Blitz Wallet v0.4.1-beta: The Efficiency Update
Blitz is a self-custodial Bitcoin Lightning, Liquid, and ecash wallet built using the Breez SDK, Greenlight, Liquid Wallet Kit, and Boltz. Available on iOS and Android.
"We’re excited to bring you a new Blitz Wallet update that enhances performance and improves usability. Our mission is to make Blitz Wallet the simplest wallet ever, and this update reflects that commitment," announced the project.
- Android users can download the APK on GitHub or Zapstore. iOS and Play Store versions will be available after they get approved.
What's new
- Fiat symbol display. Instead of showing fiat currency as text (USD, EUR etc.), the app now displays the currency symbol (e.g. $) in the appropriate position.
- Optimized global contexts. Reduced unnecessary page re-renders to improve performance and decrease screen loading delays.
- Improved connection to node to reduce the initial connection time for faster loading time.
- Transaction sorting using a max-heap sorting algorithm for lower memory usage.

- Send Max button fix. The logic for calculating the maximum Liquid to Lightning swap amount via the Send Max option has been improved.
- Authentication update. Removed dependency on Firebase App Check, ensuring better compatibility with Huawei devices.
