New release of eclair incoming! https://github.com/ACINQ/eclair-mobile/releases/tag/v0.3.19-MAINNET
TL;DR this is a transitional release with quite some performance improvements, faster startup time, faster route computation and better background sync. Soon on the play store.

So, LN "short_channel_id" is a very underrated feature, it looks like `556877x862x1` and you can tell the block_height, tx_index and out_index! Think of it as a new transaction ID format..but only for confirmed transaction(outputs) and it's visually communicative as well: you can tell if a one is older than another just by comparing the block_height. 8 bytes index of something unique.
