 I've done it by: 

- app switching for zap sending
- NWC from nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rgpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59u4kl3vp for send/receive
- receiving to nostr:nprofile1qqst4qyeqenw7zm0fwjsty68h6cnys5jre2xd8ngqpjv5a2j26s78fsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp049c5ke, Minibits, or npub.cash while sending from my nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfcpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq5xamn8ghj7dnvv45xs7tywde8g6rpvakkjuekw46nvar4vdhxgan6wumkxatzwpckk6rk0puhjdm2da5k7ce5x4kkkumjx3jkzepwdahxjmmwqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wd9hxvmckqw0xz NWC using my own node 

Everybody seems to really like nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgjwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxqgnwaehxw309aex2mrp09skymr99ehhyecusqvd6 Hub for this, also, but I haven't tried it yet. All these seem to work. Just have to pick your favorite flavor. 
 Oh, i need to look at npub.cash 
 Do i need a minibits wallet or similar to use npub.cash? 
 It will let you receive zaps, but you'll still need to send from somewhere else, unless something has changed recently. Minibits has a similar function for receiving because you get an address to put in your profile. Mine is set up this way. It also supports NWC, so it's kind of a 1 stop shop. It's all custodial ecash, though. Make sure you're okay with that. Otherwise look at Start9 or Alby Hub. 
 Thanks for the reply. 
 So i was playing a little bit with minibits, using nwc.  It seems to be delayed in showing transactions.  I came back later and they showed up.  
 I believe you have to open the app to fully receive the transaction. Could be wrong. I don't know what the time limit is, if any. I haven't lost anything yet. On sending, sometimes Amethyst doesn't show the zap completing, but it's there on refresh. Clearing cache usually makes weirdness like that go away for me. Basically, I think it's all okay and normal, though.  
 Thank you, i might go with that setup, just for simplicity.   You've been very helpful.😊 
 No problem, thanks for the zap! I have the node and all that, but I do like the simple zap setup. I like limiting the funds available to NWC, also. That's another that Alby Hub might solve. I need to fire that up just to have some experience with it.
