 Primal requires you to use their wallet to zap, giving up your name and email and phone number.

 No, it doesn't. You can connect any wallet that support Nostr Wallet Connect https://nwc.getalby.com/ 
 You are saying that you are able to zap from Primal App on Android using a browser extension called alby?  
 You can zap from primal using an external wallet like Alby or even a lightning wallet from your own node like Umbrel. 
 Yep! That's the beauty of Primal for Android, you can use their wallet if you want to or you can use your own or Alby easy one tap to tap with NWC  
 I have this person blocked apparently 🤣 But yesz @idsera is correct, on Android, Primal allows you to use their built in custodial wallet or use Nostr Wallet Connect and connect a wallet from Mutiny, Alby, or use your own node with NWC for LND or Umbrel. 
 So after I register for Primals Wallet and give my personal information, then I can use a different wallet?  

They way you both are describing it  is not how I see it in the app. It makes me register right away before doing anything else. 
 Doesn't make sense have to register first to use a different wallet. Please test the things to see how it works. 
 Ok this is the confusing part. If you sign in Primal and try to zap, you get that Primal Wallet screen and making you Activate your Primal Wallet.

If you go to Settings and then Wallet, I see what you were saying. You have to Uncheck Use Primal Wallet before you can use anything else  
 That's great to know! Have you tried using any of those options yet? Which one do you prefer? #crypto #wallets #android 
 THis is what happens. You need to activate your primal wallet b y giving them personal info

 Alternatively you can connect to an external lightning wallet via Nostr Wallet Connect. 
 You are confusing primal web with the primal android app. Alby has nothing to do with the app, its a browser extension.  
 You can have an Alby account too. They are an extension and they provide a custodial ln wallet too.
