One dark colour for both bars gave white navigation icons over a light page
under gesture navigation. The wrapper (1.9, versionCode 10) now uses the
page background in light mode and the dark theme colour in dark mode, for
the status bar and the navigation bar alike. The page updates its
theme-color meta when its own theme is applied, so a PWA's status bar and
the wrapper's follow the same switch.

shipped with the build and precached by the service worker; the system stack
paints first and stays when the file never arrives.

A push sent to ntfy.sh reached a killed app on a real phone:

  17:02:21.259  ntfy.sh → the phone's ntfy → broadcast to io.coinos.webview
  17:02:21.308  app process started (it had been killed)
  17:02:21.458  wake: job started
  17:02:22.926  wake: finishing (page said so)   — 1.7s, and "You were paid"

One thing that took two goes: `adb shell am force-stop` marks a package
STOPPED, and Android delivers no broadcasts to a stopped package unless the
sender sets FLAG_INCLUDE_STOPPED_PACKAGES — which `am broadcast` does and a
real distributor rightly doesn't. The first attempt looked like a failure and
was a test artefact; `am kill`, which is what Android itself does to a
backgrounded app, delivers fine.

And the WebView build can now say something useful about push. It was
inheriting the browser's line — "your browser has no push service, try
Firefox" — which is nonsense inside a WebView that IS the app. It asks the
host what's actually there and says: install a push app like ntfy (nothing
installed), or wait a moment and reopen (a distributor that hasn't answered
yet). Payments and messages still arrive whenever coinos is open, which is
the part that matters most to someone reading an apology.

<title>Proven on a phone: woken from a cold stop in four seconds.</title>

The whole chain, on real hardware, with the shipping APK installed:

  am broadcast → PushReceiver → expedited job → off-screen WebView →
  v3.coinos.io/?wake= → the wallet restored from its vault → CoinosHost.done()

  15:49:52.341  schedule -&gt; 1
  15:49:52.390  job started          (49ms later)
  15:49:56.602  finishing (page said so)

Four and a bit seconds from a force-stopped app to the page reporting it had
dealt with the payload — not the timeout, the page. A notify payload raised
the right notification too ("You were paid", "New message"), and the wallet
it woke was one imported into the WebView build minutes earlier, restored
from the vault in a process that had been killed.

The payload no longer goes to logcat. It carries the user's push, and
anything with ADB can read that.

Unproven, and the one link I couldn't close here: the distributor handshake.
There's no UnifiedPush distributor on this phone, so every push above was a
broadcast I sent by hand — which is exactly what a distributor sends, but
it isn't the same as watching ntfy do it.

<title>The wake had to be a job, not a foreground service — Android says so.</title>

Tested on a real phone, and the first attempt didn't work at all:

  Background started FGS: Disallowed [... code:DENIED ...]
  startForegroundService() not allowed due to mAllowStartForeground false

Android 12 forbids starting a foreground service from a broadcast receiver.
An expedited job is the sanctioned replacement — it runs promptly from the
background and needs no notification of its own to apologise for existing —
so WakeService is now WakeJob, and the notification is decided by what
arrived rather than by whether we could wake: a payment or a message is news
either way, a wallet-connect request the wallet answers by itself is not.

Two more things the phone found. A job with a connectivity constraint needs
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, or schedule() throws and nothing runs at all. And a
wake with nothing to answer used to hold a WebView open for the full thirty
seconds — a locked wallet, no wallet on the device, or no NWC connections all
end the job immediately now.

Also a bug worth naming: ctx carried `wakeDone` by shorthand, which captured
the binding while it was still undefined (ctx is built before it's defined).
The page could never say it had finished, so every wake ran its full timeout.
It reads through a closure now, like its neighbour.

The reply box gets the same paperclip the post composer has: one uploader
now, handing the URL to whichever draft asked for it, and the reply's own
imeta tag describing what it carries.

And the UnifiedPush build is graphene.apk — what people will actually call
it, and short enough to read down a phone line.

<title>A second Android build that can wake the wallet, because it holds it.</title>

The TWA can't. Chrome renders the site, so the wallet's keys live in Chrome's
storage for its own origin, and nothing outside Chrome can reach them — a
UnifiedPush message could raise a notification and no more. On a phone with
Google Play Services none of this matters; without it, background answering
was simply unavailable.

