 Overview of the functions of the Mycelium Wallet:

"Mycelium" is a company (network project), which started functioning about 10 years ago. One of the development directions was the construction of a data transmission system based on Bitcoin technology, which led to the emergence of many different products. One of the most convenient services for making money transfers was in 2012 a mobile Bitcoin Wallet. It should be noted that it was recommended by the Bitcoin community as one of the most functional and reliable. There is only a mobile version, compatible with the operating systems iOS and Android. The user is offered the following options: 

• Quick installation of the application without the need to download the entire block. This saves memory and speeds up the download process.
• Connection via special super-nodes to the Bitcoin network, which are located in different data centers, which also positively affects the speed.
• The current balance is displayed in 164 varieties of fiat currencies, while the system determines the most profitable offers and their territorial affiliation.
• There is an address book where the most frequently used ones are collected, which makes it much easier to find the address you need.
• You can view the complete history of transactions that have been completed with a detailed description of each transaction.
• There is a built-in QR-code scanner, and private keys are exported to the device memory in the form of these codes or PDF-files (encrypted).

Security
Protection against fraud is carried out through special private keys that are stored in the memory of the mobile device. This database is located in a protected area, access to which other applications installed on the phone is excluded. Additionally, you can create a pin code, which increases the degree of security. Exporting keys takes place in an encrypted form (as PDF files or QR codes). In order to increase the level of confidentiality, a new address is created for each transaction that is being executed, where all changes are sent.

A payment protocol such as BIP70 is supported, which makes the procedure of communication between users entering into transactions as secure as possible. After making a purchasing decision, the seller sends a payment requisition with all the conditions of the order. Forms and notification of receipt, which guarantees additional protection of the transaction.
