Uniswap has announced the launch of a beta version of their wallet application on Android, previously only available on PC and iOS mobile devices.
“We’re excited to bring Uniswap to everyone’s pocket with the release of Uniswap on Android. Uniswap first launched on iOS in April and in less than a month became a top 3 wallet for new downloads. Now, we’re bringing a simpler and safer way to swap on the go to Android users. Sign up for the Beta here.”

The decentralized exchange (DEX) which has processed over $1.7 trillion since inception has had increasing success despite the crypto winter. For instance, Uniswap’s spot trading volume surpassed Coinbase in the first quarter of 2023, the first time in history.
Here are some of the interesting features available on the Uniswap Android beta app:
- According to Uniswap, its Android adaptation is built to enable discovering top tokens, automatically switching between Mainnet and L2s, and swapping in a fraction of a second.
- The Android beta app enables users to choose coins on various blockchain networks without needing to manually switch networks. The app automatically identifies the network a specific coin is on and switches to that network seamlessly, eliminating the need for user intervention.
- Currently, it supports Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and BNB Chain, with plans to expand compatibility to more blockchain networks in the future.
- The wallet has a feature that routes Ethereum transactions through a private pool to mitigate front-running and sandwich attacks. However, users have the option to disable this feature if they prefer.
- Additionally, the wallet automatically identifies most coins with built-in transfer fees and displays these fees within the interface to inform users about the associated costs.
The announcement included a sign-up link for an email waitlist, which will be used to distribute copies of the app to early adopters. Furthermore, the team intends to make the app’s open-source code available in the coming weeks as a part of its security audit, which will be conducted by Trail of Bits.
