I prefer mobile wallets because they are easier to access and they go anywhere you go, you cant take a PC with you when you are going away from your home, another reason why I dont like PC wallets is the easy way of getting compromised through internet browsing on the PC, mobile wallets are safer.
Mobile wallets such as TRUST wallet are proven to be very safe, I have used it for more than 3 years and have never had a problem, while my desktop wallet has been hacked, currently I strictly limit the use of desktop wallets, if the transaction is complete, I immediately switch to a mobile wallet. Desktop Wallets more safest than Mobile Wallets, if you are already got hacked may be you clicked any suspicious link. I would like to prefer you to use Hardware Wallet, your assets will be more secure and especially if you have big amount of assets then you should use Hardware Wallet. Mobile Wallets is very handy because it’s very easy accessible at anywhere.

if you use an iphone and download a wallet from the official app, how safe are you if you have clicked on links or even opened files from your iphone though? Or let say you preview a document on an iphone but do not open it. Possible your iphone is hacked/malware where you typing anything on phone would be a concern?
Thus imagine downloading a mobile wallet and it generating a seed. You write it down on paper. You send coins to it. But if you have any malware or keylogger on your iphone, couldn't that person see your seed that was on the screen? Then basically enter the seed on their own wallet?

Malware does not only apply to iPhone because malware is also available on devices that have internet because all this security only we can prevent in various ways, so mobile or desktop wallets are equally vulnerable to malware if we are careless in carrying out activities on the internet. So both mobile and desktop wallets are good and it all depends on the user which one is more comfortable to use and according to their needs.

While desktop and mobile wallets serve different purposes, I prefer desktop wallets. Desktops are more robust and will probably last longer in terms of durability of the gadget, while mobile phones develop faults easily IMO. While it is important to save your seed phrase whether you are using mobile or desktop wallets, it is easier to loose your mobile phone than to loose your desktop. It is more critical to save your seed phrase if you are using mobile wallet. Though, there are a lot of future potentials for mobile wallets, I will prefer to hold smaller crypto assets in mobile wallets while bigger crypto assets can be held in desktop wallets.

Between mobile and a desktop wallet which one do you prefer the most and why? Again I think desktop wallets have more open source wallets than mobile, which desktop wallet is the best open-source wallet that you know of?
It depends on the context and size of holdings and purpose of the wallet. If spending is the purpose, the contents should remain and should go to a mobile wallet. (because you can't take your desktop to the store) If holding is the purpose, the contents can be larger and should go to a more secure wallet IE: desktop or hardware. (this is also good for staking purposes.)

Mobile phones that are handle with carelessness gets faulty easily, its the same thing with PC too, I have been using a smartphone for four years before buying a new one and it still works, I was able to sell to another person because the phone was still very neat.

You said that wallet is very easy to use on desktop, yes it is true that it is very easy to use any wallet on desktop but you also say that using wallet on desktop is safer than all. It just depends on the plate you are using because its application is the most secure if hard security is complete and if not then full of risk. Not everyone like you has a desktop so it is not possible for everyone to use a desktop wallet. I am a mobile user. I use Trust Wallet all the time. And the two most secure mobile wallets I have seen are the multiple wallets: Trust wallet, Metamask wallet.

It all depends on the usage but the bottom line is that it's important to keep the phrase in a place that we think is safer, because either desktop or mobile it's a technology which we never know how long it will last, if we have both we can do backups both on desktop and mobile

Personally, I tend to use a Mobile wallet. Well, I think it's simpler to use, and I use a trust wallet. I think, people who use Mobile wallet are also using the same app. I rarely use a desktop wallet because it's vulnerable enough for anyone other than me to use the same computer. apart from using a Mobile wallet, I also still use a Web wallet. well, for future development, it would be better if we use a hard wallet. it might be safer.

mobile wallet were most popular wallet that used by most crypto currency holder. easy to access when we in journey or something else be main advantages using this mobile walle. beside of this most mobile wallet also support several blockchain , so we didnt need alot application in our phone.

It depends on your goals, if you prefer to pay in person instead of online, you need a mobile wallet and if you are going to make regular payments it is best to keep your money in a wallet that is easy to use and access. And mobile wallets and desktop wallets are also viable options. however I don't think a cell phone is a good idea, while a wallet may be relatively safe, any mobile device is relatively unsafe, in terms of the possibility of being physically lost or stolen, compared to other crypto storage options.

mobile wallets are more flexible than desktop wallets. That's why I chose a mobile wallet, because it's easy to carry anywhere. and the mobile wallets that I use are safepal, trustwallet, metamask, and slope wallet. but if you ask which one is more secure, I think desktop wallets are more secure than mobile wallets which are more vulnerable to hacking.

MEW seems the most preferred wallet for ethereum and erc 20 tokens but if you have multiple currencies then I would say go for a hardware wallet which is more safer than any other wallet. While talking about mobile wallets its not really safe because we may be affected with malware simply by installing an application or even through clicking the links.

I preferred using a desktop wallet, for me, it's very easy to copy and paste the address using a desktop. but I also use a mobile wallet if I'm away from my computer.

I think they are the same, as most wallets now offer versions for different platforms. It completely depends on the preferences and habits of each user. Computers and smartphones are both devices that are constantly connected to the internet, they are very vulnerable to hackers. So always be careful when using these 2 platforms, it is best for each investor to equip themselves with a hardware wallet to ensure the safety of their assets.

Depends on you if what suits you. Are you outgoing? Then mobile wallet is the best for you but if not and you mostly hang out inside your house then desktop wallet is the way to go but for the both, both wallets are also needed. When it comes to if it's open source or not, I think most of us didn't care at all. Most of us are not into a more technical stuffs but what important for them is that they can store a crypto or have a place where they can send or receive their coins. Most importantly they will use it as long as it's a popular brand because security is always next to it but anyway I search the web for the best open source wallet and mew or myetherwallet is always on the list, maybe this is the best among all? I have been using the wallet since 2017 and I have no problems so far.

Computers and smartphones are both devices that are constantly connected to the internet, they are very vulnerable to hackers. So always be careful when using these 2 platforms, it is best for each investor to equip themselves with a hardware wallet to ensure the safety of their assets.
Even though we are connected to the internet, it is not easy for viruses to damage the devices we use because desktops and smartphone have virus detectors, but we must be aware of the possibility that will occur by carrying out a routine scan process to avoid viruses. But the high level of security remains in hardware wallet.

It depends on the context and size of holdings and purpose of the wallet. If spending is the purpose, the contents should remain and should go to a mobile wallet. (because you can't take your desktop to the store) If holding is the purpose, the contents can be larger and should go to a more secure wallet IE: desktop or hardware. (this is also good for staking purposes.) A desktop or a mobile wallet are just tools that we have at our disposal and it is up to us to use them for the appropriate purpose, when it comes to long term holding, a paper, hardware or desktop wallet are the best options as you can keep them offline and if you can secure your physical location as well then the chances you will get hacked drop considerably. However if you want to spend some of your coins at a local business then that is where mobile wallets shine as you can use them to buy whatever you want while you are away from your home, however I would never use a mobile wallet to store my coins long term as smartphones are online all the time, which gives hackers many chances to steal your coins.
