Comments on Electrum Bitcoin Wallet for Android

★★★★☆ r karz · Jan 19, 2026

Solid Bitcoin wallet with a long development history. But if you want easy access to lightning, Phoenix, Zeus, and bull wallet are all better choices and also self-custody.

★★★★★ River France · Jan 27, 2025

Superb. I would like to see the paths it uses to derive, I intended to emulate original Bitcoin derivatives. M'/0'/0/. This seems to derive at m/44'/0'/0'/0

★★★★☆ Masouma · Aug 20, 2025

Great wallet. Gives you all the freedom and tools you need. The only problem I found is that when the "allow screenshots" option is turned off it doesn't allow screenshots of seed phrases, but you can still take screenshots of private keys. Would be great if it is resolved in the next update

★★★★★ Desmond Bennett · Jan 31, 2025

This is a very simple wallet that I have been using for years. It does not have many features like more modern wallets, but it does a very good job with its basic features.

★★★★★ Igor · Mar 13, 2025

Works like a charm with private keys, saves a lot of time, as you don't need to wait full Bitcoin Core wallet to fully sync. 10/10 ! GREAT

★★★★★ Ala Kur · Oct 27, 2025

Absolutely brilliant app! Best on the market if you want security and privacy and one you can store on your (any) device and offline! Please don't pay attention to all these poor reviews as these people are beginners who want everything on a silver platter and won't be happy until the app does the work for them while they're asleep! It takes a short while to learn, but when you have, it blows all competition out of the water! Electrum is safe, smooth & rapid! Highly recommended!

I had funds send to my wallet, but I don't know how this wallet stuff works, so something went wrong now I don't see anything and there are no instructions or anything to assist, and it's almost R4000, so I am not happy with this app
