Guys, seriously, command line wallet isn't as tedious as you think. Everybody can use it, there are hundreds of tutorials - it's just a few commands to learn. The only annoying part is that you have to download the whole blockchain and keep it synced. I think for most Electroneum users the best solution would be desktop lite client.

I use the cli wallet and I like it. The problem is not that you have to download the whole blockchain but that after you did that, keeping in sync is very slow even if you have a fast internet line and a fast CPU. If I am only few days behind I have to wait half a day to be in sync. Why? If the cli wallet is that slow I don't have hopes for the GUI wallet to be better.

Yes, syncing is a pain in the ass, that's why I've mentioned lite client, which doesn't require to have blockchain at all (like Electrum for Bitcoin).
