Allow a way to set a budget and disable browser notifications within the app.

When sending a boost to multiple recipients, multiple approvals will pop up, and multiple notifications will pop up. This can be disabled in the Alby settings by unclicking the Notification radio, and by setting a budget. It would be nice if an app could build their own UI/UX to disable notifications and set a budget within the app with out having to create a walk through that shows the user how to do it with in the Alby browser extension.

Get current balance or budget when using WebLN

When using the Alby API, there's an endpoint to get the user's balance. When using the web extension, you can see the current balance by clicking the Alby icon in the browser bar. For an app that is using WebLN, it would be nice to have a way to display the current balance, or even better the current budget, within the app. This way, when a user is streaming sats to a service, or sending a boost, they can see how many sats they have left in their budget without having to click the Alby icon.

Provide export of transactions

It would be useful for tax reports to be able to create an export with all transaction for a given period with: settle date, amount in sats, incoming/outgoing

Please Add a $USD/CountryCurrency option in addition to Sats amount to pay/receive on pay/receive pages

for example on https://getalby.com/p/alby please add a currency value option that converts to current sats value in addition to the current sats amount that shows currency value to be sent/received

Log of nostr signatures

I'd like to have a full log of all notes signed with the nostr key(s). With an indicator whether it was auto signed or approved manually, and preferably some filters.

Full payment history in extension tab
🗓️ Planned

At the moment the transaction history is only available in the popup from the toolbar button. A bigger and better version should be on the extension tab too.

V4V missing engagements

Hey,

I often check the incoming payments I get from V4V podcasting. There is a limited list available of incoming payments. That is mostly clogged up with small Sat payments that get streamed every minute or whatever. Is there a way to aggregate those? My issue is that the feed gets filled with those small payments and I miss boosts, or messages or other more important engagements.

Best

Integrate web dashboard / NIP-05 identifier into the extension

It took me some time to setup the alby NIP-05 identifier, because I didn't know that Alby was offering it, and also didn't know that I need to go to the web dashboard and won't find it in the extension settings.

Therefore please merge the dashboard into the extension.

Thank you, as always, for this great extension!

Unify incoming / outgoing transaction history
🗓️ Planned

Currently I have to switch between incoming and outgoing to see all of my transaction history.
Can we please merge incoming and outgoing transactions in one list?
This is the default UX in all other apps.

Thanks very much for all your efforts!

PIN access

To open the Alby browser extension, I have to type in my password every time. (It is a complex password that I have to retrieve from my password manager.)

I suggest users should be able to access the extension by entering a PIN, rather than their password.

It will make it much easier for me to open the extension quickly, and as a result, I'll use it more often.

Attached a screenshot of the Strike extension that already supports PIN login access.

Comment everything

FR: Can Alby leverage nostr and give users the possibility to comment any website/webpage on the internet?

1 sat per text post
10 sats per image post or text post with URL

Show users the comments added to the current page they are currently on and give them the ability to up/downvote or flag comments

Thank you

Split payments automatically for getalby.com lightning addresses

"Lets say we are streaming a podcast live with 2 people is there a way where we can receive a payment with @getAlby and the payment gets split to two different addresses"

Separate state for different accounts

In the extension, if you switch accounts, the view doesn't change (transaction list is shown).

If you try to transfer from one account to another and create an invoice on the first account, it'll still show that view (waiting for payment) when you switch to the other account. So when you switch to pay invoice, the previous view is lost

Reload state after switching tabs and back

Currently when you switch tabs, the alby extension closes and when you switch back, you need to re-open the extension window which does not restore the previous state. For example, if you had an unpaid invoice open, it'll be lost forever and you'll need to create a new one.

Transfer sats between accounts

Is there an easy way to transfer sats between accounts? or do you need to create an invoice on one, switch to the other tab and pay it?

referral link

Hey guys, the thing I would like to see in the upcoming update, is the ability to send someone a referral link to know about Alby, and let this user download and start using this amazing wallet

Clickable Account Name for LN address

ie: my ln address is peanutbutterife@getaby.com because the length of this name is longer than the view I have to open the accounts page in settings. It may be helpful if I could copy it in the initial dropdown. This may be an edge case but is a speed bump in my UX.

Multiple Accounts need more Visibility

Hi,

Presently I have two LNbits accounts accessed via Alby.

I would change their names, but Alby gives me no information about which accounts or servers they are from.

Pay YouTubers without a Lightning Address

Shall we allow users to pay YouTube channels without a Lightning Address.
We could hold the funds in escrow until they are claimed by the Channel owner.

Recurring payments to a Lightning address

Similiar to how Patreon is used. e.g., I want to send $x per month to the Lightning address showing in the creator's Youtube profile (or in the description of one of the creator's videos).

I would want to be able to choose the currency unit for the amount though ... e.g., BTC or USD, and if USD, then Alby uses the conversion rate at the time payment is to be sent to know how much to send.

Take a fee if you want. Patreon takes from 5% to 12%), which is insane, but that's the competition so plenty of room to find find a level to make it worth adding this.

The only problem I might have is that if my sats balance on Alby is not enough at the time the payment would be triggered, I'ld hope to get an e-mail reminder to top up.

Tracking payment volumes

Any chance to Alby collect info from alby users (optional) of which sites alby users did lightning address payments?
