+# ROOTZ for Android
+
+ROOTZ is a personal command center — research, notes, calendar, wardrobe,
+and media in one place. This page hosts the official Android releases.
+There is no Play Store listing; the app updates itself from here.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Android 7.0 or newer
+- About 100 MB free space (30 MB app + downloads)
+- Internet connection (your data syncs with your private server)
+
+## Install / update
+
+1. Open **Releases** (right sidebar) and download the newest
+   `ROOTZ-vX.X.X.apk` file.
+2. Open the downloaded file. Android will ask you to **allow installs
+   from this source** once — enable it and go back.
+3. Tap **Install**, then **Open** and sign in.
+
+Updates work the same way without you visiting this page: the app checks
+for new versions on launch and shows an **Update available** popup with
+**Update now** and **Skip**. Tapping Update now downloads and installs
+in the background — your login and data are kept.
+
+## Verify a download (optional)
+
+Every release lists its SHA-256 checksum. To confirm your file is genuine
+and untampered, compare it with any checksum tool before installing.
+All releases are signed with the same developer certificate — Android
+itself refuses any update signed differently, so a mismatched signature
+can never silently replace your app.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **"App not installed — package conflicts"**: an older copy (often a debug
+  build, work-profile copy, or second-space clone) is still on the phone.
+  Uninstall every copy of ROOTZ, then install fresh.
+- **Stuck on "Allow from this source"**: enable the toggle, press Back —
+  the installer continues automatically. If it doesn't, reopen ROOTZ and
+  tap Update now again.
+- **"Download failed"**: check your connection and retry from inside the
+  app. The download resumes automatically on flaky networks.
+- **Login asked again after update**: normal only if your session expired
+  while updating — sign in once, it stays.
+
+## Privacy
+
+Your notes, papers, calendar, and files live on your own server, not with
+any app store. The app requests only the permissions it needs (network,
+notifications, biometrics, storage for downloads). Crash and diagnostic
+reports are sent only when you tap "Report a problem" in Settings.
+
+## Support
+
+Inside the app: Settings → Report a problem (attaches diagnostics
+automatically — mention what you were doing when it broke).
