đ„đ„đ„ #Alby Releases Alby Go, A Mobile App For Self-Custodial #bitcoinâïž Lightning Payments
Alby has launched Alby Go, a mobile app now available for iOS and Android, enabling users to make self-custodial payments through their Lightning node.
The app allows users to connect to various Lightning nodes and wallets, including Alby Hub, Umbrel, Start9, LifPay, and CoinOS, making self-custodial Lightning payments simple and accessible. Alby Go integrates most seamlessly with Alby Hub, an open-source wallet designed to make Lightning nodes easy to access from multiple devices. Additionally, the app offers a user-friendly interface for Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC)-enabled Lightning wallets.
âAlby Go is the next step in making Bitcoin accessible everywhere, now bringing it directly to users' pockets,â said Alby co-founder #MichaelBumann in a press release. âBy using the NWC messaging protocol, we enable smooth access to multiple nodes and wallets within a lightweight app.â
Key features of Alby Go include a contact list for storing frequently used Lightning addresses, quick currency conversion, and dark/light theme options.
Currently in version 1.5, Alby encourages users to share feedback for further improvements. The app is open-source, inviting reviews and contributions from the community.
