Thank you for your comments! This have been brought up multiple occasions and we have pin code to give user extra layer of security and of course improvements constantly being discussed. Please feel free to make a suggestions. All keys are stored locally, never sent to servers and there is no way to access it unless you have malicious app installed on your phone.

I understand that the keys are stored locally.. yes, it's the mobile phone of the masses which I do not trust the integrity of. I do not believe this is an easy problem to solve, so, don't take this as criticism in the least! Y'all are doing a great job!
I guess my suggestion, if I have one, is perhaps to reverse the order of suggested keys when you first sign into the app, just make 'active' the default suggestion. If people have made it that far, they have already created an account and should be capable of pulling their 'active' key from the 'permissions' tab in the 'wallet' page. It's a little annoying, but less annoying than losing everything.
You are right though how would you want to explain people who don't know about crypto currencies?! Right now we don't have proper solution for registering new users beside Steemit.com but when there is one I think easiest way would be good for all new comers...I for one think that easier entries and less hassle is good form of introduction. You are right, app should have easier navigation for login and give option to backup keys securely. Some work on this being done, will be out soon 😉
