Lame. It used to work now fails without error message. It probably autoupdate and changed a funftional version to a piece of turd. Feeling wronged. Trying to send my zcash but this wallet totally disabled me. Not worth the blockchain sync. Poorly written app. Not worthy to manage my Zcash or waste my time.

The app is very slow to network and if open got process for long hours and still not functioning properly to menu wallet where I could find my tokens... Since they app give or issued to me address to receive token it never open and then I find it difficult to my coins... Why? Google play store should look towards app check mating before uploading.. this is nonsense.

Thank you for your feedback Alexander. We are looking forward to ship faster syncing on Nighthawk Wallet. Meanwhile, please increase device lock time & try waiting to let the download and syncing finish before using the wallet. Our focus has been strong privacy & reducing information leaks to third parties.

For now this is best Zcash wallet which compatible with shielded addresses and prefer to use it. I really recommend it if you want to anonymise your transaction and sleep calm) This app can be better, smoother and maybe more modern, but that can be upgraded in future. And, I really ask for a tip in app which says "how many dollars do you have in zec"
