I’m excited to announce that the public beta of the zec-qt-wallet Android app is here! New in this version is the ability to connect your Android App and your desktop zec-qt-wallet simply by scanning a QR Code, and not messing with any firewalls, port forwards or usernames / passwords.
To get started, please see the README and download the binaries from the releases page

Couple of things to note:

- Since this is beta software, please send me lots of feedback by filling issues or leaving comments below.
