Thanks for the info! Looks like it’s time to throw away (literally) the Tangem cards and find another solution!

Lightning support in mobile Exodus wallet is gone.

Just had a bloody terrifying half an hour with my Exodus wallet. 
Opened it after a while -
BTC funds were there,
but ETH completely at 0.
Seemed like it made its own Exodus 
,
but without any visible transactions.
Started googling/redditing and saw that some folks apparently got compromised (but my 12 word key definitely didn’t leak anywhere, and I only have it installed on my mobile, where I auth with a fingerprint).
Only after several attempts at refreshing the network (feature of the app) have the funds ultimately showed up.
Anyone had a similar experience with Exodus?
Makes me rethink whether I need to change the asset location, but I’m still resisting hardware wallets (for not so huge funds that I got).

why would you do that?
I would like to refresh our discussion about crypto wallets, in particular software ones. Even if you use a hardware one, you still need some kind of software to use it.
As a note, I only consider software wallets that can be recovered from a seed phase. I came across few where the secret key was on a server and protected by your password, and others where the wallet backup was a long file, and rejected both types.
So far I was using:
- Exodus desktop software in a “Linux on a USB stick” installation:
I need this software only to generate crypto addresses and from time to time to check the setup and eventually transfer out coins that dropped out of my crypto index (see elsewhere). These addresses are my long term crypto storage, as described above.
The associated software data are only generated temporary from a seed phrase that I have memorized and also wrote down in an obscured way.
- Exodus app in a mobile phone:
Some temporary holdings, USDT, small holdings that might soon drop out of the index.
- Exodus extension for Chrome on a desktop computer:
I use it in a dedicated Chrome profile for DeFi swaps.
All Exodus apps are multi-coin wallets, all addresses are generated from the same seed phrase. All in all it is a good software.
A little con: only one wallet can be active at a time. To switch wallets, you have to delete the existing one and restore a new one from a recovery phrase.
- Trust Wallet app in a mobile phone:
I use it for some coins that are not supported by Exodus.
An advantage of this wallet is that you can have multiple wallets, and switch between them in the interface. There are multi-coin wallets, where all addresses are generated from the same seed phrase. There are also single coin wallets which I didn’t really looked into, but probably I should.
I have a feeling that Trust has less (or just a different set of) networks than Exodus, but more tokens per network. Also the interface is s bit too flashy for my tastes.

MetaMask mobile app: for DeFi swaps.

SideSwap mobile app: temporary Liquid Bitcoin holdings, which I accumulate before withdrawing BTC to the long-term storage address on the base net.

Well, I have restarted this topic not only out of altruistic reasons, but because I also want some feedback from the community.
I was actually looking for a wallet for Monero XMR and came across some interesting wallets:
-
There is Monerujo that I have used some time ago. Still looks like a solid choice for a mobile device.
-
Cake Wallet, for mobile and desktop platforms
https://cakewallet.com/
Multiple coins.
- Stack Wallet
https://www.stackwallet.com/
Open source, available for all major desktop and mobile platforms, privacy features, seems to create a separate seed phrase for each coin.
Thoughts and feedback?
Is a bit clunky, but it works. Seems a resonable choice. I don’t know if multi coin wallets will make good use of XMRs features. But maybe that is not required. For the highest requirements cli is probably the way to go, anyway (you could run it on an Android).

I’m still using the good old Ledger for BTC/ETH (90%) and Binance/Kraken for my S*** coins (10%). Unless you are a real trader I would feel comfortable using the big exchanges as long as the value of these coins is small.
I went with Cake Wallet for XMR. It seems to be better supported and longer developed, and the team is better integrated in Monero community.
