I think it is very dangerous.

For now, it is. The risk is high since we're at the early stage of this technology. Anything can happen not just the mobile wallet, but as well as other things (even your cold wallet in the safest bank you know). Luckily, people are constantly looking for ways on how to improve things. Like other users commented above -- just wait for it. Wink

I'm still using mobile wallets but with not so high amounts. I have altcoins on held with my mobile wallet and didn't even used it for awhile but I have no problem with it. The case on mobile wallets is choose the most reputable and store only coins there that you afford to lose. It's best for everyone to have his/her hardware wallet which has a better security than mobile wallets.

I had been using mobile wallet since last year. Still couldn't transfer to ledger wallet and trezzor wallet. Hardware wallet is the best to secure your favorite coin, all can't afford this value. If your private key is in secure place, I don't believe that mobile wallet is very dangerous.

You should start saving and avail nano s or trezor for your own safety.

I have never used mobile wallets till the moment when MEW team have released their mobile app. It is very user friendly and is almost identical to the browser wallet. So, you can make your transactions from everywhere and this is a great point. But I have no idea how secured this solution is.

I don't think that mobile wallets are not safe it totally depends on your phone security if your smartphone is safe then your wallet is also safe. viruses more attack on pc than smartphone, I disagree with your arguments.

Actually one of my first crypto wallets was a mobile one, because I didn't know how to use a proper wallet that was a light client (SPV). I started out using stupid web wallets, then when I learnt I needed my own wallet, I tried mobile. But you're right, I believe it's not as secure, mainly because I don't trust my phone apps, is one thing, but also I'm just always afraid to lose my phone.

So now I stick to desktop SPV clients.

I mostly use mobile wallets and as far as I know, it's safe. Depending on how safe you you play along, will determine your safety. Every wallet can be at risk if the owner places it on a risk

I used mobile wallets. And I dont agree with you. I think Its more dangerous on pc compared to phone. Since pc are most prone to viruses compared to phones. And theres this 2fa verication already by google on your phone which is so hard to hacked by hackers so better activate it.

OK I think I get where you are coming from. But for the people who can't afford trezzor or ledger wallets, mobile wallet can still work for them if the Mobile wallet uses private key. It's advisable you use a wallet that you can control your private key. And make sure you write your private key down with pen and paper to be safe.

Now it is really dangerous to work with mobile wallets. You have to keep yourself safe. This will be decided in the future. When no one will use it, and most of them. We must wait. We are at the very beginning of new technologies.

Always will be dangerous.
Anything can happen to the storage, the mobile phone itself, the mobile network, compromise of the private key or the numeric phrase
