It's here fellow Pivians and Steemians!

Our major update to our Android mobile wallet is now available in the Google Play Store.

What's new?

  • Multi-fiat currency support.
  • Payment Request added.
  • zc_spend transactions parsing + transaction icon.
  • Recover Mnemonic phrase screen autocompletion + loading in background.
  • Default option for trusted nodes selection screen.
  • Initialize wallet from recover screen issue fixed.
  • Minor bugs fixed.

Let's take a look at a few new features:

Payment Request Added

You are now able to request a payment amount and a QR code will be generated. When scanned by the customer it will automatically input your address and the amount in PIVX owed to you. This allows much smoother and quicker transactions and therefore this makes it easier for merchants who want to accept PIVX and charge their clients the correct amount in their local currency.

What does this mean for merchants accepting PIVX?

Receiving PIVX in exchange for goods and services is now easier than ever. Simply input the transaction information (address, the amount owed, and product description) and the mobile wallet will create a QR code for you. The payee simply has to scan the code, review the information and confirm!

Multi-Fiat Currency Support

You are now able to view the conversion rate of your PIVX to any Fiat currency.

What does this mean for merchants accepting PIVX:

Having a Fiat conversion built in, it is now simple to convert the amount owed into PIV. You can now simply select the amount owed in your country’s currency, and voila! You now have a matching PIV amount to bill!

zPIV Transaction Recognition

The wallet can now recognize PIVX received from a zPIV transaction and will credit recipients accordingly to their PIVX balance.

Mnemonic Phrase Auto-Complete

The wallet now includes Mnemonic Phrase Auto-Complete. This will allow you to recover your wallet via Mnemonic phrase easier, and faster.

Synchronization Message Added to Homescreen

You will now see an out-of-sync message on the app’s home screen when the mobile wallet is not in-sync. Please allow for the wallet update to fully process before sending or receiving any PIV.
