RaiBlocks has been rebranded to Nano!
Yeah this will probably lead to a nice pump!Re: Does Breadwallet store scanned priv keys that you decided not to sweep?
The app itself is quite careful to wipe private key data from memory as soon as it's no longer being used, however there may be internal memory caches or logs in the camera system or coreImage qr scanning or what not. If you did a factory reset of the device, it's almost certainly not a concern.
So i created an address at bitaddress and wanted to make sure the privkey would work before i sent any larger amounts of bitcoin to it so i scanned it with bread wallet but did not sweep funds. so my question is does that ios device or does the breadwallet app on the device store that somewhere or will it be forgotten about because i didn't sweep the funds ?
i no longer have the device thats why i am asking.

Re: [ANN] breadwallet, first bitcoin network client for iOS, first BIP32 SPV client
Also we want to help the bitcoin community move to bits from full btc, to help grow bitcoin adoption. Large parts of the world population can't deal with arbitrary precision decimal numbers, and the sooner we switch the less painful the switch will be.
I've been on Bitcoin for quite some time and I still get confused with the bits terminology, full Bitcoin just seems so much easier to understand... But I guess that's only me
1,000,000 bits = 1 btc
You're definitely not the only one, we get a lot of complaints about this. People hate changing from what they are already used to. This is why it's so important to make the switch now while bitcoin is still small. The more it grows the more painful it will be to switch the standard denomination.
Re: [ANN] breadwallet, first bitcoin network client for iOS, first BIP32 SPV client
is there a possibility to use bip44 for acchount organzition and change the format of bitcoins? (to default instead of bitcents)
We use the default bip32 path (m/0H/0 and m/0H/1)

Re: [ANN] breadwallet, first bitcoin network client for iOS, first BIP32 SPV client
is there any plans to allow breadwallet to connect to a trusted peer? for example can i get it to only connect to my node at home?
At the moment you have to build the app yourself to do that, but we may enable it through a bread: url request (with user authorization to avoid an attacker setting it)

Hi,
Is this the correct thread for asking about issues with the Android version of Breadwallet? There was another thread announcing the arrival of Breadwallet on the Play Store... but the OP doesn't seem to be reading it, so I'm not sure if it is actively monitored.
I've run into a couple of issues and was just wanting to know where I should send my concerns?

This is definitely the correct thread, as it is the main thread for the app...
The dev comes here regularly, but lately he's been asking to send bug reports or similar to support [at] breadwallet.com
I'd post here and send an email if I was you.
For support you can contact support@breadwallet.com, or if you're pretty sure it's an app issue, we use github issue tracking. https://github.com/breadwallet/breadwallet-android/issues
Re: breadwallet is now available for Android M! Download now on Google Play
Like I said, I'm fairly sure that breadwallet isn't against Google Keyboard as such, but it is simply because on my ROM (which isn't a nexus factory rom like I'm assuming you're running on your Nexus6P), the "system default" keyboard is AOSP... NOT Google.
I had to download Google Keyboard from the play store and install it. So Breadwallet deems this to be a "Bad Thig" and refuses to work with it... it wouldn't matter if I was using Flexy or Swype or anything other addon keyboard.
Android already gives you warnings that addon keyboards can steal your data etc... and as long as a person is sensible about what they're doing, and trust the company that coded the keyboard, I don't see why Breadwallet should have an issue with it.

It may be a bug. It should only disallow custom keyboards when typing in your recovery phrase, since obviously this is extremely security critical and you don't want your keyboard remembering what you type and adding it to auto-complete or sending it to a cloud service for improve typing prediction. O.o You should be able to use any keyboard you want any other time. If that's not the case, please report to support@breadwallet.com, or submit an issue to https://github.com/breadwallet/breadwallet-android/issues
Re: breadwallet is now available for Android M! Download now on Google Play
Having a rooted device doesn't mean any old app can just auto install and steal all your data/bitcoins... first of all it has to get on your device, then you have to run it... then you have to grant it root permissions...
HCP this is incorrect. If your device fails the boot verification check (any rooted device should fail this check), then your funds are vulnerable to any malware that modifies the OS. Without boot verification you don't have any way to detect if the OS gets modified.
Re: [ANN] breadwallet, first bitcoin network client for iOS, first BIP32 SPV client
Yeah, seems very convenient to IOS devices since android has many wallets to choose from. The specs are good, seems easy to use and user friendly. Now, another bitcoin wallet on IOS to choose from. Awesome app 
I like to think we're the original, since we've been one of the most popular since apple started letting bitcoin wallets in the app store, and the only one that isn't server-trusting.
Installing other apps won't give them access to you wallet, the OS enforces code signatures, so only apps signed by the same author can access keychain data created by that author's apps.
Breadwallet is open source and anyone is free to fork the code and make their own wallet, which is what Robert Genito of wall-of-coins did here. He integrated it with their exchange service. I know him personally and have no reason to think there's anything untoward here. He asked permission to use the code even though it's open source and he didn't have to.

