However this doesn't work with Bech32 addresses - the addresses don't match the electrum wallet.

So does anybody now how to get the Bech32 addresses working?
Yeah... there seems to be an extra "script type" value in the derivation path...

so instead of: m / purpose' / coin_type' / account' / change / address_index
it is now: m / purpose' / coin_type' / account' / script_type' / change / address_index

so the derivation path isn't m/84'/0'/0'/0/0... but m/84'/0'/0'/0'/0/0 Roll Eyes

To make the modified Ian Coleman page (ie. where you have already modified it to work with Electrum seeds) generate the matching bech32 addresses/privkeys... you need to:

1. Enter Electrum Seed
2. Click on "BIP141" tab
3. Set "BIP32 Derivation path" to: m/0'/0
4. Set "Script Semantics" to: "P2WPKH"

The addresses should display at the bottom... path should show as: m/0'/0/x
