[Feature Request / Bug] Allow adding tx keys to view-only wallets.
Personally I'd love an option to be able to track my hardware wallet via a view-only wallet on cake wallet.
" If your wallet has outgoing transactions, the balance displayed will not be correct. To get a correct balance in a view-only wallet, you have to import the accompanying key images of each output of the wallet." - getmonero .org/resources/user-guides/view_only.html
Cake Wallet "supports" view-only wallets
Yet it doesnt fully support it.
As far as I can tell - there's absolutely no way to import tx keys into the view-only wallet.
Therefore - as soon as the wallet being viewed sends a transaction - the balance is displayed incorrectly on the view-only wallet.
Mobile wallets are the most practical view-only wallet. I feel like a desktop view-only wallet sort of defeats the purpose for an individual. (unless its a business owner etc..)
It seems currently only the Monero GUI/CLI fully supports view-only wallets.
(Note - I'm assuming a 'tx key image' is the same thing as a 'tx key' - please correct me if I'm wrong.)
Steps To Reproduce -
-
Create a new wallet & send it 5 cents of XMR.
-
Restore the wallet as a 'view-only' wallet on another device via cake wallet / monero.com wallet (use the primary address + private view key + restore date)
-
Send the 5 cents of XMR to another wallet.
-
The 'view-only' wallet balance is incorrect.
Expected result - User should be able to add to the view-only wallet - the tx key of the incoming transaction (5 cents incoming) This would allow the 'view-only' wallet balance to be displayed correctly when the output is spent.
