# Monerujo
Another Android Monero Wallet
### QUICKSTART
- Download the APK for the most current release [here](https://github.com/m2049r/xmrwallet/releases) and install it
- Run the App and select "Generate Wallet" to create a new wallet or recover a wallet
- Advanced users can copy over synced wallet files (all files) onto sdcard in directory Monerujo (created first time App is started)
- See the [FAQ](doc/FAQ.md)
### Disclaimer
You may lose all your Moneroj if you use this App. Be cautious when spending on the mainnet.
### Random Notes
- Based off monero v0.11.0.0 with PR #2289 applied
- currently only android32 (runs on 64-bit as well)
- works on the testnet & mainnet
- takes forever to sync due to 32-bit architecture
- use your own daemon - it's easy
- screen stays on until first sync is complete
- saves wallet only on first sync and when sending transactions or editing notes
- Monerujo means "Monero Wallet" according to https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/3exy7t/esperanto_corner/
### TODO
- review visibility of methods/classes
- more sensible error dialogs
### Issues / Pitfalls
- The backups folder is now called "backups" and not ".backups" - which in most file explorers was a hidden folder
- Wallets are now created directly in the "monerujo" folder, and not in the ".new" folder as before
- You may want to check the old folders with a file browsing app and delete the ".new" and ".backups" folders AFTER moving neccessary wallet files to the new locations. Or simply make new backups from within Monerujo.
- Also note, that on some devices the backups will only be visible on a PC over USB after a reboot of the device (it's an Android bug/feature)
- Created wallets on a private testnet are unusable because the restore height is set to that
of the "real" testnet. After creating a new wallet, make a **new** one by recovering from the seed.
The official monero client shows the same behaviour.
### HOW TO BUILD
No need to build. Binaries are included:
- openssl-1.0.2l
- monero-v0.11.0.0 + pull requests #2289
- boost_1_64_0
If you want to build them yourself (recommended) check out [the instructions](doc/BUILDING-external-libs.md)
Then, fire up Android Studio and build the APK.
