No footer once a wallet is open, no empty history, no default name on a lone balance. "Actually those can go into settings too. And let's not show an empty history section just keep it hidden until we have history. I don't think we need the spending account name by default let's leave it blank unless the user supplies one" (Adam, 2026-11-15). The language and currency pickers now sit at the top of the Settings hub; the footer under every page is gone while a wallet is open (a visitor reading the public feed, with no wallet and so no Settings, still has them there; the wizard keeps its language picker). The wallet's history shows nothing at all until there's a first payment, instead of a 'No transactions yet' card. A single-balance account (a sign-up's Spending) shows no SPENDING over its amount unless its owner named it; the two-face carousel keeps Spending/Savings. footer-support (no footer with a wallet, pickers in Settings, About), signup-quick (no name on the lone face), chat-layout, onboard-backup, balance-settings-row, feed-window-dom and features-smoke pass
