Not really - Alby Go is just an interface for your lightning node/wallet that supports NWC like Alby Hub (can be installed on Umbrel or start9), coinos, Lifpay
I meant as an Uncle Jim. If I set my wife up on her own alby go, she couldn't use it for zaps?
Yes, you can use Uncle Jim* in Primal via NWC.
You can also use the same (sub)wallet in your Alby Go.
*It's Uncle Jim from Alby Hub
You can use the friends & family app inside Alby Hub to give her a subaccount that she can scan the QR code from a Nostr app and start zapping. Soon we will generate lightning addresses for subaccounts which will make this super easy.
