-A bare React Native CLI application that wraps a website in a WebView, with planned video downloading functionality.
+ACEquity is a lightweight React Native CLI application that wraps the ACE Stock Market Aggregator website in a WebView to provide a native mobile experience. The mobile app is a thin wrapper around the aggregator site, focused on browsing market data, watchlists, and alerts rather than local media downloads.

 ### Change Target URL
 
-Edit `App.tsx` and modify:
+By default the app points to the ACE Stock Market Aggregator:
 
 ```typescript
-const TARGET_URL = 'https://your-website.com';
+const TARGET_URL = 'https://ace.webark.in';
 ```
 
+To point the app at a different site (e.g., staging or a custom aggregator), update the `TARGET_URL` constant in `App.tsx`.
+
 ### Permissions
 
 The AndroidManifest.xml includes:
-- `INTERNET` - Required for WebView
-- `ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - Check connectivity
-- `READ/WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - For future downloads
-- `READ_MEDIA_VIDEO` - Android 13+ media access
+- `INTERNET` - Required for WebView access
+- `ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - For connectivity checks
+
+If you add native features (push notifications, local caching, downloads, etc.), add the appropriate permissions and update `AndroidManifest.xml` accordingly.
