Seemed promising, but stopped working
The update on Dec. 4 seemed to install fine, but the next day the App won’t open, the only screen it gives is, “Lava’s latest version is here. Please update it now” and clicking the button does nothing. I’ve deleted and reinstalled and get the same message, both on iOS iPhone and iPad versions, whether on WiFi or data, nothing. No access to the App means no access to my bitcoin! Now that Lava has dropped their self-custody model completely and become a custodian who we are supposed to just trust, this is patently NOT A GOOD LOOK!

Warning: Funds Not Safe
Downloaded app in December 2024. Advertised as wallet that did not require seed phrase. Dev changed business model and modified app. I updated app and wallet balance vanished. Contacted support and response was can’t help you if you don’t have seed phrase.
