Features

reusable, non-expiring payment requests
contact list (Android for now, iOS soon)
attach messages to payments

This marks a new step forward in Lightning UX. No need to generate a new QR code for every payment. No need for payer/receiver to interact.

Phoenix Android (soon iOS) also supports contacts. Send money with a click, and associate payments to your known contacts.

Phoenix is solid! And in some ways it's good that it's not in the US AppStore, because it pushes people to :

install it directly from acinq or from alternative store (e.g. https://zap.store/ or https://obtainium.imranr.dev/ )
use more private/open OS like GrapheneOS
travel more outside of US :)

So cool, from their GitHub, I was definitely not expecting BOLT12 support so soon. Gonna have to try it ASAP.

I suppose now we can head to https://twelve.cash, create a lightning address and call it a day.

I feel like Bolt12 on Phoenix could almost replace BTC Payserver. Just a static QR code for payment then then some kind of REST request to Phoenix if it has been payed?

Bullish! I saw Zeus's announcement recently as well. Exciting stuff!

Are we all going back to using Phoenix in the US?

We never left. It’s nonsensical to stop using Phoenix because of a simple removal from an App Store. That’s the extent of their change… Phoenix never stopped working. This isn’t a follow the mob group of people, I hope. If it works (allows you to make tx) then it works. Do you not them
