The app doesn't work. Used it once for the NFT mint. Since then I've reinstalled and recovered from seed. After ~12hr of syncing I finally see transaction history but don't have access to funds. Wallet perpetually syncs & upon reaching 100% it'll restart at slightly higher % then the last resync. Switch servers and start all over again. Seems like a good way to burn ZEC supply. I love the idea of ZEC but take this off z.cash website.

Hello, Sorry to hear about your experience with restoring the wallet. Older wallets may take longer for a first time sync due to the spam attack on the network. The following sync ups are faster and switching servers requires checking for the latest block and chain status. Please email us at nighthawkwallet@protonmail.com if the issue persists.

Maybe more robust settings options like lock with fingerprints or a pass code. Maybe a big green button under the send Zcash for a recieve Zcash button. Don't like the side shift button where something more useful could be, like a switch between USD/ZEC balance view, that would be HUGE(same for sending, ; visual $$ amounts will help interface.) These are tiny nags, tested small amounts a couple times, it works like a wallet should, privacy is a must!

The app is very slow to network and if open got process for long hours and still not functioning properly to menu wallet where I could find my tokens... Since they app give or issued to me address to receive token it never open and then I find it difficult to my coins... Why? Google play store should look towards app check mating before uploading.. this is nonsense.

Thank you for your feedback Alexander. We are looking forward to ship faster syncing on Nighthawk Wallet. Meanwhile, please increase device lock time & try waiting to let the download and syncing finish before using the wallet. Our focus has been strong privacy & reducing information leaks to third parties.
