Normally I use Electrum Windows Program to send and receive BTCs.

However I would appreciate to have Electrum Wallet information on my Android 13 smartphone too.
E.g. to get information if I already received a BTC transfer.
or to copy & paste a BTC address and send it to my partner.

Ok, I could download and install the Electrum App to get access to my wallet over there.

But I don't want to open the wallet in full access mode.
Instead everything should be possible except sending  BTCs.
Therefore I need something like a read-only mode which cannot (never) be changed on in my Smartphone.

So it must by a special Electrum App compilation which never allows "write" mode even if I enter the correct wallet passwd.

Alternatively Electrum could offer a second wallet password for read-only mode.

Everything is acceptable as long as I do not have to enter my full "write" wallet password.

Is this somehow possible?
Or can this be implemented in the next version?
