BlueWallet v8.0.1 is Out: Liquid Glass, Private Notifications and More

Hot on the heels of v8.0.0, we’re back with v8.0.1. Smaller number, but don’t let that fool you, there’s a lot packed in here. Let’s get into it.

Liquid Glass for iOS

If you’re on iOS, the app now embraces Apple’s Liquid Glass design. It’s subtle, it’s smooth, and it makes BlueWallet feel right at home on your latest iPhone.

Private push notifications

This one’s a favorite. Thanks to community contributor @r6mez, you can now hide payment details from Apple and Google’s push notification servers.

Normally, a notification looks like this:

Amounts and payment info flowing through push servers isn’t ideal if you care about privacy. So we added a toggle for it.

Turn it on, and you’ll just get a simple, generic heads-up instead. No amounts, no payment details, just a nudge to open the app.

New features

  • Import Unchained JSON as a multisig cosigner
  • Support for BC-UR v2 air-gapped scanning for hardware wallets (OneKey, Keystone)
  • RBF enabled for single-sig watch-only wallets (HD Bech32)
  • 19 new languages, including Filipino, Armenian, Akan and Sesotho

Improvements

  • Renewed Settings UI
  • Better contrast on the green success color
  • Faster transaction fetching for HD wallets
  • Swapped out crypto-js for modern noble crypto libraries under the hood

Fixes

  • A crash on startup
  • Laggy amount input on the RBF custom fee screen
  • Text size on main app views, plus a clipped wallet balance in the carousel
  • QR codes no longer have rounded corners
  • The signed transaction hex screen now stays scrollable
  • The floating button no longer overlaps the transaction details UI (it was blocking it before, now it plays nice)

Here’s a quick look at the app in action:

BlueWallet is free and open source. If you appreciate the work, a review on the app stores goes a long way, and if you feel like supporting us further, donations are open too.