Is this not a risky route to follow? What if someone used this code to mimic or spoof your wallet and then insert malicious code to steal people's private keys? This will taint the original Breadwallet's
reputation, if this was done to people. In any case, If you can vouch for him and you trust his integrity enough to put your own reputation on the line, it is surely legit. It takes a lot of time to build
trust, it takes one incident to destroy it.
I haven't reviewed his code changes so I can't vouch for it. I can only say that I've known him personally to be a nice guy.
As far as open source, the original Bitcoin code itself is open source, and runs on systems that dont enforce code signatures, so anyone can make a bad version that overwrites the original. This can't be done with mobile apps like breadwallet. If someone uses our name and logo to confuse people, we can report it for removal from app stores.
Make sure you have the latest app update. If the issue persists please contact support@breadwallet.com and we will help!
Hi. Im new to this space having only bought 1st BC about 10days ago. I went for the bread wallet as it had good right ups for the iPhone.
All good for the first 12 or so transactions. Feeling more confident I bought a few BitCoins. Then it happened. The transactions went through ....the $ amount and bitcoin equiv went through and show up in the wallet, BUT the balance of bitcoin didn't increase?
it remains at the balance of the previous transaction?
I tried a transaction just over the previous limit thinking it was a 'typo' glitch but it was refused.
Can anyone advise on how to correct and retrieve the wallet? I know I can reset but am worried that it will revert to the balance showing and not include the last coins bought.
TIA.

Re: [ANN] breadwallet, first bitcoin network client for iOS, first BIP32 SPV client
And finally, a nice wallet with a Watch app! Thanks you! The app is pretty interesting, seems to be well made just like the iOS one. I've seen an "early access" option on the update changelog, but I can't seem to see how to activate it...
The app is pretty interesting, seems to be well made just like the iOS one. I've seen an "early access" option on the update changelog, but I can't seem to see how to activate it...Since the legacy fincnial system is provincial and divided, we currently only show the early access program option when we have a service ready for beta testing that is available in your region. (determined by IP address) For instance, USD Bitcoin exchange. We will eventually have bitcoin based services available globally that are not dependent on the patchwork of legacy currencies and payment networks.
I Swipe and found the receive address. but when some amount is received in it, it gets changed every time.
Is there not only one address ?
The address changes for privacy, but you can re-use the same address over and over again.Is there not only one address ?
Your receive address changes whenever it gets used, but old addresses always work.
I have the breadwallet app on my iPod. I also have it on my iPhone. Now if I use the (iPod) recovery phrase on my iPhone's breadwallet app, will both apps work or is the phrase valid for just one app at any given time?
Your funds are stored on the bitcoin network. Your recovery phrase is your key to access those funds. You can make as many copies of that key on as many devices as you like and access the funds from any one of them. (This is also why it's important to keep your recovery phrase secret, and never type it into other less secure devices like a laptop, don't take a photo of it, don't send it in an email, etc. Write it down on paper and keep in a safe place.)
Im with stucked balance in the app. I try to restore and wipe it and rescan blockchain and still keep getting the unverified transaction again and again!!!
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't get an email alert for this thread for some reason. Make sure you have the latest version, then contact support@breadwallet.com if you're still having an issue.
I love this breadwallet app developed by Aaron Voisine.
I know that guy! He is my neighbor!

Although I dont use breadwallet, I think there is no way to export the private keys (correct me if wrong). I recommend Coin Pocket which allows you to export your private key in BIP38, protected by the password of your choice. Simple and reliable.
Breadwallet is "deterministic". You get a new address for every transaction. Your recovery phrase is how you export all your existing and future private keys. Just 12 words, even simpler than a bip38 or wif encoded single private key.
I like coinpocket, but it is a "server trusting" wallet. It relies on and trusts servers instead of connecting to the peer-to-peer bitcoin network like breadwallet.
Not to sure by what you mean "where is the addrress" could you explain abit more?
I don't use iOS but I guess the OP is trying to backup/export the private keys used by the wallet. This can be useful when the phone is lost or the Apps is no longer supported.
Your recovery phrase is where all your private keys come from. It is industry standard BIP39 with the default BIP32 wallet layout.
Breadwallet also connects directly to the bitcoin network. We have no servers, so no "support" is needed for the app to continue working.
If you use a desktop client, make sure you understand how to harden agaisnt malware. Desktop OSes don't have app sandboxing, enforced code signatures, or hardware encrypted key storage like iOS devices or dedicated hardware wallets.
So it means Ios wallets are better ?
iOS devices are secure-by-default, so they are better for people who do not have strong computer security knowledge. This is why we chose iOS as the first platform for breadwallet.
