to work, it's quite annoying. After everything I do, I get a popup asking me to make an account (which means KYC) and get some of their own shittokens
for free. If I click to add another Doge account, I get the same popup, but no new Doge account. Apparently they think I'll make an account if they show me the same annoying popup often enough. Instead, I put the black bricklet back in it's box

All in all it can work, but out of all software options the only one that works is designed to convince you to use Shapeshift. Why am I even surprised?
That's too bad though, because the device itself works much nicer than my Ledger. I really don't like entering a PIN using Ledger's 2 small buttons, and scrolling addresses to confirm on the small display isn't ideal either. Too bad Coinomi doesn't support Keepkey, that would be a good GUI to use.
