Introduction

Bitcoin wallet is an android application that allows users to keep their bitcoin in it. It is a cold wallet and a very safe way to keep your bitcoin.

Component

My suggestion is on the

  • Settings interface and
  • Landing page.

Proposal

Bitcoin wallet is a cold wallet and it’s mainly peer to peer meaning no-one is holding your personal information. I still believe that it can be improved.

  • Specific price alert – Bitcoin wallet possess price notification feature that alerts users of the current bitcoin price. I propose the addition of specific price alerts. Users should be able to create a price that the application will alert them once the price exceeds that amount or goes below it.

  • Exchange price alerts – The price alert being given as notification is an average across exchanges. I propose that users should be able to select their exchange of choice that the alert will be displayed.

  • Other coin information – The landing page contains Bitcoin, Ether, and Bitcoin Cash charts. Below it, we have the Bitcoin information. I noticed that switching to Ether will only change the price and the chart but the con information will not change. I propose that bot Ether and Bitcoin Cash information dhould be included on the landing page.

Mockups/Examples

The above is the specific alert mockup and you can see how I want it to be modified. users will be able to choose a value below the current price or above it. Once the price reaches the value chosen, it will alert the user.

This is the exchange price alerts. Users have the ability to select from a list of exchanges whose bitcoin prices will be used for alert.

The last mockup is the other coin information. You can see how it has been modified to show Ether coin information.

Benefits

Specific Price alert - This is a very important feature that will improve the application. It gives users the opportunity to get alerts when bitcoin price drops below or exceeds your specified price range. This is a particular useful feature that will help users keep track of the price and sell or buy if they wish. It’s a very important feature for Bitcoin traders.

Exchange price alerts - The current price alert is that of average across exchanged and does not reflect a single exchange price. Enabling users to select a specific exchange whose alert will be shown as notification will greatly improve the application. It means users that use a particular exchange can know what the price is presently in their exchange of choice without necessarily opening another external application. For instance, if I use Binance as my favourite exchange, I will be happy to see exchange prices from Binance only right inside the application. The average price across exchanges doesn’t give the true price.

Coin information - This is a basic but yet important feature that will improve Bitcoin Wallet. With the wallet having 3 different coins whose name and chart are shown, it is normal for users to be eager to see more information about each of the coins. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Users can only see additional information about Bitcoin alone. The ability of users to view more information about Ether and Bitcoin cash will let them have more knowledge without resorting to third party applications.

Conclusion

The Bitcoin wallet will see more adoption if these suggestions are implemented. They will definitely increase the number of users utilizing it on a daily basis.
