Monerujo

Another Android Monero Wallet

QUICKSTART

  • Download the APK for the most current release here and install it
  • Run the App and select "Generate Wallet" to create a new wallet or recover a wallet
  • Advanced users can copy over synced wallet files (all files) onto sdcard in directory Monerujo (created first time App is started)
  • See the FAQ

Disclaimer

You may lose all your Moneroj if you use this App. Be cautious when spending on the mainnet.

Random Notes

  • Based off monero v0.11.0.0 with PR #2289 applied
  • currently only android32 (runs on 64-bit as well)
  • works on the testnet & mainnet
  • sync is slow due to 32-bit architecture
  • use your own daemon - it's easy
  • screen stays on until first sync is complete
  • saves wallet only on first sync and when sending transactions or editing notes
  • Monerujo means "Monero Wallet" according to https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/3exy7t/esperanto_corner/

TODO

  • more sensible error dialogs

Issues / Pitfalls

  • The backups folder is now called "backups" and not ".backups" - which in most file explorers was a hidden folder
  • Wallets are now created directly in the "monerujo" folder, and not in the ".new" folder as before
  • You may want to check the old folders with a file browsing app and delete the ".new" and ".backups" folders AFTER moving neccessary wallet files to the new locations. Or simply make new backups from within Monerujo.
  • Also note, that on some devices the backups will only be visible on a PC over USB after a reboot of the device (it's an Android bug/feature)
  • Created wallets on a private testnet are unusable because the restore height is set to that of the "real" testnet. After creating a new wallet, make a new one by recovering from the seed. The official monero client shows the same behaviour.
