Re: Launch of BitPay, worlds first smartphone-wallet for bitcoins
... the worlds first working smartphone application for sending and receiving bitcoins ...
Not the first smartphone app!Forum user doublec ported bitcoind to the Nokia N900 smartphone, and on December 7 2010 we exchanged coins phone-to-phone.
Ok, thanks for reminding. I changed now to ewallet application then
There is hardcoded wallet in the source code 
Code:
24 //FIXME
25 this.accountVector.add(new BitPayAccount("My Account_1", "174MgqAd2NqnwAcpajCQBo3AhwaEQDCUT1", "https://www.instawallet.org/w/9ODM4oWAiq9oXE4Ji6qTsg"));
26 this.account = this.accountVector.get(0);
25 this.accountVector.add(new BitPayAccount("My Account_1", "174MgqAd2NqnwAcpajCQBo3AhwaEQDCUT1", "https://www.instawallet.org/w/9ODM4oWAiq9oXE4Ji6qTsg"));
26 this.account = this.accountVector.get(0);
Sorry, this is a little embarrasing. To our defence, accountVector is not used, so nothing to worry about.
Also, the program keeps force closing on me right after the barcode scanner snaps the QR code. I made a QR code in the exact same format in an attempt to test it and the program just force closes. Still, I like the idea, it's a great interface, and as soon as you allow for a text box to type/paste addresses, and have an in-client address book, (and of course, get it working for me!), I will be ecstatic. This is what will allow bitcoin to flourish.
Edit: I'm using a rooted Droid 1 with UD 2.5
I have no idea what is wrong then?
I just downloaded the version in the Android Market. I realize this is a very early release, but there are a few features that would make it a lot more convenient:
- copy/paste addresses (!)
- an address book
- allow me to see the address of my Instawallet, so I can access my money if my phone is lost or destroyed (!!!)
I also vote for those ideas, except the last one. Your Instawallet address generated by the program is shown in the "credits" tab at the bottom.
Copy paste addresses, what do you mean with this? That there shall be a input field instead of textfield?
Addressbook would indeed be nice!
