What’s changed

In Envoy v1.8.2, we’ve focused primarily on refining the Envoy experience you know and love, improving the new Buy Bitcoin feature, and adding the ability to import a SeedQR seed as your Envoy mobile wallet seed.

For more details on each of the changes, keep reading below!

 

New Features

  • Added the ability to import a SeedQR seed as your Envoy mobile wallet seed.

    • Ever wanted to use a seed from Passport’s Key Manager extension for your Envoy mobile wallet? Well now it’s easier than ever, now just requiring a single scan of the SeedQR on Passport to populate on Envoy.

Improvements

  • Updated Arti (the underlying Tor library used in Envoy) to version 1.2.4

  • Added option to disable the Buy feature for those users that don’t want to use it

  • Envoy will default to our own instance of mempool.space moving forward

    • Looking for another mempool.space to use to check your own transactions from anywhere? Check out mempool.foundation.xyz 😎

  • Countless visual improvements throughout Envoy

  • Improved the account selection behavior when buying Bitcoin within Envoy

    • Tapping the card stack will now open the account selection screen

    • You can no longer hide/un-hide account balances from these screens

  • Improved dependency vulnerability tracking in GitHub and patched minor upstream dependency issues

  • Envoy will now immediately try to reconnect to the selected node when Tor is turned on or off in Envoy

  • Long pressing a Ramp ID or BTCPay ID from the transaction details view will now copy that field to the clipboard as well

  • Long pressing transaction ID or address will now warn a user before copying

    • Sometimes you don’t want to expose a transaction ID to your clipboard, and this adds an extra choice step for those users.

  • Improved the way that swiping left/right on an account hides or shows the balance, making it more responsive and accurate to user intent

  • New accounts icon added

  • Tapping Send Selected or Send Max will now show all trailing zeroes

  • If a Pending BTCPay voucher is cancelled, it will now disappear from Activity instead of staying Pending forever

  • Improved tap response area in the Coin Details screen

  • Updated informational icon to a warning icon if BDK removed a coin from the selection in high fee environments

  • Improved Spanish, Catalan, and Portuguese translations

  • Improved handling of HTTP and HTTPS node addresses in the node address field

  • Added a FAQ section with information about buying bitcoin

  • Scanning BTCPay vouchers from an invalid Bitcoin network will now fail gracefully

  • Updated Support URLs

 

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an instance where using Android’s native back gesture could be interpreted as a double-back gesture and take the user back two menus instead of one

  • Fixed a minor visual issue where if adding a Passport account after enabling a taproot, Tapping Continue would display an incorrect screen

  • Fixed a minor issue where during wallet setup tapping an account would not make the “tap the account above to receive bitcoin” prompt disappear

  • Fixed a minor issue where if you used android’s native back gesture from the buy bitcoin menu it would take you to the select region page instead of the main accounts menu

  • Fixed a visual bug where tapping Receive while the top right corner menu was open would result in an unintended vertical shift

  • Fixed a back button that did not work in the unlikely scenario that a Magic Backup was not found in our servers

  • Fixed some rare instances where the fee calculation percentage would be incorrectly displayed

  • Fixed a bug where using android’s native back gesture during wallet backup import process could leave the user in a perpetual loading loop

  • Fixed a minor display bug where sometimes the Send screen would be pre-populated with the information of a previously sent transaction

  • Fixed a bug where smaller iPhone screens wouldn’t be able to scroll the seed display when viewing it in Settings

  • Fixed some broken links in the FAQ section
