multiple coins under single app? #7

Open jeremyawon opened 6 years ago

jeremyawon commented 6 years ago

It seems this app is compiled separately for each coin, although they differ only in build parameters like BTCHIP_P2PKH_VERSION and BTCHIP_P2SH_VERSION?

Could these parameters be moved into the application settings? It would save space on device to use just one app with an initial coin-selection prompt.

Am I overlooking any problems with this?

That's part of a redesign in progress

Is there any (estimated) ETA?

If there's any one thing that makes Ledger hard to use it's switching between apps and uninstalling and reinstalling apps. As mentioned above, many coins work in identical ways, so a more generic app should be created to cover all Bitcoin like coins. This isn't just a programmer feature - this would make the whole device a heap more usable.
