"A great wallet for taking advantage of the iPhone's hardware security"

4/5

What do you like best about Edge?

My expectations for a bitcoin wallet are for it to provide a secure way to store my Bitcoin, and make it easy to both send and receive bitcoin. Airbitz uses on-iPhone storage for my wallet so I know it is secure. It also takes advantage of the iPhone camera for scanning QR codes for both sending and receiving. FaceID is a great way to unlock my wallet as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Edge?

The UI does not follow common iPhone design patterns or conventions. Getting up to speed with the app and general usage does have some friction because of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Edge:

I would highly recommend this wallet for anyone looking for a secure, mobile wallet.

No security codes to remember, since it uses FaceID. Apps on nearly any other platform run the risk of malicious applications stealing the wallet. Using an iPhone wallet mitigates that risk.

I would not recommend this wallet if you risk your device being lost, or seized, since the coins are stored locally. If that is the case, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Edge solving and how is that benefiting you?

I needed a secure wallet, not in the cloud, in a place that I could trust. Due to Apple's sandboxing and iOS security, Airbitz has mitigated the risk of my coins being stolen by a cloud provider or malicious application. The security has no negative effect on ease-of-use.
