 Update: 
Tried again to activate the in-app Primal wallet on iOS using a pseudonym instead of my real personal info and got this email in response. So, does this mean Primal iOS can't be used for zapping unless you genuinely KYC yourself? https://i.nostrimg.com/13827ba9d79cc356b33ab8ee44da28a3c5db6f2934df11ee796f4e9c6a6342e3/file.jpeg  nostr:note1rj8sk6v3c95amp5gsv22f42m83fn8sgezfwrn7tavcllylx5u8fqkrvwc5 
 Fuck that 💩 
 that's a big yikes. They might as well just require you to have a strike account and link your npub to it. 
 Maybe try some fake name like John Doe 
 Yea I tried a couple more times with common names like that and got the same thing. I'll try again later but that's not encouraging 😂 
 It’s not working for me even with KYC info entered. 
 Ok, interesting to know. Maybe just some issues with their activation process. I'll try again later. 🤙 
 I don’t understand what you are talking about? I am on an iPhone and there was no  information needed.
The wallet is great. Is this a geolocation thing? 
 When did you sign up? I believe this may have changed with the last update. 
 I‘m new to nostr and primal and just entered a fantasy name. Worked for me. 
 lol I am so confused 😂 I continue to try and keep getting the same email saying they're "unable" to activate it 🥲
