About EtherPay Ether Wallet
EtherPay is an Ether wallet app -- Use it to check the balance in an Ether wallet/account; or to send or receive Ether to/from other Ether addresses.
To use the app, the first thing you need to do is import an Ether account. You need to use some other Ether client to create the account (anyhow it's important to have a backup of your account information somewhere other than your smartphone); If you don't already have an Ether account, I recommend https://www.myetherwallet.com/. Even of you already have a wallet, in order to import it to the EtherPay app, you'll need to get the private key, which you can do at myetherwallet.com, (under the view wallet info tab).
The EtherPay app is *not* an Ethereum node or client -- it never downloads any part of the blockchaim; instead it uses etherchain.org to check your Ether balance; it uses your private key to sign transactions; and it uses etherscan.io to broadcast signed transactions. Simple, huh? Your private key is never transmitted.
BTW, the source code for EtherPay is available on GitHub.

Simple and very useful for newbies like me. I just hope it has a 6-digit pin whenever you open it.
