LoafWallet is the best way to get started with Litecoin. Our simple, streamlined design is easy for beginners, yet powerful enough for experienced users. This is a port of the LoafWallet for iOS app which can be found here: https://github.com/litecoin-foundation/loafwallet-ios
Unlike other iOS Litecoin wallets, LoafWallet is a standalone Litecoin client. It connects directly to the Litecoin network using SPV mode, and doesn't rely on servers that can be hacked or disabled. Even if LoafWallet is removed from the App Store, the app will continue to function, allowing users to access their money at any time.
LoafWallet utilizes AES hardware encryption, app sandboxing, and the latest iOS security features to protect users from malware, browser security holes, and even physical theft. Private keys are stored only in the secure enclave of the user's phone, inaccessible to anyone other than the user.
Simplicity and ease-of-use is LoafWallet's core design principle. A simple recovery phrase (which we call a paper key) is all that is needed to restore the user's wallet if they ever lose or replace their device. LoafWallet is deterministic, which means the user's balance and transaction history can be recovered just from the paper key.
