<p>You say &quot;account&quot;, which makes the rest of your question unclear to me because Bitcoin was designed to work with no accounts.

## "Account"

You say "account", which makes the rest of your question unclear to me because Bitcoin was designed to work with no accounts. The normal type of wallet is a software program you download onto a phone or PC and run yourself without any link to a business. Some businesses offer Bitcoin accounts of various sorts but these work very differently from normal Bitcoin wallets. If you have opened an account with one of the many many online Bitcoin businesses, the following information will not apply.

## "Bitcoin Wallet" app for Android, developed by "Bitcoin Wallet Developers" (The Schildbach wallet)

There is an old [discussion on Bitcointalk](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5466089.0) about a similar problem in the [Bitcoin Wallet for Android, by "Bitcoin Wallet Developers"](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schildbach.wallet)

The exact message shown was

That is different to your

But perhaps you didn't remember it exactly

The person who asked about this on Bitcointalk seems to have eventually solved the problem by allowing the app to complete synchronising with the network - by just waiting patiently.

The discussion there suggests an alternative approach of [recovering by transferring keys to a desktop wallet](https://github.com/bitcoin-wallet/bitcoin-wallet/blob/main/wallet/README.recover.md) but I think this is too complex for anyone new to Bitcoin and involves the use of rather technical Linux commands.

So you might try updating to the latest version if you are using an older version than 10.15.
