I just tried chromes extension "https everywhere". It doesn't switch to https for blockchain.info.
What you need is not https everywhere, but HTTPS FINDER
I can't seem to find this for chrome.
I created a new project called Bitty,you can find more about it on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitty-the-bitcoin-debit-card-252913.
Maybe you'll add Bitty support, like sending Bitcoin into Bitty on My Wallet and adding bitty into My Wallet account.
For any questions,contact me at [email protected].

horror story.
created an address from the android app.
copypasted that address to an email.
had 200 coins sent to the addy.
address disappears from wallet.
Never have coins sent to an address before you get a wallet backup email.created an address from the android app.

Although such suggestions make sense especially for large sums like that, everything the app can possibly do to avoid such mishaps should be done.

What we need is admins switching HTTPS by default so newbies dont get phised.

Christ that's unbelievable. Just like bitcoind's initial unencrypted wallets, I don't understand how devs can be so dumb / shortsighted. This is people's money and savings you're fucking with guys.
it remains to be seen what exactly happened.
EDIT: maybe someone who's using the android app can try to reproduce what happened with the iOS app back then:
ok, I came up with a better reproduction of above-mentioned problem:
I really love this client and I hope piuk can do something to fix this. Here are some ideas:
- start blockchain client on phone, have it sync
- go to settings, turn on airplane mode
- generate a new address (you will get at least 2 sync errors, yet address is generated)
- write down the firstbits of that address
- open your web-browser on your pc and go to the wallet corresponding to your iOS wallet
- generate an new address
- on your iOS device, turn off airplane mode
- switch to blockchain client wait for sync and watch your address disappear
- look for that address in your online wallet, you will not find it.
I really love this client and I hope piuk can do something to fix this. Here are some ideas:
- at least mark addresses that are not synced to server clearly as "non-synced", as the online wallet does
- display a big fat warning before showing the qr-code of an un-synced address
- to mitigate this problem, maybe pre-generate some addresses and hide them. Instead of generating a new address, un-hide one from this pool and refill the pool

damn!
some key syncing problem? Have you been offline when you generated the key?
Is it similar to the problem I had a while back with the blockchain iOS wallet?
guys, be careful.
When the device is offline and you generate a new address, this address will most likely be lost. The app doesn't store it locally. Neither does it sync the address to the server later, when network comes back.
I tried several times and this truly is the case.
see my post here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.841810
see post(s) above that one for an answer from piuk.

The app shouldn't even display the address to a key that hasn't been synced to server?
Piuk please solve this if it is like I suspect. It's not hard to solve, is it? At least display a warning: "key to this address not synced to server!".
Consider using Firefox's plugin HTTPS finder. It automatically checks if the website supports HTTPS and enforces it,
I just tried chromes extension "https everywhere". It doesn't switch to https for blockchain.info.

Love your site. Thank you!
A suggestion for a new chart:
My Wallet Number of Active Users
Definition:
The number of my wallet users who sent or received BTCitcoin in the past week.
This will give a much clearer picture of changes in usage on an aggregate basis.
Thank you in advance for considering it.
