I’ve been using this wallet for a couple of years, nearly three actually (2015), and I am very happy with it. I’m not a very technical person and struggle a lot to understand computer language on its own, before I even have to tackle the language surrounding all things crypto currency, the blockchain and the market. I’ve reached out a number of times now to the Support Team and they have been extremely responsive. In fact, when I first had an Airbitz wallet something went wrong with it and I couldn’t open it no matter what I did. I reached out for support and actually received a small bounty for bringing a ‘bug’ to the developers attention - wow! Since then I’ve had no problems with the wallet. It’s so straightforward for me. I tried the Bread, Mycelium, Lux and Hive. None seemed as secure as the Airbitz, and as easy to use. I have the Jaxx now too, which is reasonably ok but I feel my coins are more secure in the Airbitz; plus, I like having the Directory on board. This Christmas I’ve set up another five of these wallets with BTC as gifts for my grandchildren and friends. (Just small amounts to get them started). It felt great doing that. I had a problem with the size of the mining fee I was paying to transfer the small amounts. I couldn’t wrap my head around the instructions on the community board so I once again reached out for support. Literally within a few minutes I had an email with clearer instructions and screen shots to help me. They were so very helpful and polite. I also received help back in September this year when a payment I had made went wrong, at the merchants end. It’s too complicated to explain here.
I don’t know if my brain is ready for the Edge wallet yet so I’ll stick it my Airbitz for now. To anyone reading this review, remember, I’m in my mid-60’s and only started using a computer 20years ago. This might sound crazy but absolutely ‘No one’ else in my family use computers, they use smart phones, and everyone of them think I’m completely mad for ‘falling for this Bitcoin crap’. Well perhaps I am - me and a few million other people.
