Hey everyone,

I just created a tutorial for Mycelium Android wallet. It is really for beginners, ideal for first time users. This is the ultimate "for dummies" version.

Feedback not only welcome, highly encouraged!

Thanks for the guide. I was on the fence about getting a mobile wallet, mostly too lazy to find a good one. Now I have it! Thanks

Im new to Mycelium and still browsing their features. Im on backup stage now. Just cant find the passphrase option to recover backup.

It's easy, first click the backup from settings button, after that you need to enter pin code then you get the notif about "Do you want to do this now?" choose "yes", and you get your master seed backup just click show first word, next word and continued, until 12 words is showed, but don't forget to write down every word.

the cool thing is, mycelium makes sure you wrote those words down. you have to write them at some point as security question

Yeah I write all 12 words in my gmail. Cheesy

Just forwarded the link to my girlfriend, hoping that this time she will be interested in using bitcoins again.

Nice tutorial btw, not only newbie-friendly, but fully-comprehensive for people who never used any bitcoin wallet yet. Thanks for this one! I am trying hard to explain to my girlfriend how to use her wallet, but in here, you summed it up perfectly.

Nice tutorial. But maybe add some tutorial about Sign Message feature is good optional i think, because it's important to who need a sign message from their Mycelium address.
Keep it work

I like it. It is not just for noobs, it is good for anyone who has not used that wallet yet. Good luck I found this, I was thinking of getting Mycelium for my phone.
