Lightweight GUI Wallet for the uPlexa Currency (UPX)

---

Meet ElectraLight, the new Electron based Wallet. This initial release already brings several improvements over previous GUI wallet.

• Wallet switch option. You can keep several wallets on one PC, and switch between them easily - just pick your wallet from the list and enter your password.

• Wallet naming and identifying Easily identify your wallets - you can give names to them, and each wallet has its own unique identicon image.

• Mixed sync. logic Use the best from both ways of sync: remote (speed) and local (reliability). At wallet startup, you connect to remote node granting quicker operation state. At the same time, you download blockchain files on your hard drive. It will add more reliability to wallet operation. If remote connection fails, you will have local node running. You can also choose to run as normal full node or lite option.

• Power user settings You may rely on predefined optimum settings, or you can edit settings (list will be expanded):

  • Sync. switch (mixed/local/remote)
  • Lmdb storage path
  • Various ports (daemon, p2p, uplexad, remote etc)
  • Remote node URL
  • Bandwidth utilization (upload/download speed)

• Improved address book Adding recipients into your address book will let you keep track of who you have sent funds to - you can add recipients of your payments beforehand, or after transactions. Seamless address validation of fields is built into the address book.

• Lazy load tx history tab Scroll down and check your transactions list without pagination

• Interface updates Resizable window with various UX improvements over previous version

• Increased stability and response time Known issue with stuck processes after closing GUI wallet is now a past history. Overall increased speed and reduced response time of wallet's interface.

• Non latin seed restore Restore your wallet with non-latin characters (Russian, German, Chinese and other languages)

• Import wallet from old GUI wallet will scan default folders used by the original GUI wallet and will give ability to restore from key files.
