No  I do not use it too watch, I also use it to pay things with because with an online wallet this is done pretty easy.
I think that its also the question how do you really use to watch ??

I have been using blockchain.info mobile wallet for watch only paper wallets for years now, is anyone else doing the same?
Wait,how did you make a watch only wallet out of blockchain.info ? Did you download the private keys and printed it on paper ? Dude,the coins are still on the online wallet,very prone to all sort of attacks.Better download a desktop offline wallet.

Indeed you can than better just download an offline wallet because this would just not be smart to do at all.
I think you are than giving yourself more work than normally.
I also think that an offline wallet is better, take a paper wallet as a example its a safe way and also a very good way to store your bitcoins these days.
I really think that offline wallets are always better than online but online are just easy to manage.

I am using set of addresses as watch only wallets but in Electrum wallet. By having this watch only facility I am able to track my cold storage address effectively.

Before this I had habits of tracking my cold storage address through block explorers, summing up balances and having outline on how much I am earning through signature campaign, faucets and trading becoming easy and convenient by having Electrum's watch only feature.

I'm using blockchain.info. What the problem with it?

The problem is: any online service can be hacked and well a inside job.
TRUST NO ONE, that's the problem.

I don't use Blokchain as a wallet. I'm it using to check and follow transactions, searching information about addresses and wallet ballances.

I also do this, I only use it for very small transactions and for things that I can look up with it, its pretty nice.
The blockchain is working very well and that you can search to transactions makes it nice and easy.

I used blockchain.info for it's wallet and also the mobile version. But now I am have changed to coinbase. The new blockchain wallet takes year to develop and at this moment you can't sign or do anything (even sent from 1 specific address) from your new address.

Such a shame.
i imported my wallet to new version, and its really different than oldest version there are many changes out there, also you cant generate many address like oldest did, and your address will change for every transaction in order to make your transaction is anonymous, i might agree with this one, however im still using it the alternaive i used xapo for storing my spendable amount.

I don't understood this, it's safe?
You have a papper wallet and use the key on blockchain.info to check yours funds? Is it?

no i have paper wallets offline, and i use blockchain.info wallet to watch my paperwallet, blockchain has no access to the funds

Oh, now I get it... You don't login in your account, nice!
But... What's the point to watch your paperwallet? It someone stolen, you will have nothing to do about it...

Actually i use their web wallet for day to day transaction but i love their mobile wallet too to pay in go like scanning bitcoin address when i have to pay from laptop screen with mobile wallet. Almost all addresses linked to my wallet are for receive and send but one or two of those addresses are my paper wallet watch only addresses.

I'm not. I use blockchain.info as wallet, just it. sometimes I just watch the transaction for a moment because I don't have that much time just to wacth something. besides, I only open my wallet on phone but not on its mobile application.

I use blockchain.info only as explorer since it has a very attractive UI. However, due to the various bugs and wrong displayed information from time to time, I semi switched to blockr.io as I find it more reliable.

No, I only rarely use blockchain.info because they tend to mine all userdata they can get their hands on. In the past I primarily used blockexplorer.com, because it had a simplistic user interface that was fast and ran without Javascript. But since this has changed I now switched over to the blockchain explorer of bitinfocharts.com - sadly also requiring script.

If anybody knows a good blockexplorer that runs fast and without Javascript, please let me know. I'm really getting sick of all sites using Javascript (and even worse various google services) to display simple information. It's slowing down everything and adds security holes.

ya.ya.yo!
