If your "send" transaction is showing as "unpaid" like this:

it likely means that you clicked the "save" icon instead of clicking "Pay"... (or possibly that your transaction failed to broadcast to the network, but it should give an error message if that happens).

To correct this, tap on the transaction, you'll see this screen:

Tap the "Pay" button, and you'll be prompted to select the fee etc:

After setting the fee rate to what you want, tap the "OK" button, and you'll be prompted to confirm:

If you're happy, tap the "OK" button... you'll go back to the "Send" overview screen... and after a short delay, your transaction status should change to "Unconfirmed":

If it stays as "unpaid", then it essentially means that your transaction has not been broadcast for some reason and is only stored locally on your android device. Check your network settings (3 dot menu -> Network) and make sure you are connected to servers:

you could long tap it and see if it gives you any options like the option to delete it and start over.

Might be saved as an Unpaid invoice because you're clicking the floppy disk icon instead of the "Pay" button. Upon launching Electrum, click the Send tab, paste the recipient (this is the address you want to send to!), fill in the amount and press the "Pay" button. Set the fee rate as high as you want and click Send. Does that not work for you?

I'm trying to send "Max" of funds its around 0.3 BTC.. but instead of transferring that amount.. it's created invoice and stored as unpaid statu

I have not tried it before, but I think this will be useful, the bolded words.

OP, the invoices you generate in this way are simply used by Electrum to track payments you have requested. If a payment is not paid within the time frame you specified, or pays less than you have requested, it will flag up as it did in your case here. That doesn't necessarily mean you have not received any payment though, and payments can still be made just fine after your request has expired.

So likely you created an invoice in which you included a transaction that is more than the max you sent. If this is the case, do not just include the amount to receive in the invoice next time, so far you already know you will send max.

Is the funds still on your electrum wallet?

I don't have the mobile version on my phone anymore, so i can't try it out for myself, but i'm wondering if you're on the correct tab inside electrum mobile.

When you create a transaction you should not end up creating an invoice... But i'm going to step out of this thread so people that do have the mobile version installed could give you some pointers.

Never mind me, and you can correct me, but I think invoice and/or invoice address is not needed for this unless to check if the invoice is time stamped, but irrespective of it being time-stamped or not, it will not affect sending.

Yes.. it's my address I'm trying to send funds from my Electrum wallet to my Atomic Wallet (1M2YPQ4kSBfbDmuSNte88JMpjZXCmGfJep)

Hope your wallet is synchronizing with the blockchain? You will see that in the history at the upper part, clearly in bold.

Make sure your wallet synchronize with the blockchain. Make sure you have enough amount for the payment. These are the two likely reasons the invoice is marked unpaid.

Well i make invoice for 2 addresses:
1M2YPQ4kSBfbDmuSNte88JMpjZXCmGfJep
And tried this:
bc1qsz45xhr97hwprsczylerpl6z52cxa957arqa0t

2 invoices but
I need only one transaction..

Wait... One step back here... You were the one creating invoices? Did you give the address to the person you were invoicing?

https://blockstream.info/address/bc1qsz45xhr97hwprsczylerpl6z52cxa957arqa0t
https://blockstream.info/address/1M2YPQ4kSBfbDmuSNte88JMpjZXCmGfJep

The legacy address (1M2YPQ4kSBfbDmuSNte88JMpjZXCmGfJep) seems to have been used about a year ago... Are you sure it's yours?

Neither of the addresses were funded recently, it seems there are no unconfirmed transaction funding either of these addresses in the mempool.

So, you created a invoice, can you walk me trough what you did next?

By the way: you don't need to create invoices to receive funds... An invoice is a concept that only exists inside your wallet... All you need to do to receive funds is generate an address and give it to the sender.

The wallet itself show less informations about sending process.. only invoice data and status unpaid.. i tried ETA fee then mampool fee.. it still not sent

If you'd share the address that was shown to you (the address you wanted to fund) we might be able to work backwards from there... Do realise that sharing an address like this might hurt your privacy (not your security, only your privacy).

With the info you provided, it's impossible to tell what's going wrong.

If i had to guess, i'd say the chances are reasonably high you're not using a sufficiently high feerate.

If you want to find out if this guess is correct, you'll need to provide a lot more details: which feerate are you using, what's the txid (posting txid's and addresses decreases your privacy, but not your wallet security), which payment provider is issuing an invoice,...

Paying an invoice shouldn't be that hard. If you're spending outputs from confirmed transactions, using a decent fee and there's nothing wrong with your connection, the average waiting time *could* be as low as ~5 minutes.
