New GUI release with several important bug fixes, mobile improvements and new features.

Firefox backups working again

For the hosted wallets bitshares.org/wallet and Openledger this release fixes the "Invalid format" bug in Firefox that was preventing backups from being restored.

Scam accounts highlighted

There are several scam accounts created to profit from users trying to transfer their funds to exchanges like Bittrex and Polonium. These accounts use slightly misspelled versions of the account names for those exchanges, like polonie-wallet or bittrex-deopsit. The transfer dialog will now display a warning if you've entered one of those account names in the to field.

Better access to brain key restore

The Restore from brainkey functionality used to be hidden under the Create new wallet page. This release adds From brainkey as an option to the the restore options in the settings, making it far more intuitive to restore your wallet using a brain key.

Deposit/Withdraw layout and copy button

The layout on mobile for the deposit/withdraw screen has been improved, and a Copy address button has been added that will let you easily copy the address to the clipboard.

A link has also been added to the mobile menu that lets you access the Deposit/Withdraw page more easily.

@svk, Should I uninstall old version first before installing this version?

@svk | Aug. 30, 2016, 7:56 a.m. | Votes: 2 | [ VOTE ]

No, just install this one on top of your old one, that way you're sure to keep your wallet. Making a backup first is never a bad idea of course, but should not be necessary.

Great work svk!
As more and more users are coming to use wallet, the API seems very busy, and sometimes it is stuck. Is it possible to auto connect the least busy API or display how busy each API is?
Thanks.
