Unstoppable Wallet has Blockchain settings that can be more private by selecting the From Blockchain option, although the API option is recommended. However, the impact is that when opening the wallet, it takes longer for the synchronization process.

The delayed synching occur when you have just created or imported the wallet.

Not happening because it just created or imported a wallet, the synchronization process occurs every time we open the application after completing the passcode, especially when the first time opens the day in question.
For example today I have not opened it, when I open it then it will happen. But it just happened once, when the wallet was closed, then when I entered again, the synchronization process was not repeated.

Sometimes a circular circle in the Bitcoin icon on the Unstoppable wallet which indicates the synchronization process is running does not require a long time.

I have used many wallets but am really convinced by the simplicity and full range of features that I need in Electrum. I have been using it for years now and hardly use any other wallet. But what makes me regret the most is that it still doesn't have an iOS version even though many years have passed. I still see them actively improving the new desktop versions, but I don't know why they still can't make any version for iOS, even a beta version. OP, I really support your idea. But as everyone said, you should contact them on GitHub rather than here as they are inactive here. I hope to see Electrum on the app store soon.

Apart from Bluewallet which I believe is an open source bitcoin wallet on iOS, there is Bither, BitPay Wallet and Edge Wallet. Edge also supports other crypto assets besides bitcoin

This wallets do not have some of the features that Bluewallet has. I can not even recommend these wallets. Almost all bitcoin wallets that have excellent features are not supporting altcoins.

So true. I agree.
I also have no intention of recommending any of the wallets I mentioned above and I myself have never used them other than Electrum on desktop and BlueWallet on mobile. Previously I used Trus Wallet to store some coins, but it's probably the worst wallet I've ever used to store some coins.

BlueWallet is specifically for macOS and iOS users although it also supports Android. For me bluewallet is very trustworthy.

Hello! I want to participate in Electrum development and add an iOS app to your ecosystem. I already have a strong experience in developing such wallets on iOS. Also I can improve MacOS version.

In my opinion there are very few trusted open-source BTC wallets and unfortunately there are almost no one for iOS. I mean I can’t trust most BTC wallets on the App Store for different reasons. Some of them were made by weird companies and others are not open-source.

And I want to fix it. I’ve already sent my CV to [email protected] and [email protected] but still haven’t got any answer. Maybe I can reach Electrum developers here.

Fork the Repository. This will create a copy of the codebase under your account, allowing you to make changes without affecting the original project.

There's Unstoppable wallet which is open source, I have tried the Android version but never the iOS one: https://unstoppable.money/

Unstoppable wallet should just be for altcoins, it is not having many other features that reputed open source wallet have. It deos not have RBF and coin control. Bluewallet is still one of the best choice for iOS.

Maybe I can reach Electrum developers here.

I doubt they are going to reply anything in bitcointalk, and I don't think they are hiring new developers, but easiest place to get noticed by them is probably electrum github page.
Electrum mobile wallet for Android was never good enough for me, so I think you would need to make iOS app from scratch if you want other people to use it.
Meanwhile you can check out open source Unstoppable wallet for iOS.

I think your quote is wrong because the statement was not written in my post but written by appledev124 (OP):

Electrum developers are more active on Github than on the Bitcointalk forum. Try to create a topic and submit it here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pulls.

Bluewallet is not yet available on the bitcoin.org site if we search, but bluewallet is a bitcoin wallet that can be trusted for use on iOS, including on Android.

Electrum is an open source project under MIT License. You do not need to ask the developers to accept your C.V, you can FORK for the project and create a special copy or start writing an improvement and take a cue from the current sources. The only difference is that the new version will not be signed by Electrum developers, and then the person who trusts you is the one who will download it.

As for your sending your CV, then what for? I don't believe you need to send anything, you're free to contribute if you'd like to help:

Contributing
Any help testing the software, reporting or fixing bugs, reviewing pull requests and recent changes, writing tests, or helping with outstanding issues is very welcome. Implementing new features, or improving/refactoring the codebase, is of course also welcome, but to avoid wasted effort, especially for larger changes, we encourage discussing these on the issue tracker or IRC first.

Besides GitHub, most communication about Electrum development happens on IRC, in the #electrum channel on Libera Chat. The easiest way to participate on IRC is with the web client, web.libera.chat.

Bitcoin wallets for iOS are fewer than Bitcoin wallets on Android. One of the open-source Bitcoin wallets for iOS that I trust at the moment is BlueWallet.
