On Android, generate your Nostr keys, keep your nsec safe… and #Amber will be the last app you’ll ever need to paste it into.

It’s a well made application - I just wish there was an iOS version.

Good advice.

Is #Amber on play store yet?

Use zapstore.dev

Wouldn't that require us to relax app sideloading restriction on Android? πŸ€”

No, because they are all verified and open source apps, and if there is a suspicious app, you can have it checked by Google's installation system.

Is this true? I don't need to relax the safety setting that prevents installations using APKs?

Even nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhs79prlk is distributed as APK right?

Zapstore will ask you for permission to install apps, once

With the generating of keys, do we have a cold-card-esc way of doing that for nostr? Or we just trust the web app to make them for us? Like is there an offline way to generate nsec?

Yes.

No.

Yes.

nstart.me

Okay so I went there and it's literally a third party making a key for me. So no, yes, no?

Use on Linux or MacOS offline this terminal command:

openssl rand -hex 32

why does #amber need network access?
