hi,

following is written at the changelog section on google play:

DON'T USE FOR MINING POOL OR FAUCET PAYOUTS!

so i would like to ask why thats so? what dose it make for a difference wherefrom the coins are transfered?

langerhans commented 7 years ago

Because mining pools and faucets tend to send coins out in large transactions with hundreds of outputs. Those can seriously impact the performance of SPV based wallets if you receive them regularly cause a lot of memory and processing power is required to keep track of them.

but than could you improve that?
