Very nice, easy to use wallet but you can't swap between onchain and lightning or liquid in the wallet. What's the point of having all three if you can't swap.
iirc
You can always swap ⛓️🔁💧 there (it uses Sideswap). You can also swap ⚡🔁💧 there (it uses Boltz). What's lacking is only swap feature ⛓️🔁⚡ but that is because it does not have an actual LN capability under the hood

You read it incorrectly lmao
🔁 : 2 way swap
◀️/▶️ : one way swap
You can always swap onchain to liquid to onchain again (it uses Sideswap). It also swap LN to liquid (by default) but later it can spend your LBTC as LN sats by using Boltz. I'm not steelmanning any Liquid related stuff anymore btw
It has native support for Onchain & Liquid
See this post which i also used the same logic

Boltz is great for swapping.
Side swap for liquid to bitcoin and vice versa
reply
You're right my bad. I think I assumed there was no swap functionality at all because when I first downloaded it I thought it would be a great wallet for onchain to lightning swaps but I wasn't able to do that. I recall sending some L-BTC to it from my green wallet but never tried the lightning to liquid functionality. I will look into it further.
Hopefully in the future it has onchain to lightning.

I'd imagine they'll have that functionality eventually. It seems like that isn't easy to implement. I remember there being a lot of criticisms of how Muun attempted to do it.

We finally launched Chain Swaps (Liquid <> Mainchain) today ✌️

Not managing a lightning channel sounds appealing especially for a novice
Swapping between liquid and bitcoin in Aqua wallet doesn’t exist in iOS. Apple Store shenanigans after the latest update.
