Good work. Thanks.
This version seems to be more stable.
The former one was not usable by me because it was crashing.

I'm proud to announce version 3.0 of Bitcoin Wallet.

The changes are massive:

  • Now requires Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) or later.
  • Export/import encrypted private key backups to/from mail or online storage.
  • Switch to new block store format, uses seriously less internal storage and doesn't grow.
  • New installs are instantly fully updated and useable.
  • Got rid of block chain snapshot in APK, installs updates much faster.
  • Lots of small improvements and bugfixes.
  • Based on bitcoinj 0.8.

If you want to take advantage of the new block store format, you need to reset your blockchain once (Options > Settings > Reset Blockchain).

Download/update from Google Play:

(update will become available during the next hours)

Thanks to everyone who contributed to Bitcoin Wallet and bitcoinj. Mike Hearn again invested lots of work to make mobile wallets work just as snappy as online wallets, but without the disadvantages of online wallets.
