looking for a software wallet for eth, not hard, just for cold storage, not a browser plugin. running on pc and android

There are so many software wallets which support ethereum. Most of these have been suggested to you. But I think it is better to use official software. Here is the official website for MEW https://www.myetherwallet.com/. You can download MEW Android App from official website.

MyEtherWallet is not an official Ethereum wallet.
Previously, the Ethereum coin had an official wallet
https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases/
It was slow, did not update well
But then the developers abandoned this principle and for the development of the ecosystem they decided that other teams would start developing new wallets.
in 2018, interesting and convenient alternatives to the official wallet began to appear.

Mewwallet is nice for android. You can easily connect it to the website when on PC. Exodus and Atomic wallet may have both Android and PC wallet support and could run the same thing at both places but it's difficult to manage ERC20 tokens and the interface is a clutter if you are using just a few of the coins. Trustwallet is also a popular option now as they support ERC20 tokens.

I personally use MyEtherWallet, Trust wallet and IM token app. I'm using MEW from 2017. This is good to keep token. In the last year I'm start using Trust Wallet. This is also so good and user friendly. Everything is so much easy. In Trust wallet, Sending token is easier that MEW. You can use it both in computer and Android. Trust wallet have Android app. You can use them without any hesitation.

The most famous wallet for Ethereum is MyEtherWallet.
I already forgot the whole story, but then the development team split up and another wallet appeared - MyCrypto.
Their functionality and interfaces were similar because they were developed by the same team.
I prefer MyCrypto, it is more user-friendly and I like its interface better.
But Ethereum wallets are compatible with all applications and you can easily use the wallet created in MyCrypto in any other application.

Previously I only used MEW to store and make Ethereum transaction. I haven't tried the "MyCrypto" wallet because I don't need it so far. Maybe try it next time for some experience. While using MEW, I think we have had good experience managing our crypto asset based on Ethereum and to date MEW is still believed to be one of the best Ethereum wallet to date. I hope the OP can choice one of the recommended wallet. This should be based on need and a good level of security.

The one that makes mew lost popularity is years ago there's so many pishing sites copied their page and create similar domain to get people's private keys.
But if you know how to use it in secure way, it is the best one.

Bookmark the site and use it, this will help you and others to continue using the original site.

Myetherwallet is one of the best ethereum wallet imo. It is an easy-to-use wallet with many ways to connect to any devices. The one that makes mew lost popularity is years ago there's so many pishing sites copied their page and create similar domain to get people's private keys.
But if you know how to use it in secure way, it is the best one.

I have bad experience with MEW and that's why i was moving to the new wallet. I were going to the new wallet like guarda, jax , imtoken, mycrypto and exodes. Many of these wallets already developed the desktop wallet and then you can try to use such wallet on your dekstop. I personally will try to pick these wallet rather than MEW or metamask
These wallets have very good security too.

Atomic, Mist, Edge,... these are some of the wallets that i often use, must say to use regularly.
I use them on my computer and almost every message i need will be able to handle it when using it.
You can install and experience them to see which one is right for you.

If you're looking for a wallet just for cold storage, then I don't understand the need for an android version. You don't need a wallet if you just want to keep track of your portfolio on your smartphone.

As for the wallet suggestions, I believe other users before me have already listed everything.

I'm using MyCrypto desktop wallet for 4 years now and I never encounter any issue it's a dedicated wallet for Ethereum and it's secure since it's a desktop one, and they always update the software from time to time for maximum security, they also have an android version go to their official website and download the app and software from their page only.

MEW and Mycrypto.
These two are connected to each other. MEW has an app but I mostly use it on a browser. Whilst Mycrypto, for browser only.

Try out MyEtherWallet.
It is now available in the Google Play Store and you can use it mobile. Quite convenient, in my opinion.
Back then it was only in their site that generates a wallet. I wouldn't recommend that method though as it is unsecured method of having a wallet.

It looks like imtoken could be the best choice but i do agree with people who have been suggesting about mycrypto. These wallet will be very easy to be accessed by you and it never encounter any bug like metamask or something else when it comes to create a transaction. Sometimes the wallet like metamask was showing incorrect fees and that will make the users being frustated.
it's better to pick the best one but im token already supported all of erc assets.

So far, I am using the wallet on myetherwallet (MEW), and started using Trust wallet. as long as I know altcoins especially ERC20, I always use MEW and I have no problem with it. If you want to use a desktop wallet or an Android app, then Trust wallet is probably what I can recommend.

For cold storage? Why not purchasing a Hardware wallet if you want to hold it for a long-term purpose since you're talking about cold storage, so it supposedly a long-term of holding your coin.

The same on Electrum, I think Coinomi has the same feature but it's a multi-sig wallet. It's supported both PC and Android application.

Okay not a browser, so MEW here is exempted. Here's what I can suggest.
