We have some new features we are excited to share with you!
Contact Address Book Integration (iOS):
Tired of scanning QR codes or copying and pasting addresses when sending payments? We've added a new feature for iOS that allows you to add Stellar addresses for your contacts so you can easily search for them when sending payments.
BlockPoints (PTS) Token & Bounties:
We’ve created a token to incentivize contributions to our open source wallets by issuing bounties on GitHub. We now have 6 outside contributors who have completed or are currently working on bounties in exchange for our PTS token. A great example of this can be seen on our android wallet github page:

TouchID & FaceID (iOS):
You can now log in to your mobile wallet using touchID or faceID rather than using your 4 digit PIN to access your account. This new feature will help make the experience of using our iOS wallet faster and easier.
Peer to Peer Wallet (Beta Concept):
We started developing a Beta version of a peer to peer wallet. The concept allows you to create your own token as an IOU (ex: YourName-XLM). Users can then add each other as peers by scanning their QR code, which contains their IOU asset code and address. A trust line is then established to each others IOU token. Users can then set a credit limit of how much XLM they trust their peer to borrow. This creates an offer exchanging XLM for their peer's IOU. Once users have set a credit limit they can each borrow from each other and pay back by trading the IOU token with XLM. This concept is a Beta version but allows users to keep track of debts and pay them back using trades on the SDEX. Since it is a beta version, we have opened a testflight typeform on which you can submit your email address to get access to the build:
