FOREWORD This is my attempt at making the Quark Mobile Wallet (QMW) easier for non-techie people to use. I have kept to what I think would be the most useful and relevant features of the QMW for new users – namely how they would use it day to day as a payment system. Whilst I am computer/smart phone literate, I am not a programmer – and therefore everything I know about the QMW is through practice and playing around with the application – I am not an expert so I won’t be writing a ‘programmers guide’ any time soon. If you do have some suggestions to make this user guide better (other feature of the QMW you would like to see etc…) or if you have spotted a mistake (no doubt there are a few) – then do get in contact – I will try to accommodate all requests and updates in future user guide accordingly. Additionally, if you want to help with the production future versions of this guide, again – get in contact. Regards Sarb Singh [email protected] [‘Sub80’ and ‘QDG’ on Reddit]

HOW TO ADD ANOTHER ADDRESS TO YOUR WALLET & CHANGE THE LABEL/NAME OF YOUR QUARK ADDRESSES
If you click on your Quark address on the home page – the Address Book page opens up. This is where all your addresses are displayed (you can scroll right to see all your contacts / sending addresses – previously sent to address – more about this later). You can create more address for your self here (you can not delete your addresses), as well as label/give your addresses a label/name on this Address Book page:
Add another address (see next page)
Your already created addresses will be displayed here
Your existing addresses Labels/ Name. Click on this to give or edit your addresses name. (see next page)
1) Click here to get to the ‘Address Book’ / ‘Your Addresses’ page
6
Add Another Address Add/Edit a Label for Your Addresses (Label/ Name) By clicking on the + symbol, to add another address, you will get the pop-up screen below. The pop-up screen lets you know that if you do create another address then you cannot delete it from this wallet (the only way to remove addresses is to uninstall the wallet completely – with all the addresses being lost – so make sure no Quarks are in there if you do uninstall the wallet). [I will not be creating an additional address just yet - so I hit cancel].
If you are adding a Label for an address where no label already exists you will get the ‘Add Address’ pop-up page with a blank space for you to type in the label. If you are editing the label or deleting the label of the address then you will see the ‘Edit Address’ pop-up (this does not delete the address). The changed address Label will appear on the Address Book page.

HOW/WHERE DO I BUY QUARKS FROM? You can buy/get Quarks from many sources – individuals. Exchanges, websites, free Quark faucets/websites … it really depends on what you are looking for in terms of quantity and your geographic location in regards to how/where you buy/get Quarks (although the infrastructure to buy Quarks and buy with Quarks is increasing all the time – certain countries have greater adoption then others at present). Quark Mobile Wallet does have a “Where to buy” list of Exchanges/websites that lists some of the most frequently used ‘vendors’ that many Quark community members frequently use. This list is a good starting point for all people that are new to Quarks and wanting to buy/get some Quarks – but do bare in mind that it may not contain vendors you may have been recommended by friends or fellow ‘Quarkers’ (indeed my own personal favourite vendor of choice in the UK is not in the list). This may be because the developers are concentrating on making Quark Mobile Wallet (QMW) is constantly being reviewed and updated by the very hard-working developers and they may not be aware of your particular vendor or they may not have had the opportunity to include that vendor in this current version of the QMW.
1) On the Home page, click on one of the soft button on your phone that will bring up bring up the list shown to the right (on my phone it is the bottom left soft button) 2) Click on the ‘Where to buy’ option.
3) The ‘Where to buy’ page opens with a list of vendors.

HOW TO RECEIVE QUARKS FROM OTHERS Like with any delivery system – for example mail/parcels – the only way someone can give you something is by either handing the thing over in person, or by sending it to your address. With Quarks it is exactly the same thing. When requesting Quarks from others they (others) can:
1) Scan your QR barcode, which contains your address details (done face to face via your wallet, or if they have a printed copy of the QR code). 2) Manually type in your address (for example if their camera is broken when face to face, or if they have it written down somewhere). 3) Send a funds request from your QMW – requesting for Quarks (so long as you know the senders address). This is a Quark wallet feature where you can send out a request for coins
and this request has your address on it – like a return to sender address in post or sent by address in email.
1) Scanning Your QR code. If the person sending you Quarks is next to you then you can present your address in QR format ready for them to scan. Once they scan your QR then their wallet will get the address.
Home Page: Click on the QR code
A bigger version of the QR code appears – making it easier to scan by the camera

2) Manually type in your address (for example if their camera is broken when face to face, or if they have it written down somewhere) You show, tell, write down, phone etc… your Quark address to the sending person – they go to their send page and type in your address (more on how to do this in how to send Quarks section).
