Nostr Web Client

New wallet backup and recovery option in Minibits has just dropped:

You can now export wallet backup that can include ecash, mints, contacts and recent transactions and than import it into another device / after reinstall.

Recovery from seed is sometimes tricky and if you do not deal with outright device loss or full wallet brick, this might become a go-to option how to move Minibits to new device.

Use with few sats only until battle tested. Should bring less headaches for us all then! Released as 0.1.9-beta.18

Awesome news!

How do you import the text copied from the backup?

Was looking into it but there is only the seed import in recovery unless I missed something. Did I?

I will suggest instead of copy is saving a text file encrypted with the nsec signature (make the user sign it)

and the recovery the same, an import of the text file.

Awesome wallet, this wallet is my favorite one so far for #Nostr, you guys are doing an awesome job, keep it up!

Thank you for your suggestions!

Based on early feedback, there is one gotcha:

If you reinstall and enter recovery, you have no chance to get the latest over the air update with the functionality...

Workaround is to not do reinstall but factory reset from developer options - reser keeps the latest version running.

Will this allow me to use the same wallet on 2 devices simultaneously?

Amazing wallet, BTW. I love it.

Would totally love a version written in a native language (java, etc).
