Connecting to dApps

To interact with a dApp:

1. Navigate to the dApp website in your browser.
2. Click the site’s connect wallet button and choose the Trust Wallet Extension from the list.
3. Review and approve the connection request inside the extension popup. Check the permissions it requests—some dApps ask only to view your address; others require transaction signing.
4. When performing actions (swaps, staking, NFT purchases), carefully review each transaction before confirming.

Disconnect dApps you no longer trust or use to reduce long-term exposure.

Security Best Practices

• Never share your recovery seed or private key with anyone. No legitimate service will ask for your seed.
• Use hardware wallets for large balances and link them where possible for signing transactions.
• Keep your browser and operating system up to date to reduce vulnerability to exploits.
• Avoid copying/pasting private keys or seeds; physical storage (paper/metal) is safer.
• Use browser profiles or a dedicated profile for crypto activity to minimize extension conflicts and tracking.

Common Issues & Troubleshooting

If the extension fails to connect or show balances, try these steps:

• Refresh the page and retry the connection request.
• Ensure your browser is up to date and that the extension has necessary permissions.
• Clear cache or try a different browser profile if conflicts persist.
• Re-import the wallet using your recovery seed only if you are certain the seed has not been compromised.
