★★★★★
Great app with focus on shielded transactions. If you want a hot wallet for your ZEC, use this!
★★★★★
No problems. Receive shielded Cash and you shield it in your wallet. Everyone you transact with should be using shielded addresses.
★★★★★
Better than Unstoppable for zcash blockchain syncing. Good but slow. First loading of wallet takes many hours to first sync and scan, subsequent opening of the app provides faster load times for the wallet but still 3–5 minutes. Not for fast trades but safe and secure if a little slow!
★★☆☆☆
The app doesn't work. Used it once for the NFT mint. Since then, I've reinstalled and recovered from seed. After ~12hr of syncing I finally see transaction history but don't have access to funds. Wallet perpetually syncs & upon reaching 100% it'll restart at slightly higher % then the last re-sync. Switch servers and start all over again. Seems like a good way to burn ZEC supply. I love the idea of ZEC but take this off z.cash website.
★★☆☆☆
Unable to sync old wallet, the process is very slow and is lost when interrupted (e.g. by phone putting the app to background). Looking at the last update this project seems dead. Unfortunately as is my money in the wallet.
★★☆☆☆
Storing 8.2 Gigabytes on my Sony Phone for your App is crazy as is the HUGE amount of Time taken from installation via the Official Google Play Store. Despite the above once installation has been done the app runs very well. Perhaps the next update will include clearing the excess 8.2gb of data and hold just a tiny part? Will update my review accordingly 29th August 2023 Device Sony S9+ Android 12
★★☆☆☆
Synchronization speed is abysmal. It took 12.5 hours to restore a wallet.
