## Capabilities

* Create a new wallet.
* Restore from recovery phrase.
* Import with scan key where supported by the flow.
* Send and receive ZKA privately.
* Scan on-chain data to recover balance and recent activity.
* Configure RPC endpoints.
* Protect the app with PIN, biometrics, encrypted local storage, session lock, and screenshot protection.

## What Happens Locally

ZKAPriv is designed as a self-custody mobile wallet, not as a hosted wallet frontend. The private transfer path uses the Android application and its native `zoka_mobile` engine to build private transactions on the device before they are submitted to a node RPC endpoint.

The RPC node provides public chain data and accepts transaction payloads. In the normal self-custody flow, it does not need the user's recovery phrase, scan key, or spend key.

## Chain Scanning

Private balances are recovered by scanning chain data with local wallet material. ZKAPriv downloads the relevant public/private chain data from RPC, then uses the account's local detection material to classify owned outputs, recover balance, and rebuild recent activity.

This is why a restored wallet can recover its balance and history after the user imports the recovery phrase and lets the wallet scan the chain.

## Privacy Notes

ZKAPriv reconstructs wallet state locally. The public RPC provides chain data; it does not need the user's seed phrase, scan key, or spend key.

Sensitive wallet material is stored locally with Android security primitives, including encrypted preferences and Android Keystore-backed encryption where available. The application also uses app locking and screenshot protection to reduce accidental exposure through recents, screen recording, or shared device access.

## Compatibility

ZKAPriv v1.0.0 targets Android 8.0 or newer. The release is intended for ARM Android devices, with native wallet support available for `armeabi-v7a` and `arm64-v8a`.

## Release Notes

ZKAPriv v1.0.0 is the public Android wallet release for Mainnet Zenith.
