The simplest way to send and receive bitcoin over Lightning. Pick a name, get your Lightning address, and you're ready: no setup, no settings to learn.
- Your own Lightning address that receives even while your phone is off
- Pay any Lightning invoice or address by scanning a QR code
- Send bitcoin as a zap: a QR code or link anyone can claim
- A recovery phrase that stays on your phone
Your bitcoin is kept by a mint, like cash in your pocket: keep amounts small.
Beta until version 1.0.0: not ready for everyday money yet. Any update may change how the app works or break what it did before, and bugs can cost you what's in the wallet. Use it only to try it out, with tiny amounts you could lose without minding.

Release notes
On White Wallet v0.8.1.
Added
- The newer version of the LNURLcash protocol (LUD-25/26): your wallet asks each mint which version it speaks. New zaps use new keys. Zaps and addresses from before move to them by themselves on a refresh, for free, and a mint upgraded later is noticed. A restore finds both.
- Address fees: a mint may charge for an address. Setup shows the fee and lets you reserve the name, pay later or go on without one. A reserved name is on the addresses screen until it is paid or runs out.
- Payments to someone on the same mint are free, with nothing pending.
- Settings → Wallets: your wallet's page, with its name, recovery phrase, mints and account. Both can be renamed.
- "Scan for zaps" on the wallet's page looks through everything your recovery phrase holds at each of your mints again, as a restore does, and adds what it finds. Each mint says when it was last scanned, and the main screen says so when a scan didn't get through.
- A zap you get as a link is kept from the moment you claim it, so a bad connection no longer loses it: your wallet goes on trying by itself.
- A zap on a mint that now signs with another key than the one your wallet knows can be kept until you decide about the key.
- Zaps whose link carries a script can be claimed.
- A whole zap can be handed out without a connection (Zaps → Share as QR).
- A shared zap's screen says when its mint last answered for it.
Changed
- Simpler setup: create a wallet or restore one with its recovery phrase, nothing else on the first screen. Then your mint: see its fees and limits before you add it; a restored wallet shows what it finds there. Then your Lightning address on it, which a restore gets back by itself where it can, and which you can always skip. If the app closes during setup, it goes on where you were.
- The main screen is quieter: "Scan a QR code" is an icon in the top bar, and one scanner does for both: a zap scanned under Send opens Claim, and an invoice or address scanned under Claim opens Send.
- Your own shared zap, scanned or pasted on Claim, is not claimed: the screen says you shared it and offers to take it back.
- A page that takes more than a moment to load says so, and no screen shows something else first.
- Settings has no search any more.
- Zaps are kept as they arrive: the zap strategy starts on "Manual", and "Keep only one zap" is a choice under Zap settings. Wallets that never picked one switch too, so their zaps are no longer combined on their own.
- A sent zap found spent no longer claims the recipient took it: usually they did, but another device with the same recovery phrase may have.
- The watch-only key moved from the mint's page to each address: a key only ever shows what was paid to its own address.
Fixed
- Looking at a zap's link no longer sends its secret to the mint; it only goes out when you claim it.
- A claim that never reached the mint is tried again, instead of ending as failed.
- A refused payment says why: an invoice of your own mint, one already used, or else the mint's own words. A bare invoice whose payment failed no longer offers "Try again", which a mint always refuses.
- After a restore, new payments to your address were only found once its name was entered again.
- A payment, a move or a combine of more than 100 zaps was refused by the mint. They now go through 10 at a time.
- Adding a mint finds the bitcoin you already have there, as a restore does, and payments to your addresses there keep arriving.
