 ### What is the Chia Cloud Wallet?
 
-The Cloud Wallet is a new platform for interacting with the Chia blockchain. Assets are stored in vaults, in an app that is always synced with the blockchain. This makes it easy for newcomers to get started with Chia; it also provides a secure custody solution. In addition, it will eventually include an API for developers in Chia’s ecosystem to make dApps that use the Chia blockchain.

 ### What is a vault?
 
-A vault is a new way to custody your assets on Chia’s blockchain. Instead of securing your XCH, CATs, NFTs, etc with a single key, a vault uses multiple keys and more advanced custody rules. The current iteration of Chia vaults have two keys – one for signing transactions (either a passkey or a hardware key from the Chia Signer app), and one for recovery purposes (a BLS key).

+
+You cannot use both the Cloud Wallet and the Chia Signer app on the same device yet. However, we do intend to enable this functionality in a future release.

 ### Is the Chia Signer app available for both Android and iOS?
 
 It is currently only available for iOS. We will build an Android version in the future.
 
 ### On which iOS devices is the Chia Signer app supported?
 
-The app is supported on all iOS devices with a Secure Enclave. This includes iPhone models beginning with the 5s (released in 2013).
+The app has two requirements for iOS devices:
+
+1. The device must run iOS 15 or later
+2. The device must have a Secure Enclave
+
+The following devices meet both of these requirements:
+
+- iPhone models beginning with the iPhone 6
+- iPad models beginning with the iPad mini 4
+
+Be sure to double check that your device is running at least iOS 15 prior to installing the Chia Signer app.
+
+### Is it safe to install the Chia Signer app on a second-hand device?
+
+Yes -- just be sure to use the do a factory reset of the device first. See [Apple's support site](https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/iph7a2a9399b/ios) for instructions.
 
 ### Does the Chia Signer app use blind signing?
 
-No, but it doesn’t use clear signing yet, either. The user is shown the details of the transaction before signing it. This info is significantly more detailed than what can be seen on the small screens of most hardware wallets. However, the end user needs to trust that CNI’s servers have not been compromised, so it also isn’t clear signing. The light amount of trust required should be sufficient for most users. However, for users who want to sign large transfers with the Chia Signer app, we plan to develop true clear signing in the future.

 ### Will CNI be able to freeze and/or confiscate my assets?
 
-No. CNI won’t custody any of your assets, so it won’t have the ability to freeze or confiscate them. If the Cloud Wallet website were forcibly shut down, you would still have the ability to spend your assets because you would still be in control of the keys associated with your vault. However, the infrastructure to accomplish this would need to be rebuilt.

-One of the advantages of using vaults is that their custody keys are not directly accessible to the website or its APIs. The two risks for Cloud Wallet end users are:
-CNI can be forced to turn over metadata to various law enforcement. However, we don’t save much metadata beyond what is already available on the blockchain.
-An attacker could set up a man-in-the-middle attack when you are signing a transaction. The amount of trust required when using the Signer app is already minimal. In the future, we will enable full clear signing, as well as the ability to run the Cloud Wallet against your own full node in order to mitigate this attack vector.

 ### Do vaults always use the same address?
 
-Yes. There is slightly less privacy when using vaults versus standard wallets. However, even the reference wallet doesn’t offer true privacy because all transactions are recorded on a public ledger.
+Yes, and this is a departure from the reference wallet, which uses a new address for each transaction. The reason vaults always use the same address is because they are singletons -- the vault itself authorizes the spend of coins under its control, as opposed to standard wallets which are derived from BLS keys.
+
+Users must carefully consider the privacy (and therefore security) implications of reusing an address. When the address doesn't change, it becomes easier to put together a historical record of transactions. Vaults that hold significant value could therefore be targeted with physical attacks, as explained in [a Bitcoin wiki](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Address_reuse).
+
+Future versions of vaults will have additional security such as multisigs and time locks to mitigate the risk of physical attacks.

-- The green "success" message is shown when attempting to send a transaction before the transaction has been signed
-- For vaults with large numbers of transactions, some transactions may not be listed in the vault’s history

+- The error message that appears when you enter an invalid Send address is not very descriptive
+- When setting up a vault on an iPhone, the fields for inputting up the clawback timer might not show any numbers
+- If you attempt to add a passkey, but then click the X to close out of the window, it will give you an error
+- If you send funds to your own vault, the transaction will show an amount of 0

 - Coins might be locked if certain transactions fail, and it’s not obvious how to unlock them; however, this is an uncommon occurrence

 - On rare occasions, selecting a custody key will result in it not being possible to return to the main screen. \* Log out and log back in to work around this issue for now
 - If a "Fee too low" error is encountered (a rare occurrence), a transaction may enter a "signed" state, but it is not submitted to the mempool
