Trust Wallet Extension: Your Gateway to Web3 on Desktop

Experience the Decentralized Web, Right in Your Browser

Welcome to the next evolution of your Trust Wallet experience. The Trust Wallet Browser Extension brings the power and security of your favorite mobile crypto wallet directly to your desktop browser. Connect to thousands of decentralized applications, manage your digital assets, and interact with blockchains seamlessly—all without compromising the security that Trust Wallet is known for.

Designed for both beginners and seasoned Web3 explorers, our extension provides the familiar, intuitive interface you love, now available where you browse. Whether you're trading on decentralized exchanges, collecting NFTs, or participating in DAOs, the Trust Wallet Extension is your bridge to the expanding universe of decentralized applications on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, and many more networks.

Why Use the Trust Wallet Browser Extension?

Seamless dApp Connectivity

The Web3 ecosystem lives in your browser. With the Trust Wallet Extension, connecting to decentralized applications like Uniswap, OpenSea, or PancakeSwap becomes effortless. A single click is all it takes to authenticate and start interacting with your favorite dApps, just like you would with MetaMask—but with the Trust Wallet simplicity you already trust.

Full Asset Management

View your entire portfolio's balance and activity directly from the extension popup. Send and receive cryptocurrencies and tokens across all supported networks without needing to switch between devices. Your extension wallet stays synchronized with your mobile wallet when you use the same recovery phrase, giving you flexibility in how you access your funds.

Enhanced Security on Desktop

We've engineered our extension with the same security-first principles as our mobile app. Your private keys are encrypted and stored locally on your device—never on our servers. Combined with features like clear signing and transaction previews, you maintain complete control and visibility over every action you take in Web3.

Multi-Chain by Design

Born from a multi-chain philosophy, the Trust Wallet Extension supports Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, and dozens of other EVM-compatible networks right out of the box. Easily switch between networks to explore different ecosystems, all from one unified interface.

Your Security, Our Priority

Trust Wallet is a self-custody wallet. You alone control your keys and, therefore, your funds. This ultimate freedom comes with ultimate responsibility.

Security Best Practices:

• Guard Your Recovery Phrase: This 12-word phrase is the master key to your wallet. Anyone with it can access all your assets. Never input it on any website, even if it looks like Trust Wallet's.

• Verify Website URLs: Only connect your wallet to official, verified dApp websites. Bookmark trusted sites to avoid phishing scams.

• Review Every Transaction: Carefully check the recipient address, amount, and network fee on the confirmation screen before approving.

• Use a Strong Local Password: This encrypts your wallet data on your computer.

• Keep Software Updated: Ensure your browser and the Trust Wallet extension are always updated to the latest versions for critical security patches.

• Beware of Support Scams: Trust Wallet support will never ask for your recovery phrase, private keys, or to screen share.

The extension includes security warnings for suspicious sites and high-risk transactions, but your vigilance is the most important layer of protection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Is the Trust Wallet Extension safe to use?

Yes. The extension is developed and maintained by the official Trust Wallet team. Like all self-custody software, its security also depends on you. By following security best practices—especially safeguarding your recovery phrase and being cautious of phishing sites—you can use the extension with high confidence. Your private keys are stored encrypted on your local machine.

2. Can I use the same wallet on mobile and desktop?

Absolutely. By importing your existing 12-word recovery phrase from your Trust Wallet mobile app into the extension, you create two access points to the same wallet. All your addresses, balances, and transaction history will be synchronized because they are reading from the same blockchain addresses.

3. The extension won't connect to a dApp. What should I do?

First, try these steps:

• Refresh the dApp webpage.

• Ensure the extension is unlocked with your password.

• Check that you are on the correct network for that dApp (e.g., you need Ethereum Mainnet for Uniswap, BNB Smart Chain for PancakeSwap).

• Try disconnecting and reconnecting the site from the extension's "Connected Sites" menu.
  If problems persist, consult our Help Center for specific dApp connection guides.

4. I forgot my extension's local password. How do I reset it?

The local password is stored only on your computer and cannot be recovered by us. However, you can reset it by:

1. Removing the Trust Wallet extension from your browser.

2. Reinstalling it from the official store.

3. Importing your wallet again using your 12-word recovery phrase.

4. Setting a new local password.
   Remember: You must have your recovery phrase to do this.

5. Does the Trust Wallet Extension support hardware wallets like Ledger or Trezor?

Not currently. The Trust Wallet Extension is designed as a software (or "hot") wallet for convenient access to dApps. For storing large amounts, we always recommend using our mobile app in combination with a hardware wallet for maximum security, keeping the majority of your assets in cold storage.

6. What browsers are supported?

The Trust Wallet Extension is primarily available for Chromium-based browsers like Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, and Opera. You can find it in their respective extension stores. Support for Firefox and other browsers may be developed based on community demand.
