Yay or nay on this extra button to change currency units on the Amount Input component?

Yay

Yay

Yay, but I would leave the unit to the left always. No need for it to left and right.

Exactly please don't make that horrible UX symbol jump.

But sats doesn't make sense at the front

I think all on the right far away from the actual number inputted looks better

Honestly all of the currency units do not make sense on the left, but that’s how they always have been.

$100 = 100 Dollars

B1 = 1 Bitcoin

Sat 100 = 100 sats. <- why would this be different?

Not everything has to make sense. UX trumps that and the users can

I would also leave the 3 lines below untouched it's strange that they reshuffle if I change the input currency

Oh. I didn’t even notice those. Yeah those jump a lot. Not sure if all three are even needed. It could be simpler.

You could use the sats symbol https://www.satsymbol.com/

not a fan

Yes please

Yay if that’s the only way to change it, if u can still tap underneath then there’s too many touch inputs. I like it though

Can we get the Bitcoin symbol instead of the dollar symbol ? But honestly it's good enough

Also keep the currency on the right hand side where “sats” is. Don’t put the dollar and bitcoin icons on the left, I think it’s cleaner that way

If we keep the units in the same spot there's no point in the new button

Imo button is good, remove all other touch input to change currency and keep all currency icons on the right, that way it’s simple, you know you need to tap that to change it, and you won’t tap it accidentally(I actually do that a lot atm)

Yay, but:

1. Let us know when was the exchange rate successfully fetched (last hour? last day?).

2. No need for the input to alllow entering whole bitcoins. Nobody transfers whole bitcoins in lightning payments, nor 0.1 BTC. Sats are the standard.

Yay

Nay

The three lines under the input where only one of them seem to matter at one time seems a little confusing.

Maybe just make it 1 line that replaces itself as you cycle through the options?

It looks like the units are still buttons, I think that's also confusing. Just have the one way to toggle the currency.

Also, this isn't something I see on wallets these days, but it would be cool to be able to choose a different currency eg. By long pressing for example... Sometimes I am abroad or just dealing with a foreigner and need to use dollars or euros instead of pounds for certain transactions.

Take two

Going to try to swap out the dollar icon for a Bitcoin icon on the button tomorrow

🔥

I have an idea, I don’t know how good it will look, but if you wanna have dollars + btc on the left and sats on the right you could make it so the number inputted doesn’t shift to the left when sats are selected, basically start the textbox a bit more to the right and use the empty space for the btc/dollar icon. Could be shit but maybe play around with it!

Yay.

The location is unexpected. What about putting it to the left of the input box?

Tried it, no good

Toggle the Icon on right to a Bitcoin in circle icon. This will reinforce which currency one’s currently in.

Absolutely yes!
