I use Offline wallets or what we called cold storage where your device did not touched or connected by the internet because most of the hackers uses viruses and malware's like fake application, email or not common wallet software's just to hack your wallet full of bitcoin basically uses internet as the gateway of control. cheap examples is an old laptop or computer without internet connection or a paper wallet. If you want to invest to the security you may try Ledger nano s or Trezor. i use paper and an old PC (No Internet since bought)

What wallet do you find very safe and not easily hacked by others?
What wallet do you wear from the past until now?
thanks

Safety of your wallet is directly linked with how much information you have about malwares and viruses. I mainly recommend people to use electrum, it offers 2FA, its lightweight and be used almost anywhere. It has enough security measures to help you, but at the end it all comes down to your skills.

Get a separate small hard disk or a pc, get clean copies of electrum and linux, install linux on the offline pc, install electrum, generate a new seed, write it down on a paper, save a copy of it on an encrypted usb drive or two. Write down few of your receiving addresses and you are good to go.

When you need to send btcs somewhere, logon to your offline pc, generate a Raw Transaction, sign it, copy the text after signing it and broadcast it from different services like blockchain.info, this is the safest you can get imo.

I think most of the online/offline wallet is safe as long as it is legitimate and you set the safety precautions of your account but if being online doesn't make your mind at piece then better make an local wallet for your own personal computer so you have your own control to your private keys/ seed that you don't have when using online wallet. Bitcoin was never been hacked and will never be I think only those bitcoin exchange has been hacked in the past so you can decide it for yourself now which wallet you are willing to use as all of it are almost the same with only different names.
thank you for your answer, if i want to use android as a tool to open wallet, as per your suggestion what wallet can i use? in application form? have you ever used it

Bitcoin hardware wallets are the most secure form of Bitcoin wallets, however, unlike software wallets, they cost money. If you’re serious about securing your Bitcoins go for a hardware wallet. If however you’re only storing a small amount of coins you can use one of the free software wallets.

I think the cold wallet is the safest, because without networking, hackers have no way to steal your password.
I've been using paper purses, mainly for the habit, of course. Paper wallet is very convenient, pay attention to protect your keys.

I personally have used:  blockchain, jaxx, xappo, coinbase, mycelium, copay, bread and several services that come with wallets such as xcoins and paxful
🦋The most convenient is copay
🦋The one who gives you true control over your money the easiest is Jaxx. 
🦋The one that seems easy but really can be bad if you aren't careful is blockchain.

I have to say that jaxx and copay are both missing a very important feature and that is the anil Thank You! to sign a message using an address.  It's confusing because blockchain wallet doesn't automatically generate addresses for which you get the key, by you CAN import wallets into blockchain with a private key.   So here's what I do to sign messages.  I export my address with private key from Jaxx into Blockchain wallet.  Then and only then I am able to control the funds and sign message using the exported / imported address. 

So ... I advise you to get Jaxx and immediately export adress to blockchain and ignore the wallet adress blockchain generates for you, and stick with the imported address.  That is your true money. 

Cheers

In our country the suitable wallet I had is coins.ph wallet, it is very safe wallet in our country as far as I know. Have a private key to log in beside from your gmail address and password. Easy to exchange with the bank with your bitcoin stack in wallet because it is have  own currency convented which is easy you to pull out from the bank.
