Just want to say that the blockchain.info services kick ass. Definitely the best bitcoin related services out there (imho).



Yep, blockchain.info is hands down THE most secure and functional online wallet. I trust my coins with it entirely.
Agreed.  Infact I just switched back as my main storage as it is the easiest option with the greatest security for my needs.

Please provide more information on how to add a Bitcoin address to passbook.
Just open instawallet.org in Safari on an iOS 6 device.

Then click "add to passbook" button and it is that simple

You guys should put your money where your mouth is and stop supporting Bitcoin blocking Apple. Buy some Bitcoin loving Android phone.
Except then I would have an android phone.
Wich would be a good thing actually
Unfortunately in the head of those disciples the Apple religion is stronger than (Bitcoin) freedom.
So I can't have free choice and choose apple?  If I choose apple then I am a zelot?  The only true choice is android?  Doesn't sound much like free will to me.
No you got it wrong. If you choose apple, you also choose not to have a Bitcoin client. So you can choose between apple and Bitcoin. So don't complain once your choice was apple.

Apple and their walled garden system is the same as central banks and fiat. Looks great from a distance, has some (not so) hidden drawbacks. People got so used to fiat and to be governed by apple that they have a hard time to get into Bitcoin and free open source smartphones.

This topic is old, but I'm so confused by this... I have an iPad 3 and a iPhone 4, both running iOS6, neither is "jail broken", and both download and run the blockchain.info app/wallet with no problems at all.

I just downloaded it on my iphone 5 and it works great - not full screen but scans codes- send and receives just fine

You should check out http://instawallet.org, cause they allow you to add a bitcoin address to your passbook app, and it updates the balance automatically and it really cool.

Blockchain It works on my iPhone 4S. No jailbreak required, I got it from the App Store.

There were only two tricky parts:
 - the QR code you need to link to your blockchain.info account is under My Wallet> Account Settings > Devices on their website.
 - the Captcha image is very easy to read and type. Just ignore the little squiggles at the front of the ascii characters - only type what looks like letters/numbers.

I've already confirmed it allows money to pass into the wallet, and out. QR code functionality also work.

Is the wallet app still available on Apple's official app store and still fully functional (able to send and receive coins)? Can someone with an iPhone please confirm?

Is Apple changing its tune? Was (re)allowing the fully-functional app a mistake? Will Apple's mobile payment platform, Passport, due with iOS5 officially support Bitcoin?

There is a bet on this exact topic: http://betsofbitco.in/item?id=562

I outlived my lifetime membership:)
Seeing as this thread is already way off topic, I figured I'd throw in my two cents. I want a phone that works. I do not like that an arbitrary decision can be made to exclude a program, however, that's the price I'm willing to pay to have my phone just work. Bitcoin is bigger than Apple. Whether Apple realizes this or not is irrelevant.

P.S., I didn't type this and I'm posting from my iPhone.

No you got it wrong. If you choose apple, you also choose not to have a Bitcoin client. So you can choose between apple and Bitcoin. So don't complain once your choice was apple.
Or you choose to jailbreak your phone, or you choose to have a separate QR code reader, or you choose to build your app from source with xcode. I'm cool with that, and trust me, I do open source.
So your choice would be Windows with a MacOS theme instead of MacOS?

Now you like Android, good for you I respect your choice, I'll personnally pass for now thank you very much.
I like real freedom, instead of hacks that taste a little bit like freedom.

You are free to choose

But if you choose a fail thing then other ppl will notice your choice and react based on that. Buying iphone is so much fail.

A Galaxy S3 with the latest version of android is so much much much better.

I said "Linux", you said "Unix".
We're both right Smiley


Do Unix programs/apps run on Android or Meego? I really like Tizen also. Do Unix apps run on that one?
