+<h2>Electrum for Android</h2>
+
+This page explains how to install Electrum on Android devices.<br/><br/>
+
+Please note that Electrum is not distributed as a binary package, but
+as python source code; this gives users the possibility to see what
+the code is doing, and to check that it does not contain malware. The
+downside is that installation is slightly more complicated than
+downloading an app on the Android market, but it remains very
+simple. <br/><br/>
+
+It is possible to print this page on paper and to install everything from
+QR codes. If you encounter problems, you may find help at
+<a href="http://maketecheasier.com/install-applications-without-the-market/2011/01/28">
+this link</a>.
