HODL Wallet : Bitcoin Wallet 4+

Confuzzled

Hi there! I am a relatively new miner and I have been using Coinbase for a while now. I decided to switch to HODL for a number of reasons. I do have a few questions:

Where do I view my Wallet address?
Where can I find my public and private key?
( digital signature )

Developer Response ,

Thanks for trying out HODL Wallet. You can access your bitcoin address by selecting the receive button. When you create a new wallet a Backup Recovery Key which are 12 unique words is generated. These 12 words are equal to all the private and public keys your wallet will ever store. This means you don't have to worry about anything other than storing those 12 words safetly and you will always have access to your bitcoin.

You can find additional information and knowledge by clicking on the question mark in the top right corner of most of the app screens. Alternatively you can select Menu and access the Knowledge Base from there. You can also find more guides at www.hodlwallet.co

Thanks again for using HODL Wallet. If for whatever reason this didn't answer your question don't hesitate to reach us at support@hodlwallet.co

One sided issues

At first it was the issues that you’d open the app and it would immediately crash. That got fixed but now the newest issue seems to be that you can’t seem to export the contents of your wallet to anywhere else. I went to transfer my small amount of bitcoin from this to another venue pre 2024 halving and it stated that it would take 1-3 days. First time I tried, it failed. Tried again and it eventually gave me the notification after 1-2 days saying it had failed or had been rejected and the FAQ said I may need to sync with the blockchain (to the tune of 1-3hrs). Tried to do this repeatedly but it stops syncing after a certain amount of time away from the app but with it still running in the background. Finally had the opportunity to sit with the app open for that long to complete. Ending up taking about 3 hrs and 45 minutes only for it to reach today’s date and then the app crashed once it finished syncing. Tried to initiate the sync again to see if it had saved at all during its progress and nope, it started at the same date back in 2021 again. Thanks for wasting my time and I can only assume, stealing my money.

Easy to use

Wallet took a few seconds to download. I didn’t need to set up an account. All I had to do was write down my 12 words and I was set up ready to go. Easiest bitcoin wallet I’ve ever used. Simple is better!
