+# My Kivy App
+
+A simple Android app built with [Kivy](https://kivy.org) and
+[KivyMD](https://kivymd.readthedocs.io) — a Material Design welcome screen with
+buttons to test internet access, file storage, and the ffpyplayer/ffmpeg
+libraries.
+
+## Permissions (in `buildozer.spec`)
+
+- `INTERNET` — connectivity test
+- `READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` / `WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE`
+- `MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` — **All files access** storage manager
+  (grant via the in-app "Manage Storage" button, opened from system settings)
+
+## Build the APK
+
+The APK is built automatically by GitHub Actions on every push to `main`
+(see [`.github/workflows/build.yml`](.github/workflows/build.yml)).
+
+To download the latest APK:
+
+1. Open the repo's **Actions** tab and click the latest **Build Android APK** run.
+2. Download the **Kivy-Android-Debug-APK** artifact and install it on your phone.
+
+## Run locally (desktop)
+
+```bash
+pip install kivy
+python main.py
+```
+
+## Build locally (Android)
+
+```bash
+pip install buildozer
+buildozer android debug
+```
+
+The generated APK is written to `bin/`.
