No full nodes needed to open channels. This will take Bitcoin to VISA/MC levels in terms of usability. Altcoins will take a lot damage too.

I'll have a look at it, I'm really interested. It's using eclair as I saw, and it should be a kind of neutrino type node/wallet because it doesn't need a full node. As the LN went beta recently, I was waiting for something like this, but I was expecting it much later, so I'm really happy now

That's really impressive!
The android wallet also fulfills my main criteria, being open-source https://github.com/ACINQ/eclair-wallet/tree/testnet/app/src/main.
