Sorry you are having issues. We upgraded to the latest iOS and a new bug appeared. We found a fix in v3.13.5 and have waiting 2 weeks for explanation for the rejection from the App Store. So, we are waiting to meet them this week. The good news is we have a working version in Testflight. Please check it out and see it works for you: https://testflight.apple.com/join/zNmFTm37

Don’t not download

This app will let you put money on their wallet but forgot trying to get it out or any help from the dev time , this is a clearing a scam, the only time this app works is when you send money to this wallet app but then will start to act up and bug out a bf won’t let you save your phrase but will take your money , the dev will tell you delete the app and re type in a phrase it won’t let you save , so they can steal your money also last time but the app half work when you use a vpn

Crashes on upload

The app is a great simple app to use but since of around 2 weeks ago, the app has started to crash every time I open it, so I cannot load in meaning I have no access to my litecoin balance.

Please, if you have not done so yet, you can send us a ticket (support.litewallet.io) and we will help you solve your problem. Thank you.

Charges high service fee

This app charges $1 service to send 1 LTC. Litecoin transaction fees are less than $0.01. Once your LTC is in this app, they do not allow you to export your wallet to another app that doesn’t have fees. Do not store any LTC in this wallet or you will be forced to pay them a high fee. There are a lot of other options for apps that charge no service fee whatsoever

Response from developer

Fees are gradual depending on the amount to be sent, they are approximately 0.70 cents for 1 LTC, however, above a certain amount, they never go above €2.82, so sending any amount of LTC is very cheap.

Expensive fees

Don’t update app if you have an old version!

They added an expensive “service fee” (typically $2) to the app in a surreptitious way in early 2024. I could find no mention of it anywhere online. All they said in the update log was “Lower fees!” when it was introduced. You only notice the service fee when you’re about to send LTC, depending on how much you are paying attention.

It used to cost $0.01 network fee per transaction. Now the network fee + service fee as of May 2024 costs:
Sending up to $20 = $0.20 fee
Sending $20 or more = $0.30 fee
Sending $50 or more = $1.00 fee
Sending $100 or more = $2.00 fee
Sending $500 or more = $2.50 fee
Sending $1000 or more = $3.00 fee

Sorry you are not enjoying Litewallet. We do clearly label the fees in the send view. The app has grown over the years and as it becomes more popular, the costs have risen. We have been subsidized by the Litecoin Foundation for 7 years and we want to want to stop losing the foundation so much money. If you want a non-service fee version, please check out Newborn and restore your seed there. You can use it to send MWEB transactions too.

Weird

I woke up wanting to work and buy lite coin i downloaded this app and this app really gave me 12 random words including (crack) and more words for me to remember 😂 they asked me to write them down after they showed me the words i couldn’t remember them Ofcurse now I will not use this app the the development is just very stupid. I don’t appreciate your response.

Response from developer

Welcome to the real world on crypto! Those 12 words are called a seed phrase and they are an easy way to recall your private key (a really long list of numbers and letters) Litewallet is a self-hosted wallet that is the number one decentralized Litecoin mobile app. We don’t control any aspect of your copy and you are responsible for keeping those words. Protecting those words are really important. Had you entered the words maintained some Litecoin and lost your phone, you can just restore the wallet on a new device. We call them wallets but they are actually, keyrings. All crypto (Litecoin) lives on the blockchain…not your phone. Other wallets hold the keys and they ask you to trust them.

THIS IS A SCAM

AS SOON AS I GOT SENT LITECOIN MY APP KEEPS CRASHING

Buggy

Simple to set up and use, however, when it came to completing a payment, the app wouldn’t let me scroll down to click complete payment

So disappointed

Have been using Litewallet for years and loved it. It’s now consigned to the bin for me. Constantly crashes on multiple devices once the Blockchain updates. (Even tested it on a friends phone yesterday). Developers say it is fixed. It is not. Support have been less than helpful.

To rub salt in the wounds they have now added a compulsory ‘Service fee’ of 1.3% along with the network fee on every transaction. Cost be $1.04 to send 1 LTC. Absolute joke and way to ruin what was a decent app.
