Advanced features
Power-user controls without the power-user complexity. Custom fees, RBF, UTXO selection, watch-only mode, address-type management — all off-by-default, all one tap away when you need them.
Lite Wallet includes a set of advanced features for power users: custom fee tiers with manual sat/byte control, Replace-By-Fee (RBF) for stuck transactions, UTXO selection (coin control) for privacy and fee optimization, multiple Litecoin address types (legacy P2PKH, SegWit P2SH, native SegWit bech32, MWEB), watch-only wallet mode for cold-storage monitoring, dust filtering, and export of transaction history in CSV. These features are off-by-default and discoverable in Settings → Advanced — the default user flow stays simple.
Custom fee tiers
Go beyond Economy/Standard/Priority presets. Type the exact sat/byte rate for your transaction. Lite Wallet estimates the confirmation window based on current mempool conditions — useful when Litecoin fees briefly spike and defaults overpay.
Replace-By-Fee (RBF)
Flag transactions as RBF when sending. If a transaction gets stuck with a low fee, replace it with a higher-fee version that invalidates the original and confirms faster. Works on standard-ledger Litecoin transactions.
UTXO selection (coin control)
Pick exactly which inputs to spend. Useful for privacy (avoid combining UTXOs from different sources) and fee optimization (spend smaller UTXOs first to consolidate). Shows UTXO count, amount, address, and confirmations for each.
All address types
Generate legacy P2PKH (L-prefix), SegWit P2SH (M-prefix), native SegWit bech32 (ltc1-prefix), and MWEB addresses. Send to any type. Lite Wallet auto-detects address format and warns if a recipient address type is deprecated or unusual.
Watch-only wallets
Import an xpub or extended public key to monitor a wallet's balance and transactions without holding its private keys. Ideal for cold-storage setups — your hardware wallet stays offline, Lite Wallet shows you what's happening.
CSV export
Export your full transaction history — date, amount, counterparty address, fee, confirmations, MWEB flag — as a CSV for tax reporting or record-keeping. Works on all platforms.
RBF in detail
Replace-By-Fee lets you replace an unconfirmed transaction with a new version that has a higher fee. The original transaction is invalidated when a miner picks up the replacement. In practice: you send 0.1 LTC with a low fee; the network is briefly busy and your transaction sits unconfirmed; you open the transaction in Lite Wallet, tap 'Bump fee', enter a higher sat/byte rate, and re-sign. Within minutes, the new transaction confirms. RBF must be enabled when you first send the transaction — it can't be retroactively applied. Lite Wallet defaults RBF on for standard-ledger sends; you can disable per-transaction if the recipient is a merchant that rejects RBF-flagged transactions.
UTXO / coin control
Litecoin uses the UTXO (Unspent Transaction Output) model — your balance is actually a collection of discrete UTXOs from past incoming transactions. When you send, the wallet picks UTXOs to cover the amount. By default Lite Wallet picks automatically, prioritizing fewer UTXOs and lower fees. Coin control lets you override: select specific UTXOs to spend and specific ones to leave alone. Privacy use: avoid combining a UTXO from KYC exchange A with a UTXO from anonymous source B in the same transaction — that combination publicly links the two. Fee use: spend small dust UTXOs together to consolidate before fees rise. Tax use: spend the UTXO with the lowest cost basis to match your tax-lot accounting strategy.
