Ratings and reviews

Alby Go is a great Lightning wallet for those who run their own nodes. It connects to your node via NWC, and acts as a front-end, handling all your send and receive transactions. It's incredibly simple to use with just your balance shown on the screen, abd two large buttons to send and receive. There's another little button to pull up your transaction log, and that's pretty much it. If you run your own Lightning node, Alby Go is a must-have companion.

excellent, easy-to-use. Alby is your perfect online companion

it's a good app, however takes time to understand what you're doing and linking the albygo app to the hub has not been straightforward. I know the guys are working hard. I'm not technically minded and I've eventually navigated it. I'm playing around at the moment, in the hope that I can use lightning payments, which I haven't done yet. I had to open up a channel to open/connect the Albygo wallet, which I didn't have to do before. and I paid for pro and don't really understand what it does.
