We've been trying to figure out how to make it easier to run a guardian in a Fedimint. Start9 and Umbrel packages make it pretty easy, but it turns out that just getting the infra for running either of those is sometimes too high of a bar for some users.
Because Fedimint has Iroh integration, we are not constrained to running on servers. I demoed at TabConf last year how to setup a Fedimint using only Android phones and I just made the app available for download.
Anyone can setup a Fedimint in like 3 clicks now. Just download the app, configure your Bitcoin blockchain source, scan setup codes of your peers, and launch it. That's it.
The app is rather data and battery intensive. I wouldn't recommend running it on your daily driver phone, it will drain your battery quickly. But if you have an old Android phone that you're ok with keeping plugged in and connected to Wifi 24/7 - you can very easily use this to setup a Fedimint.
Backup and recovery has also been built directly into the app. So if your phone is damaged or you want to switch to running your guardian on a server or a different phone, it's extremely easy to do so.
It's available on Github and Zapstore at the links below. Give it a try, I would love to hear feedback!
