A quick duckduckgo for "Open Bitcoin Wallet" returns "bitcoinwallet.com", which seems very sketchy, and other irrelevant results.
I can't even find OBW except from your links.
Even searching for "open bitcoin wallet github", doesn't find this OBW project.
You can only find it with "OBW wallet" and even then, it's not the first hit, which is very risky for newcomers...
If the team behind open bitcoin wallet wants their software to be adopted, they have to change the name.
You are right about the actual situation.
As pointed in the suggestions a little SEO/visibility tuning could help a lot, a full rebrand is not necessary imho.

SEO is for lazy people

I'm not talking about be a SEO/Google slavery, but about valorizing the work studying the user behaviour and applying basic metadata / brands / semantic / accessibility / usability rules that are useful in a lot of contexts, not only the "main" search engines ones.
Not puting "OBW" on an H1 in the github page or on the app name in the Play Store is simply a missing opportunity without any benefit, so formally an error.
On this point of view SEO is for smart people that think about a tool and use it properly for a better finality.
All these, IMHO.

OBW is already on play store. Only that google like to promote first shitcoin apps. Did you scroll down a bit and see that is there?
The whole SEO is a fucking mafia...

It is on the play store but it is not findable at all for "OBW". Post a screenshot if is different for you, perhaps the algorithm is language sensible.
Did you scroll down a bit and see that is there?
Yes, till the end :)
The whole SEO is a fucking mafia...
It seems a bit toxic approach, isn't?
Why don't take the better part and go on?
Let's talk about accessibility, SEO should follow as natural effect.

You should stop googling and ducking... and go for verified sources:
- fiatjaf twitter and github https://twitter.com/fiatjaf
- Zebedee and NBD twitter and github - https://nbd.wtf/
- my bitcoin guides substack where I wrote an extensive guide about OBW
But yes, if you are living only in "crapto world" you will never hear about these amazing developments and you just google it.
