@primal keeps delivering, you you can hate them as much as you want, but they listen to their users and build stuff people are really looking for. Really thankful to have them around, they will make #nostr accessible to everyone ๐

primal's remote signer is the kind of survival upgrade i respect, turning nsec bunkers into mobile armor while the rest of us were still burning sats on $3 servers. this is how you win 2026: build the hard stuff first, let everyone else catch up.
Which app did you try to sign into, and which Primal signer app did you use (iOS or Android)?
Android on desktop (Brave).
Thanks; we'll try to reproduce it!
Primal on desktop.
Primal 2.6 is sick ๐ซโจ
Okay, this is dope as fuck. No more extensions.

Or, I can use my private key and use zero third parties.
Since update mine is crashing every 5-15 seconds of use, had to send this from Damus as couldnโt keep App open long enough. Using iOS.
Nice, works well for me!
We got some crash reports from another user too, but we canโt seem to reproduce the issue yet. Someone will reach out to get more info.
Hey
@Bitcoin Awareness did you download your Android app using zapstore?
Hey
@Garth is there any specific actions that are making the app crash? Or does it happen randomly?
Seems to be random, has happened scrolling feed, watching video, trying to reply to Miljan etc
And strangely now Iโm trying my best itโs not crashing ๐คท wouldnโt last more than 15 seconds previously
This pretty fucking cool. I like to switch between different apps to see what new features have been added.
Does @primal need to keep running in the background? I mean, I practically have it open 24/7โฆ
The Facebookers and Xitters will be here in 2026. It's getting so easy.
View quoted note โYestr
Is it just me, but I can't install primal through zapstore, the install button just stays gray
Please let me know if you manage to make the crash happen again.
Amazing to see Nip-46 gaining traction! Good job
@primal
View quoted note โCool! It should work with
@referralstrRemote signer supported! Try it out
View quoted note โNo. And after the update feeds are hardly loading.
Cool! So I can use @primal as a remote signer. Can we now sign into Primal iOS app without pasting an nsec?
Does my app need to use the primal relay to use this? Working on adding support and just curious.
You can use any relay. Simply implement NIP-46 to login into your app.
Nice job! Looks great, can't wait to see how you compete with Amber.
In case you live under a rock and somehow missed this. Primal now works as a remote signer allowing you to use it to sign into other nostr apps ๐คฉ๐
View quoted note โSo this is an alternative to Nostash? As I understand it.
View quoted note โWanna try ๐
connection works great but i can't disconnect, sessions are recreated automatically.. tried with primal.net and coracle.social same behaviour, i'm on Android 16
Awesome ๐
I hope that fixes my storage space that I paid for it... ๐คจ

