You don't really have a private key for "a transaction"... You have a private key for an address that is used in a transaction...
The Android mobile app has a limited subset of the available options that the desktop version has... So you can't see the individual private keys like you can using the desktop version. The most you can see is the seed (and master public key etc)
So you would need to create a copy of the wallet in the desktop version (using your seed), identify the address that is used in the transaction that you are interested in (right click the transaction in the list and select "show details"), then on the "addresses" tab (view -> show addresses) you can right click on the address you want the key for and select "private key".
Topic: Android mobile app: How to get the private key? (Read 303 times)
Thank you BitMaxz. Where exactly can I access the option menue in the mobile app? Is it: accessing a wallet and then chosing the concerning transaction and then chosing "details"? I tried, but there is nothing. And there is no other menu or option to access info related to the transaction.
I tried to access the wallet via desktop app (I have seed and pwd), but couldn't retreive the private key yet. I'll try within the next days and let you know if it worked.
Thanks so far!

It should be in the option menu of electrum mobile wallet and choose private keys to backup your private keys save it somewhere but if there is no option i think there is other way you can check this someone also asking for this here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/accessing-privatepublic-keys-and-addresses-from-electrum-for-android-1754681
But if you already had the word seeds backup you recover them into your desktop electrum wallet and you can backup your private keys there 1 by 1..
This is only thing that i know for now if you don' have any backup seeds i don't think there is other way to get your private keys.

Hello! I made a transaction with my Electrum mobile app (Android) some time ago. Now I need the private key for this transaction, but can't figure how to find it. Does anyone know how to access the private key for a specific transaction? Thanks for your help?
