"Im so confused by the Alby Hub. How do i see what is in the main hub wallet. It shows me everything in every wallet. So when I top up XYZ's Isolated wallet it just puts it right back in my hub wallet. Is there some balance that is actually only associated with the main hub wallet? I feel like the hub should not be it's own wallet it is very confusing."
Casually I was clicking around to see the features and landed on the backup. That I did on the first time. I don't know why, I decide to check the words, and found out that I put one of the words out of the correct sequence.
My fault, but...
I'm aware of the issues, and use a password manager, with a backup strategy.
In order copy the words to the password manager, I need to select, copy and paste one by one. Somewhere during this process, I selected a wrong one and paste out of sequence.
I understand, the reason of this, single selection is to force people to go one by one and not loose the key.
But, not sure is really better than allowing to select all and paste to a password manager, correctly.
The payment channels partners seem to have limits on how many sats can flow at once, and we need to be aware of those limits unless we'll all just going to use this for small amounts (zaps). If yes, then my Phoenix wallet will be a better use in my opinion.
Please let the channel partners increase the sat bandwidth for us.
Hide balances on
As a beginner user I don't know what should I put there
You can see the transaction details of funding channel opening, but closing is not there
One of the ideas of the hub is that I can have family accounts. They should be able to manage their own NWC connections for their nostr clients, lightningpiggy and so. Thank you :-)

Sorry, I am new to this, but I can't find a way to see how much money I've contributed to each V4V podcast.
Thanks
Friends&Familly is a great solution.
But we found one small problem
If something goes terribly wrong with Alby Hub , of course I get my funds back when channels are closed.
But balances who has how much are lost and I don't know how to distribute funds back.
The pricing page indicates "custom nostr addresses" are part of the Alby Hub subscription, presumably referring to NIP-05 addresses.
It would be pretty cool if Alby were able to provide custom npubs, using something like Rana to "grind-mine" a vanity npub for users who don't have the tech chops to do it on their own.
Definitely a "nice to have" rather than a necessity, but thought I'd drop the idea here, in case it's an easy lift.
I have automated backups set up already, but an export feature in the GUI for connection backups would be handy
It would be great if u can implement a way for us to see how much we spend on different categories like restaurants, groceries , transportation etc
Basically a way for us to budget and see how much we spend on what.
Also would be good if we can put a description on what we bought using Alby Go
or is there any way to convert btc/sats to usdt eaasily will be helpful
I just upvoted a request to delete failed payments, but it may be even better if we could filter those out of the default view.
Having additional filters would be cool. I've been playing around with BitKit and Envoy, which both let you "tag" a transaction. If we could also filter by tags (or by the payment note), amount, date range, etc., that would be a big value add.
I love the little informational popups you have over the balances. More of those, like in the app store, would be awesome.

Some form of ECash (Cashu) implementation. Maybe even minting.

Splitwise/SplitKitty app but with sats. For example: 3 people go on a trip - person A pays for accomodation, person B pays for car fuel, person C buys groceries at the shop. The one who makes each payment inputs the costs (and unequal distribution if needed) into the app, then the app calculates who owes who and settles it with sats (or just keeps score until triggered manually). If that could be done in an app that's available within Alby Hub, that would be awesome. Alby Split? :)

Add a chat bot to your page that can walk people through the various steps they need to complete with their node and how it relates to their goals
"make simple plugin system so community can build "friends and family" like apps."
I don't linke self custodial Lightning because the cost and risk to have a 1m sat channel for a bunch of little transactions is way too high. Cashu fixes this which is great that you implemented it.
Fedimint back end would be great. No struggle with expensive channels. I had 3 large >1m sat channels but still failed to send larger payments to my receiver, I want to outsource all of this annoyance to some custodian which should be a federation.
I would like to have a possibility to swap to onchain in Alby Hub. Today i buy Bitcoin, send it directly to Alby and when i haveat least 1 000 000 Sats, i Send it to Muun and then to my Hard wallet
I want to use specific channel for sending, maybe even for receiving (turn them off/on for a minute)
