Five common wallet tasks
Use the workflow you need now, then move into deeper network and security knowledge.
Back Up a Wallet
Keep the seed phrase offline and verify your backup without exposing it.
Learn more →Receive Assets
Confirm the destination network and provide the matching address.
Learn more →Send Assets
Review address, network, amount and gas before submitting.
Learn more →Connect to a DApp
Verify the domain, account request, signature and approval scope.
Learn more →Wallet capabilities
Manage assets without losing network context
Multi-chain assets
View assets in their correct network context, understand address reuse and verify confirmations before assuming a transaction is final.
Send & Receive
Check the receiving address, network, amount, gas and transaction hash.
imtoken App
Mobile access to network selection, balances, history and DApp workflows.
imtoken Web
Browser connections should keep approval review and disconnect controls visible. A successful connection is never a reason to accept every request.
Learn about web connections →Wallet security
Keep seed phrases offline, protect private keys and review approval scope.
Blockchain networks
Understand the network before moving assets
Network selection affects fees, contracts, confirmations and where a transaction can be verified.
Multi-chain
Multi-chain
Keep the active network explicit. Similar addresses do not make different chains interchangeable.

Six steps from setup to ongoing review
Get imtoken
Use the official download entry and avoid unknown distribution links.
Create or import
Understand whether you are generating a new wallet or restoring an existing one.
Back up offline
Keep the seed phrase offline and never send it to anyone.
Choose a network
Verify the network and fee asset before moving funds.
Receive or send
Check the address, network, amount and transaction request.
Review transactions & approvals
Use transaction hashes and periodically remove permissions you no longer need.
Web3 & DApp
Treat every connection, signature and approval as a separate decision
A wallet connection does not mean every later request should be approved. Review each action on its own merits.
Never enter a seed phrase, private key or wallet recovery phrase into a DApp page.
Visit the DApp
Verify the domain
Start connection
Review account access
Inspect signature or approval
Complete the intended action
Disconnect unused sessions
Security
Security comes from repeatable checks
Wallet security is not a single setting. It is a repeatable review process that follows wallet creation, backup, DApp connections, signatures, approvals and transfers. Keep seed phrases and private keys under your own control and preferably offline; never send them to anyone or enter them into an unfamiliar website. Verify the domain and network before connecting, read each signature request, inspect the spender and permission scope before approving, and check the address, network and amount again before sending. Public computers, public networks and remote-access tools can add risk. Review connections and approvals you no longer need. Because on-chain transactions usually cannot be reversed by a wallet alone, understand each request before confirming it.

FAQ
Common questions
Assets exist on their blockchain networks. The wallet manages the keys and interfaces used to access those accounts.
No. Seed phrases and private keys should remain under your control, and support should not ask for them.
Networks have separate state, fees, contracts and confirmation rules even when address formats look similar.
Gas is the network cost associated with executing a transaction or smart-contract operation.
Review the site, account, network, request type, amount, contract and visible fields against your intended action.
Not necessarily. Connection state and token approvals are separate and may need to be managed independently.
Usually not by a wallet provider. Verify the address, network and amount before submitting.
No. Rewards can change and staking involves validator, protocol, contract and market risks.
