### 1/5 — Don’t send

*2025-07-04, version 3.15.0*

App doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Перестал работать после обновления.

*2025-07-02, version 3.15.0*

Пытаюсь восстановить и делаю синхронизацию, чтобы перевести баланс на новый кошелек. После нескольких попыток синхронизаций баланс 0,00 хотя средства там есть. Что делать?

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2025-06-16, version 3.15.0*

App is broken , showing zero balance in my wallet when I restored.

### 1/5 — Exist scam MISSING COIN 6/13/25

*2025-06-14, version 3.15.0*

I deposited around $800 and waited 15 hours no transaction history or anything so I started refreshing the block and nothing! It turns out my coin is now in a completely different wallet from the one Litewallet gave me, and not only do I have no transaction history of ever receiving the coin but the blockchain says it got deposited and sent out. There is ZERO way somebody could have had my seed phrase and every other wallet I move my seed to had a zero balance even though I have a few dollars in Litewallet. I don’t know what to do

### 1/5 — Sync problems and crashing

*2025-06-01, version 3.14.0*

This all always crashes, and fails to sync it was helpful and reliable till this syncing happened to me. I had $100 inside my wallet but couldnt send or received since my wallet couldnt be synced. Re downloaded replanted my seeds and it’s bugging (Stuck on Languages) and my seeds cannot be retrieve elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Steht schon auf der ersten Seite

*2025-05-29, version 3.14.0*

Nachdem das App down geloaded wurde, erscheint nur eine blaue Seite wo die Sprache ausgewählt werden kann. Das war es. Mehr geht nicht

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-05-28, version 3.14.0*

I bought a new phone and tried downloading this app to set up my wallet, and it won’t work. It gets to the section where I pick a language and won’t proceed to the next step.

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE THIS APP

*2025-05-25, version 3.14.0*

Lite coins/money does really just disappear. Zero support. That’s a different level of crazy when handling money that people out here putting in work for. They will keep your money tied up for days!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-05-24, version 3.14.0*

Seems impossible to pass the language selection screen. I’ve tried everything I can think of: Restart the app, restart the phone, change the system permissions in every possible combination, reinstall the app, change the language, with no result. Fortunately, I still have a working install on an Android device (which also had some trouble to get to work, but finally it did, and have been working fine since then), so I guess my fraction of Litecoin will not be lost, but I’ll have to think in a new wallet for it. Too sad.

### 2/5 — Айфон

*2025-05-15, version 3.14.0*

Что то перестал работать на айфоне.зависает на установки языка.А жаль,хорошее было приложение😪😪
