BuhoGo Release Notes v1.9.1

BuhoGO v1.9.1 makes your card simpler and more useful from the moment you create it. You can now receive payments immediately, share a complete profile page, and manage your card through a cleaner, more focused experience. The release also improves recovery clarity, dark mode, navigation, translations, and overall reliability.

Highlights#

  • Get paid from the first minute. Every card now has its own Lightning address.

  • Your identity is now a card. Tap it to show your QR code or tap your photo to switch cards.

  • Three simple actions: Share, Get paid, and Sign in.

  • Clear recovery phrases. Card words and wallet words are shown separately with their own backup status.

  • Share a page instead of a code. Anyone can pay you or save your card, even without BuhoGO.

Get Paid Without Setup#

  • Every new card automatically receives a Lightning address.

  • Payments sent to your name arrive in your Social Bucket.

  • Use Move to transfer the balance from your Social Bucket to a wallet.

  • You can still connect your own Lightning address. BuhoGO will never replace an address you selected.

UI/UX Improvements#

  • Redesigned the card page for new, partially configured, and fully configured cards.

  • Replaced technical terms with simple, user-friendly language.

  • Renamed identity consistently to card throughout the app.

  • Simplified username management and added username history.

  • Added friendlier default usernames, such as sunnydeer or boldjaguar.

  • Moved card switching directly onto your card and into Manage your card.

  • Improved the erase confirmation to clearly show what will be lost.

  • Advanced keys are now hidden by default and can be copied or revealed when needed.

  • Improved buttons, warnings, and text readability in dark mode.

  • Fixed Save failing without an error message when a card could not be reached.

  • Fixed the wallet recovery card becoming unresponsive after the words were saved.