Smooooth

@miljan and the
@primal team.
View quoted note โDoes that mean I can use my remote signer to log into primal too, or do I still have to give you my key?
The ambient background music hack is wild!
This! โก๏ธ
When will this be shipped to Android?
Looking great ๐ฅ
We shipped the remote signer for both iOS and Android yesterday.
Well-done ๐ค
Sorry about this, there is an auto connect switch but it is not working in this version, will work in the hotfix
Congrats! I've been waiting for it ๐๐๐
Incredible work, very smooth experience. I think it'll still be hard to recommend that people download an unrelated social media app in order to sign in to the one they actually want to use, but for people who already use primal this is great.
I've aleays used Alby (Web Browser) or Amber (Android), but never had to use the nsec bunker option.
this is awesome! For some reason though, I have trouble with the wallet in Primal when trying to onboard new people. Anyone else experience this?
I think itโs fair to say that we broke new ground with our iOS remote signer. People have been trying to build something like this for a long time (even predating Nostr) and afaik all those attempts have been shut down by Apple. Some of our well informed users are concerned that our implementation breaks Appleโs rules and that Primal might get banned from the App Store. Iโll share our experience here so that other builders can benefit from it.
First and foremost: we didnโt try to sneak this feature in. We provided a detailed explanation to the app store review team outlining exactly what we are doing and how. The technical tldr is: the only way to keep your iOS app running in the background is to play sound or dox user location. There is a history of developers trying to hack their way in by playing silent audio tracks or attempting to trick the reviewers (and confuse the users) in other ways.
The key to our success was that we actually built a polished ambient sound feature for our signer. Some users might actually want ambient sound for their remote sessions, so we took great care to pick the appropriate sounds and build polished UI that enables users to control those sounds via the dynamic island or the live activity UI on the lock screen. We also designed an informative sound opt in screen at the beginning of the session. This is important: the user is fully informed and totally in control every step of the way. I am not sure, but it might be helpful that Primal was already a multimedia app so this feature doesnโt feel out of place.
In any case, thatโs how we did it; hope it helps other builders. ๐ซก
View quoted note โEmail not going through?
This worked perfectly for me just now logging in on updated Linux Mint Thinkpad. No retrieving, copy pasting nsec, no browser extension required. Superb feature addition.
View quoted note โClients are like hot wallets and bunkers are like hardware wallets. We need clients to support secure bunkers, not be insecure bunkers
I have a not well thought out idea that there needs to be a Zapstore-like mobile app where itโs your one-stop shop for onboarding to Nostr, secure key storage and profile management, signer, and Nostr App Store. It would be an entry point to all things Nostr but you would need to download micro apps through the app store to access specific functionality.
I have that exact same not well thought out idea
love it. make it happen.
Thatโs what will keep away the majority of people not to use nostr because itโs โovercomplicatedโ and you have to have tons of apps on your phone
Great work! We've added remote signer as an authentication method to Satsback.com today.
Great work from team
@primal!
We've added remote signer as an authentication method to Satsback.com today.
View quoted note โI don't think so, it's just when I try and pay it says 'can't pay non zero invoice'. I will try again with someone else and see if it does it again
See if you can get a screenshot or screen recoding . Thanks for the feedback!
Will do!
To be fair: a signer app isn't mandatory for new users nor for people just trying out different apps around NOSTR.
People use it when they have different tools that they enjoy and want to reuse their account on it.
In fact would argue that NOSTR apps tend to be easiest ones to start using. Identifies are generated immediately and starts using the app right away.
Best Nostr update in a while. ๐
View quoted note โIs the iOS remote signer going to be open source?
Thinking outside of the box to stay in the box ๐
Beautifully captured! โก I've just posted a video about our hard work in the rice fields. If you love nature and real stories, please check out my profile. A little support from you could change my journey! ๐โก"
Be careful,
@paul keating, your tank top is in root mode.
Will you also offer NIP-46 login for the Primal app?
Yes, it's already open source
Nice! Geat idea! ๐
got a glimpse of it when
@paul keating showed it to me when in
@Bitcoin Jungle. just used it to login to the web app. still don't get it technically why it needs to play a sound while using it. any idea? #asknostr

on iOS if my wallet is via NWC (like Rizful) the Primal app crashes a few seconds after when I open the wallet.
sorry my bad, I messed up with the NWC codes. Keep going!
yep!
Thank you, great work!

Great work guys
Exactly what I would want from a top client
Comp for
@Alby which is always healthy
On an Android device the remote signer "Connect" button was not visible.
The device Display Size was set to to "Large". I set it to "Medium" and the button is now visable. I'm sure others will have the same issue so hope is an easy fix ๐
My last reply could be the same issue? "Connect" button was not visible on Android device. Changed device Display Size from "Large" to "Medium" and button is visible.

View quoted note โiPad version soon?
Itโs happening again, loads up and I can use it for about 10 seconds and then it crashes. Doesnโt seem to matter what I do, same result. Iโm on iOS 26.3, could that be part of it?
Also while Iโm at it
@Fountain is crashing every time I try load it
@Oscar Merry@Garth are you on the latest version 1.4.6?
Thanks for reporting. This is very much on our radar. Next iOS build will include some fixes that should address the issue. Btw no, we don't think this is related to your iOS version.
Thank you for your patience sir; we are aiming to ship the new build by mid next week.
Yes 1.4.6 (1710)
We just shipped an iOS update (build 2.6.42) which should be more solid all around and address these intermittent crashes that were affecting some of our users.
Please upgrade and let us know if you run into any further issues.
please implement the feature that Nostur has: the feed remembers where you where last time you used the app so you can scroll up to the new posts chronologically starting from where you left instead of being presented with the last post and going down from newer to olderโฆ it should not be very difficultโฆ
Thanks, we are planning to revamp our feeds in the coming weeks.
So far so good ๐
I had to roll back to 1.4.5
I installed Primal via zapstore, zap store says I have version 2.6 but when I load the app in settings it says 2.5. since zapstore thinks I'm up to date how do I get the new version with signer?
@franzap maybe something to look into?
@Jimble's Jumble you can download Primal directly from Google Playstore or get our apk builds from our GitHub : PrimalHQ
thanks!
