How it works
Three steps. No spend key.
Import, choose a scan mode, and watch incoming activity.
- 1
Import
Import an address you are allowed to watch, plus its private view key. Paste or scan a QR code. The app checks that the view key derives exactly that address’s public view key, and rejects a wrong key before anything is stored.
- 2
Choose a scan mode
Private node mode talks to a Monero daemon you select. Explorer-assisted mode uses xmrchain.net and is labeled at import because that mode sends the address and the private view key to xmrchain.net.
- 3
Watch
Balances, incoming payments, confirmations, and coinbase maturity (60 blocks) update from the chain data that source returns. Unlock time is shown. Outgoing spends are not visible, because a view key cannot see them.
