Android has been affable to the decentralized apps or DAPPs from the very beginning. It served as a platform for dozens of Bitcoin and Blockchain based applications for over three years. But iOS users were initially devoid of all these applications for Apple ventured into this new stream a little too late. The first decentralized bitcoin wallet was introduced on iOS platform in September, 2014. It was the Breadwallet. Soon after that, we saw many other iOS versions of bitcoin wallets like Airbitz, Bither, GreenAddress and Copay. But Breadwallet by far remains one of the most popular bitcoin wallets on iOS App Store even today.
