The first I can think of:
  • The POS could be more compact, on some smartphone the final button is hidden and this can be quite confusing (real time noticed on the last business I orange pilled with Blink).
  • It would be nice to have an option to hide stablesats. Ideally it should be opt-in.
  • It's really nice that transactions show the original fiat value, but it would be nice to also show the % variation against the current value. In the long term a business can easily see how convenient it has been to accept Bitcoin.

  1. Aware of this, in works
  2. Why? What would be the reason for that?
  3. No room for that and nobody does that.

  1. Great!
  1. Because A) It is confusing for someone that is starting with Bitcoin have a new concept to learn, especially not USA shops that see a dollar sign. B) Many people don't like stablecoins.
  1. I mean in the details, where the space is not a problem. Maybe this is not the coolest feature, but all the new ideas have not been done by anyone, by definition, so...

Stablesats are bitcoin not stablecoin. Well, here in Salvador people know dollar and need it. BTC account is default so unless you change it, you never touch them.

I agree with this! it's also useless to me, and making the screen so crowded.

Good to know you guys listen to feedback! 1st - "there is an easy way to swap sats between your BTC and Stablesat accounts" - well, HOW? I am usually not THAT dumb with software, but have not figured that one out after a couple days, except fiddling with a stablesat invoice and paying myself. Would be nice if that feature was a bit more obvious or explained somewhere in the docs. 2nd - I love the idea of the "learn Bitcoin for Sats" thing. Might wanna work through those again and check for glitches, there are several cases where the "right" answer is wrong, or the right answer gives green feedback, but you can only advance after choosing a different, wrong answer... xD 3rd - Nostr integration
