Lightning Fork for Android 0.2.3, a test build. It's a remote for your own Lightning Fork node; your funds stay on the node.

New

  • Short-lived SHA256 invoices. Shops often issue invoices that live about a minute. The app now gets a firm price as soon as an invoice is scanned, shows how long the invoice and the price have left, and pays in one tap.
  • A new price when it runs out. Pressing pay after the price ran out gets a new one, and pays it at once if it is no higher; otherwise the new price is shown first.
  • "Expires too soon" said plainly. An invoice that can't be paid in time says to ask for a new invoice and pay it right away, and the pay button is disabled.
  • Activity: a SHA256 invoice payment that was returned no longer reads as paid.

Needs Lightning Fork on your node at StartOS 0.21.4-beta.21:0 or Umbrel 0.21.4-beta-blake2b.21.0, and a bridge service on the same version, to pay short-lived invoices. With earlier versions it works as 0.2.2 did.

Install

Download lightning-fork-0.2.3.apk, SHA256SUMS and SHA256SUMS.asc, then check them:

gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

Install the APK over 0.2.2; it stays paired.

APK signing certificate SHA-256: ef6d6eca37ced88d8dd36e11b2558ce59bfb386ad0b51e7226370d396304d392 (the same as 0.2.2).
