Lightning Address to Invoice

Allows paying to email-like Lightning addresses from unsupported wallets
New in version 1.4.0
Added:
- "Send sats" system text selection action
- An introduction explaining how to use the app
- Ability to paste an address into the app either from the intro screen or using the launcher icon shortcut

Changed:
- When an invoice is accidentally opened with the app instead of an address, the app now forwards it to your wallet(s) rather than just showing an error message
Some popular Bitcoin Lightning wallets, like Muun, don't support email-like Lightning addresses.
This app allows paying to such addresses by turning them to convenient invoices.
It doesn't add any extra fee to your payment.

This utility is launched when you interact with addresses in your browser or other apps. Here's how it is done:

Clicking an address
Sometimes, a Lightning address is a clickable link, just like an email. When you click it, LN Address to Invoice appears.

Selecting an address
Often a Lightning address is just a text. In this case, select it and in the appeared system menu look for the "Send sats" action.

Copy-pasting an address
If you see a Lightning address which is neither clickable nor selectable, or the presenting app doesn't support selection actions, just copy the address from there and paste into LN Address to Invoice with the Paste button in the header of the intro screen, or with the "Paste address" launcher icon shortcut.
