#askNostr is there no way to connect an alternate wallet to nostr:nprofile1qyx8wumn8ghj7cnjvghxjmcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqz8nhwden5te0dehhxarj94c82c3wwajkcmr0wfjx2u3wdejhgtcpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qyf8wumn8ghj7mmxve3ksctfdch8qatzqythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnrw4e8yetwwshxv7tfqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfskueqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgcwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8xmn0wf6zuum0vd5kzmqqypfjmqcdllsfcyl8t693ghyz2uv0cy4sqqlkr4s7jpmhy8rll7fuk34pfty ? It seems like users are forced to use their wallet, or is there a way I am missing??? #zaps
That's pretty frustrating if it's the case. 👎 dealbreaker for me

You can on Android but not iOS. App Store policy. Your receive address can be whatever you want.
Thanks, damn that's annoying. On Damus, at least I can select an external wallet to zap with, also on iOS
Same, I use Damus myself, always have. But was trying to onboard a new nostrich today and finding it frustratingly difficult to get them set up. Primal has easiest onboarding, but then you are locked to their wallet. I tried to set them up with Coinos wallet on Damus, but I can figure out how to select Coinos as the default zap wallet on Damus. WOS no longer available to new users in US so that seems to be out too...
That’s because Damus doesn’t have a built-in wallet and they were forced to disable note zaps to get approved. Primal took a different approach where they give Apple their 30% cut on bitcoin purchases so they were allowed to keep the feature. (At least that’s my understanding.) On Android you can just connect an NWC wallet.
This may be the best way atm. ⚡ Trying to onboard a total newbie so was looking for something simple, hence WOS or Coinos seemed first choices. Was hoping to abstract away the channel setup etc.
Yeah I thought there was an NWC connect somewhere, but couldn't find it, so was confused. I feel like Primal is really ruining the whole 'interoperability' thing with a lot of their design choices. This is just one of them. In this case, there seems to be no simple solution for a new user to use a single wallet or app to send and receive zaps from both/either primal and damus. Sad!
How did you manage to set up damus + Coinos though? I don't have Coinos in the dropdown Wallet Selector list.
Right, we've updated their receiving zap address to their new Coinos wallet LN address, but Coinos isn't in the dropdown list under Zaps wallet selector.
I put the blame mostly on Apple. Developers are trying different things. The bigger problem is LN wallets are still confusing for most new users. Maybe Cashu proofs stored on relays will solve this eventually.
Idk, I'm obviously doing something wrong or missing something ridiculously simple lol! 😆
Yes, that I have done 🤙
Agreed! But I don't consider myself a new users and now realizing I literally have no idea how to onboard someone from scratch and get them set up with a simple but functional way to zap. 🤔
Yeah, it’s messy. Damus + Coinos isn’t a terrible way to start as long as you explain the custodial risk.
Yeah I have the NWC connection string from Coinos, but when I go in Damus -> Settings -> Zaps, I can see 'Select default wallet' to send zaps from but Coinos is not in the list. So where do I paste the NWC string?
Thanks for the reply! 🤙 Would be great to use NWC on iOS too, please keep it in mind to try and find a way around those restrictions 🙏
Tried that too, but can't seem to connect. I believe we've likely hit a bug, since the buttons are cut off the bottom of the screen...
Thanks for the tips 🙏 will keep playing with it
OK, finally managed to get Damus connected via NWC to Coinos, but in another twist it seems that Coinos can not zap any primal addresses 🥴 “error retrieving lightning invoice”
