All screenshots are from the app 🤦🏻♂️
Apple App Store has rejected v0.4.2. I have to add more screenshots that sufficiently show the actual app in use.
v0.4.2 is now in review.
This update adds settings options to view charging session history and on-chain wallet balance. When viewing session history there is also the option to download the session payments as a PDF invoice. The on-chain wallet balance view, available in Advanced settings, show the current on-chain balance of the embedded LND node. This is in case channels have been forced closed and transferred to the on-chain wallet. If there is an on-chain balance, this balance can be sent to another bitcoin address.
Still waiting on LNURL-auth integration into Breez SDK before I will start implementing it as the default node option. Although more complicated to maintain, I’ll also have to support an LND embedded node.
Next on the big ticket feature list then would be #[0] integration.Adding it as a layer into our map and highlighting nearby merchants when charging.
🎶 Zappin makes me feel good 🎶
Github down?
Time to open some channels
I have to look at this again. I see no rational reason why you should need Google Services to write NFC. But you never know with Google. Do other wallets write to NFC without Google Services?
Not short, but maybe: autonomous
This week in Satimoto.
We wrapped up the second PR to breez-sdk to finish off binding all Breez SDK functions for React Native. Their React Native bindings will be published as a module on non at some point.
In the next client release we’ll have charging session histories available in the app, including PDF invoice downloads.
We published the IONITY operator’s charge points, which are now available. IONITY is known to have good coverage across Europe, mainly on highways.
We are still pre-testing charge point operator integration with Allego and Wenea in Spain. Next month we will be pre-testing a new charge point operator in Italy.
Nice. This adds Pickhardt Payment probabilities to pathfinding too right?
It does make sense. I could keep LND for now, have Greenlight as the default node for new users, then offer a way to migrate LND node users to Greenlight later.
Have to decide if we’re going to support migration from device hosted LND node to Breez SDK/Greenlight or release a new app only supporting Breez SDK.
I want to support in the future multiple options to connect to user nodes too, using LNC, LDK etc. So architecturally I want to go in this direction, with Greenlight being to noob/no-node option.
Great news! I wanted to look at it for reference while it was offline. Looked the github repo instead.
…and you will get bolt12 too as Blockstream Greenlight runs on CLN.
I think the Breez SDK will bring with it a big swing towards non-custodial. It’s really simple to integrate it as a developer. Gives the user a non-custodial virtual node on Greenlight, Inbound liquidity with LSP services and ability to share node access to multiple apps on the same device.
