 ### Fixed
-- Android: register as a legacy Native Module when New Architecture is off (`isTurboModule` follows `BuildConfig.IS_NEW_ARCHITECTURE_ENABLED`) so `NativeModules.RNZipArchive` is non-null on old-arch apps (RNZA-5)
+- Android: register as a legacy Native Module when New Architecture is off (`isTurboModule` follows `BuildConfig.IS_NEW_ARCHITECTURE_ENABLED`) so `NativeModules.RNZipArchive` is non-null on old-arch apps (RNZA-5, #385)
 
 ### Added
 - CI: RN 0.81.6 old-architecture Android + iOS compile in `.github/workflows/old-arch.yml` (RNZA-5). RN 0.82+ cannot opt out of New Architecture.

 Old-arch proof is compile + link on RN **0.81.6** (`.github/workflows/old-arch.yml`), not device Maestro. See the [README matrix](./README.md#old-architecture-rn-070081).
 
+## v9.5.1

+Android old-architecture load fix. JavaScript call sites are unchanged. Native rebuild required.

+```bash
+npm install react-native-zip-archive@^9.5.1
+cd ios && pod install && cd ..
+```
+
+Stay on `^7.0.0` only for RN **< 0.70**. On 0.70–0.81, old architecture works. On 0.82+, New Architecture is the only option.

 ## v9.5
 
 Additive JavaScript APIs. Existing positional `zip` / `unzip` calls are unchanged.
