NOTE: As a light wallet, the app requires trust in the lightwalletd server to display accurate transaction information. You can change the default lightwalletd server under Profile > Settings. The servers are not operated by Nighthawk, and the privacy of communication and broadcasting transactions cannot be guaranteed. We recommend using a VPN or Tor for enhanced privacy before making transactions.

TROUBLESHOOTING: In case of issues with syncing or missing transactions, please try the Rescan Wallet option.