So: a second flavour, io.coinos.webview, "Coinos (UnifiedPush)". The wallet
runs in a WebView this app owns, which means a push can start it off-screen
and let it answer for itself. WakeService loads it with ?wake=&lt;payload&gt; into
the same storage the visible app uses, the page subscribes and answers
whatever the payload was about, then calls CoinosHost.done() so the service
stops — capped at 25 seconds from the page and 30 from the service, because
nothing here is allowed to sit in the background costing battery. Its
foreground notification says what it's doing rather than apologising for
existing.

The WebView carries what the wallet actually needs: DOM storage and
IndexedDB, the camera for the QR scanner (granted only once Android has
granted it to us), a file chooser for attaching pictures, and links to
anywhere but coinos.io handed to a real browser.

The trade is named in the code and worth naming here: a separate app is a
separate wallet. Its storage is its own, so signing in there is signing in
again. That's why this is a second build rather than a replacement — the TWA
is untouched, still the better browser for anyone whose phone has push.

The shared push receiver now asks the system for whatever front door this
build has, and asks a per-flavour Wake class whether the wallet can be woken
at all — no flavour checks in the middle of it. Both APKs build and ship:
coinos.apk as before, coinos-unifiedpush.apk beside it.

<title>UnifiedPush: reach a phone that has no Google in it.</title>

Web push on Android is Firebase's, so a phone without Google Play Services —
GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, any de-Googled Android — cannot be woken by a web app at
all. UnifiedPush is the way that doesn't involve Google: the user runs a
distributor (ntfy and friends), apps ask it for an endpoint, and whoever
wants to reach the device POSTs to that endpoint.

THE WRAPPER speaks the protocol directly — four broadcasts each way, so it
pulls in no library; an APK this small has no business growing a Kotlin
runtime for eight intents. It asks the distributor on every launch (the call
is idempotent, and it's how a distributor installed later gets noticed),
raises a notification when a message arrives, and acknowledges it so the
distributor stops resending.

THE ENDPOINT reaches the web app on the launch URL as ?up=, the same road
payment intents already travel — because the distributor talks to the app and
only the web app knows which pubkeys are worth watching. It's registered with
the notifier in place of a browser subscription, for notifications and for
NWC alike, and needs neither permission nor push service.

THE NOTIFIER sends to either kind: one deliver() that POSTs the payload to a
UnifiedPush endpoint, or hands it to web-push as before. Same payloads, same
404/410 pruning. The endpoint is the only secret there, so it's never logged
in full.

Verified: a POST to a live ntfy endpoint delivers the payload byte for byte,
so the app parses exactly what the notifier sent; the APK builds, carries the
receiver, and is signed with the certificate assetlinks already pins (v1.6).
tools/unifiedpush-test.js drives a browser with no push service and checks
the endpoint is taken off the URL, kept, and registered.

Honest about the limit: a UnifiedPush message wakes the ANDROID app, not
Chrome's service worker, and the wallet's keys live in the browser's storage
where nothing here can reach them. So a zap request arrives as a notification
you tap, and the wallet answers when it opens — one tap instead of none.
Automatic answering while closed still needs a browser with a push service.

<title>Ship the punks at the size we actually draw them.</title>

The art is 240x240 (20KB each, 1.5MB for the set) because that's what a punk
published as someone's nostr picture should be — but the circles the app
draws are 18 to 64px, so a new wallet with nothing cached was fetching eight
times the pixels it could show, one request per face.

punks-sm carries a 128px copy of each: 4KB instead of 20KB, indistinguishable
at 64px. Small circles and the wizard's picker tiles load those; only the 64px
profile avatar and the value the wizard publishes stay full-size.

The bigger win is that a punk picture is our own art wherever it turns up.
Everyone who keeps the default publishes v3.coinos.io/punks/N.webp as their
nostr picture, so those faces now paint straight off disk at the size being
drawn — no request, no thumbnail to make, and no broken circle when the
legacy coinos.io copies 502 (which they do for a third of the set).

androidbrowserhelper defaults the TWA status/navigation bars to white when no color is declared — the PWA doesn't hit this because it uses the manifest theme_color. Added STATUS_BAR_COLOR / NAVIGATION_BAR_COLOR meta-data (light + dark variants) pointing at new color resources set to the PWA's theme_color #15171a, so the top bar matches the dark app chrome. Bumped to versionCode 6 / versionName 1.5 and rebuilt static/coinos.apk (meta-data verified present via aapt).
