User reviews

Fast and lightweight

Just downloaded the app. The UX is very easy and intuitive. Love that they’ve worked so close with Flexa to streamline adoption and privacy.

Absolutely not acceptable

Running this wallet will require to scan entire network. It will take you days to make your funds appear in the wallet, because the entire network needs to be scanned and validated before hand. Validation process is extremely slow. it doesn’t happen on the background so you will need the app always on. This is completely not user friendly, more, it even doesn’t mention anywhere. The developers clearly have no idea what means mobile app.

钱包不能正常使用

钱包打开特别困难,昨天挂了一晚上才同步成功,但是发送币的时候提示错误,请教了内行,说有Bug,麻烦作者解决

Simple UI

Simple user interface and perfect for holding Zcash.

Too Slow

The downloading + scanning steps at startup take too long. Much longer than ZEC Wallet Lite.

Don’t have the patience to use this.
