Ratings and reviews

I've been using electrum as my go to software wallet and its features are great but the mobile app is full of bugs. It freezes and crashes quite often, the keyboard won't load at times, it won't let me go back to a previous page without restarting and now I cannot create a new wallet. It worked ok for a year or so but it seems to be getting worse.

WARNING: there is a bug in this app that will automatically set the amount parameter to "max(!)" Should you send more than 1 wallet has.. for example, you have 2 wallets active in the app.. one wallet has 10$ worth of BTC which you received first, the other 100$ for a total of 110$ in the 2 wallets you generated using electrum. If you were to send say 50$.. it will pull from the 10$ wallet first, which will empty it. For some reason it sets the parameter to max automatically. Lost all my btc.

I was once able to add money to electrum and then send it to where I wanted it to go. Now I have to go through this ridiculous mess of swaps. Forward swaps, lightning,reverse swaps. Then my funds are insufficient because of all the fees incurred with these stupid swaps. Can anybody tell me how to get my money out of this madness and into a better wallet that looks like electric used to? I don't use it much I don't think much I don't need all the complications. Help!
