For online storage I use blockchain.info, but for offline storage I'm going to abandon the wallet altogether, store the private key in an Aegis secure key is enough
Me too use blockchain.info for online storage. But since wallet hacks are getting too frequent, nowadays If you have 2-factor set up and aern't lax with the security of your wallet.dat file you should be fine. The only people who ever lose funds in these hacks are when they haven't got 2-factor set up.

Electrum, Blockchain.info and bitWallet. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I used Multibit but lost the files, I will probably use Multibit again instead of Electrum. Just want to test the features. ~~MZ~~

Nope. I have seen multiple posts here in bitcointalk, from people who had their coins stolen from blockchain.info despite enabling the 2-factor set up. If the hacker somehow succeeds in installing a keylogger or other spyware, then even the 2-factor authorization will be of very little use. Also, a lot of hacks are also occurring as a result of phishing links.

I use Core mostly. I've experimented with some others, but it's either Core for the desktop, or Bitcoin for Android.

I'm using Multibit but probably I will change because some users are experiencing bugs and I won't be the next one.

I'm also using blockchain.info but I didn't mention it before because I only use it for small amounts then I send all to my Multibit wallet.

My favourite is Electrum, it sync in a second and it's simple to use.

If the hacker somehow succeeds in installing a keylogger or other spyware, then even the 2-factor authorization will be of very little use. Also, a lot of hacks are also occurring as a result of phishing links. This is likely because the hacker would somehow gain access to a backup of the encrypted wallet file. AFAIK 2FA on blockchain.info is only specific to the identifier (username) of the wallet, if someone were to import a backup to another identifier then 2FA would not be required to spend the bitcoin.

Is there any halfway decent app for iPhone? Or anything in the works? I either use my android tablet or the blockchain website, but both are cumbersome...
Hive got released recently for ios. I think it supports both BTC and LTC (not sure). I have been wanting to try it but my phone's ios is too old Does Hive let you create an account to save your wallets to? I'm worried that my wallet will be lost if my phone is reset/broken for any reason. Nope. You just want to save your pass phrase. Even if your phone breaks, you can use web by entering the paraphrase. Is there any halfway decent app for iPhone? Or anything in the works?

Try bitWallet. Best iOS wallet so far. If you just want to use only 1 address, then coinpocket is a better one but I don't suggest using a wallet having only one address forever. Otherwise, you can use web wallets like hive, Blockchain, GreenAddress, ANX etc... Web wallets isn't secure. So IMO, bitWallet is the best option. I hope an iOS developer would develop Mycelium for iOS. Waiting for that day! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ~~MZ~~

I use blockchain wallet as I never had any troubles using them. BTC-e seems like a great option too.
