I downloaded the android app because of how good the new design looked, but it was just one problem after another. The feed wasn't loading right, it wasn't pulling in my profile properly, and the wallet kept rejecting my NWC credentials despite the fact that the exact same connect string works fine everywhere else. It was just a struggle, and I ultimately gave up. I'll try it again in the future once the kinks are worked out, but based on my experience, and conversations with others, it's got a ways to go before it's really ready for production use.
Its okay with that, i’m just asking because i didnt see your feedback anywhere else. If you are using Amber, they changed some specs requirements thats why it was not working however now its working properly. We are sorry for any inconvenience, however, just providing critical feedback is good for us rather than hearing something like this. Thats all.
I am using Amber, so perhaps that's responsible for some of my issues although I don't think that would be the cause of the wallet issue. I'll give it another try. As I said, I was excited to try it because of how good the redesign looks. And I've been looking for a good home for long-form articles.
the Amber issue has already been fixed along what is related to ot. It would really be nice if you could inform us via DMs of any issue you are facing and we are ready to fix. We are testing in both emulators and real devices, however we dont know which version of amber everyone is installing along other things. Sorry again for any inconvenience.
No apologies necessary. These are the realities of active development. I'm downloading the app again now. Is there a reason why you don't make the mobile apps available for download through your github repo? I hate using the Play Store, and I'm pretty sure most Nostr users would prefer to go straight to the source rather than deal with Google and Apple app stores. I use Obtainium for pretty much everything, and would prefer to download and update through your development repo. Just a thought.
We are working on that and trying to get it ready for both obtainium and zap.store
I just loaded the Android app and it's 100% better than it was the other day. Everything loaded properly and it looks great. I'll touch base with you again after I've had a chance to use it more. And I'll try the wallet thing again, too. 👍
Thanks much appreciated 🙏
The wallet still doesn't work. I get a, "Invalid pairing secret" error when I try pasting my NWC connect string.
your NWC is alby NWC or which one ?
No, I use Minibits. It uses standard NWC.
yep thats why, we are currently only supporting alby nwc connection thats why you coupdnt lol, we figured that out just yesterday. I will DM you when it is implemented. u can created a wallet and use it temporary if you want from within the app itself or use external wallets for that 🙏
I linked my Breez wallet in the meantime. I'll try NWC again once you get it worked out.

May i know the NWC you were trying to use is Alby nwc or another provider ?
I use Minibits Wallet. After it kept rejecting my connect string, I plugged the same credentials into Amethyst and Primal and it worked without any issues.
