Common tasks
Start with what you need to do now
Each task leads to a fuller workflow with security checks.
Connect to a DApp
Verify the domain and assess connection, signatures and approvals separately.
View guide →Wallet capabilities
Keep assets, networks and security in one connected workflow
Multi-chain assets
Keep the active network in context when reviewing assets, and distinguish native assets, token contracts and confirmations.
Understand multi-chain →imtoken APP
Manage networks, assets and transaction history on mobile while maintaining device and backup security.

A browser connection is not the same as asset permission. Review every signature and approval independently.

Wallet security
Back up seed phrases offline, keep private keys private, review signature targets and remove DApp approvals you no longer need.

Know which chain you are actually using
Multi-chain
A multi-chain wallet manages several independent networks in one interface. Switching networks does not move assets across chains.
Before acting, confirm the active network, address, native gas asset and transaction target.
Open network guide →Public Chains
Public chains are maintained by distributed nodes, and transactions gain additional confirmation as more blocks are added.
Before acting, confirm the active network, address, native gas asset and transaction target.
Open network guide →
EVM
EVM networks may share address formats and contract concepts, but balances, gas and state remain network-specific.
Before acting, confirm the active network, address, native gas asset and transaction target.
Open network guide →
Layer 2
Layer 2 systems settle in relation to a base chain. When moving assets across layers, verify the bridge route, destination network and arrival status.
Before acting, confirm the active network, address, native gas asset and transaction target.
Open network guide →
Gas & Confirmations
Gas represents execution cost; confirmation represents onchain progress after inclusion. They are related but not the same.
Before acting, confirm the active network, address, native gas asset and transaction target.

Six steps for a repeatable wallet workflow
- 01
Get imtoken
Use the single download entry for the product flow.
- 02
Create or import a wallet
Initialize in a trusted environment and share no recovery material.
- 03
Back up offline
Keep the seed phrase offline; do not screenshot or upload it.
- 04
Choose and verify the network
Confirm the network, address format, gas asset and target asset.
- 05
Receive or send assets
Review address, network, amount and fee before sending.
- 06
Review transactions and approvals
Check the transaction hash and review DApp approvals you no longer need.
Web3 & DApp
Connection is only the beginning; review each request separately
Connecting a wallet does not mean every signature request should be approved. Review each signature and approval independently.
Read the full Web3 guide →- Visit the DApp
- Verify the domain
- Connect
- Review account request
- Review signature or approval
- Complete the action
- Disconnect when no longer needed
Security
Security comes from repeatable, verifiable choices
Seed phrases and private keys remain under the user’s control, and official staff will not ask for them. Never send a seed phrase, private key or verification code to anyone. Check address, network and amount before a transfer; review every DApp signature and approval target; consider revoking permissions you no longer use. Use extra care on public devices, public networks and remote-access environments.
Open Security Center- Back up seed phrases offline
- Never disclose private keys
- Verify network and address
- Review signature requests

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
No. Seed phrases and private keys should remain under the user’s control, and official staff will not ask for them.
Onchain transactions are generally not reversible by a wallet provider. Verify address, network, amount and fee before sending.
Because each network maintains independent state. A shared address format does not make assets portable across networks.
Connection usually establishes account access. Asset impact typically comes from later transaction signatures or token approvals, which should be reviewed separately.
Gas measures the resources used to execute a transaction or contract call; cost depends on network conditions and the operation.
No. Rewards can change, exits can take time, validators can face penalties, and technical and market risks apply.
