The simplest and most secure Litecoin wallet on any platform

Unlike other iOS bitcoin wallets, LoafWallet is a real standalone Litecoin client. There is no server to get hacked or go down, so you can always access your money. Using SPV mode, LoafWallet connects directly to the Litecoin network with the fast performance you need on a mobile device.

LoafWallet is designed to protect you from malware, browser security holes, even physical theft. With AES hardware encryption, app sandboxing, keychain and code signatures, LoafWallet represents a significant security advance over web and desktop wallets, and other mobile platforms.

Simplicity is LoafWallet's core design principle. A simple backup phrase is all you need to restore your wallet on another device if yours is ever lost or broken. Because LoafWallet is deterministic, your balance and transaction history can be recovered from just your backup phrase.

• "Simplified payment verification" for fast mobile performance
• No server to get hacked or go down
• Single backup phrase that works forever
• Private keys never leave your device
• Import password protected paper wallets
• "Payment protocol" payee identity certification

LoafWallet supports the x-callback-url specification with the following URLs:

loaf://x-callback-url/address?x-success=myscheme://myaction

This will callback with the current wallet receive address: myscheme://myaction?address=1XXXX

The following will ask the user to authorize copying a list of their wallet addresses to the clipboard before calling back:

loaf://x-callback-url/addresslist?x-success=myscheme://myaction

Installation on jailbroken devices is strongly discouraged.

Any jailbreak app can grant itself access to every other app's keychain data and rob you by self-signing as described here and including <key>application-identifier</key><string>*</string> in its .entitlements file.

LoafWallet is open source and available under the terms of the MIT license.
