How It Works:
#1 Q: How does the Bitkey application work as a cold wallet.
A: Bitkey has no app server. All your data(bitcoin address and private keys) is saved locally, and backup in your own iCloud document.
And, the data backup in your iCloud document is encrypted by your password. Actually, the raw bitcoin private key just temporary exists in your device memory (RAM). (When you use the key to sign a transaction locally). So with the excellent iOS sandbox isolation mechanisms we can define Bitkey app as a cold wallet.
#2 Q: How can I withdraw my funds?
A: It's a cold wallet, you just use it to keep your bitcoin keys safe from stolen or lost. The concept “withdraw my funds” usually be used in the context of “hot wallet/website” or “bitcoin market website”.
# 3 Q: How can I add money to my account?
A: It's a cold wallet, you just can import bitcoin private keys to the app.The concept “added money to the account” usually be used in the context of “hot wallet/website” or “bitcoin market website”.
#4 Q: How can I make a transaction / pay?
A: Bitkey provide “transaction sign tool”, you can use the tool to sign a transaction locally and then broadcast it to the bitcoin network.
Notes:
1. At the first launch of the app, You should allow the app to use your iCloud.
2. At the first time you launch the app, You should set up your encrypt password to protect the data.
3. Then every time you launch the app you need enter the password to decrypt your data.
WARNING:
Your encrypt password will never stored on your device or upload to iCloud. It just temporary exists in memory to decrypt data after you enter them. Without the password there is no way to decrypt your data. So when you set or reset the password you may should always provide some appropriate password hint. The password hint will be backup and uploaded to iCloud.

“Your keys, your bitcoin. Not your keys, not your bitcoin.” Bitkey`s self-storage and data backup solution is very useful. The interface is super simple too and there is no other messy features. I use this app as my usual wallet.
Simple and clear address list, I can find and view my keys. All the wallet data is encrypted and synced using my iCloud I can see the key pair document . The pure wallet design let me can use this app even there is no internet connection.
If you know what you’re doing, this app can be a life saver :)
Easy to use, simple, clean interface and full control over your wallet. That is all I wanted!
Simple interface but advanced architecture inside. The mempool chart and fee tools are also very helpful.
I installed app, put $$ in now it won't let me withdraw funds....it only lets you add funds app kicks you out if you try and withdraw it kicks you out if you try and scan anything
I am still trying to withdraw the $3000 I saved in bitkey. After I added money to the account , I have not been able to withdraw it. It just creates incomplete transactions and even though transactions have been canceled at the receiver end it's not canceled at my end and my money is still stuck and even worse is. Now
I tried to use this wallet. I really wanted to like it since it seemed simple. But it's completely useless. 1. After the QR doesn't read properly and parse your left with having to do things manually. 2. They claim to only want .0001 BTC per transaction, but if you try and send balance of wallet to another address and leave the transaction fee.. it won't allow you. So you have no idea what the app or developer is keeping. It's. A complete fail. 3. Once you sign the transaction you the. Must submit it yourself to the network. Really? That's not simple and what are they keeping the fee for. Don't use this app. Even with the last update all the problems still exist. Really unhappy with it.
