Feature request: remove swipe requirement for low value transaction (e.g. <$20) #514

When you pay with BCH in person, the extra swipe that needs to be done after scanning the QR code adds unnecessary seconds to the transaction time. It would be great if it could just pay the merchant by scanning the QR code, skipping the confirmation slide for low value transactions. This would make it easier and faster to buy a cup of coffee in person. It could be made optional of course. The opposite can also be done, requiring entering a PIN before making a large value transaction.

Thanks for the feedback!

It only takes half a second to swipe and if you skip the "swipe-to-send" screen, then you would also be skipping the confirmation screen. It doesn't matter what or who i am paying, i always like to double check that the correct amount and coin is being sent.

Regarding the pin for high value transactions. Users can already set a "spending password" on any wallet they have. If set the spending password needs to be entered before the wallet will sign a transaction for any amount being sent.
