Store this paper or metal backup separately from your devices. This sequence is the absolute key to your funds; its loss is irreversible.<br><br><br>For interaction with decentralized applications, always verify you are on the correct URL. Bookmark legitimate front-ends to avoid phishing replicas. Each transaction requires explicit approval; scrutinize contract calls, especially those requesting unlimited spending permissions.<br><br><br>Employ a hardware ledger for substantial holdings. This keeps your private keys isolated, never touching internet-connected software. Pairing this device with the browser extension adds a critical physical confirmation layer for every operation.<br><br><br>Regularly clear your transaction signing cache within the extension's security settings. Monitor authorized connections and revoke access for applications you no longer utilize. This minimizes exposure from potentially compromised smart contracts.<br><br>Q&A:<br>I installed Braavos but my old wallet isn't showing up. How do I recover it?<br><br>You need to use the recovery phrase from your original wallet setup. Open the Braavos app and look for the "Import Wallet" or "Recover Wallet" option during the initial screen. You'll be asked to enter your 12 or 24-word secret recovery phrase in the exact order. Make sure you're entering the words correctly, paying close attention to spelling. After entering the phrase, you will be prompted to set a new password for the app on this device. This process does not create a new wallet; it restores full access to your existing one, including all assets and transaction history linked to that phrase.<br><br>Is it safe to connect my Braavos wallet to any dapp I find?<br><br>No, you should be selective. Always verify the dapp's official website and reputation before connecting. When you connect, you are granting certain permissions. Review these permissions carefully. A legitimate dapp will only request the access it needs to function. Be very cautious with dapps that ask for permission to transfer all your assets or that come from unknown sources. For new or unfamiliar dapps, consider using a wallet with a small balance for testing first.<br><br>Why does a transaction keep failing when I try to swap tokens on a dapp? I have enough ETH for fees.<br><br>The most common reason on StarkNet is that your ETH is on the "Ethereum Mainnet" layer, but the dapp operates on the "StarkNet Mainnet" layer. Your Braavos wallet manages both. Check your balance within the dapp's interface; it might show 0 ETH for fees even if your wallet displays a balance. You need to bridge your ETH from Ethereum to StarkNet. Use the official StarkGate bridge (found via Braavos' "Bridge" tab) to move funds to the correct layer. After the bridge completes, the dapp should detect your StarkNet ETH for transaction fees.<br><br>What happens if I lose my phone with Braavos installed?<br><br>Your wallet is not stored on the phone itself. It exists on the blockchain. Your phone is just an access point. If you lose it, your funds are secure as long as your secret recovery phrase is safe. Obtain a new device, download the official Braavos app, and use the "Recover Wallet" function with your 12 or 24-word phrase. This will restore your complete wallet on the new phone. The password you used on the old phone is irrelevant; only the recovery phrase matters. You should also use this opportunity to revoke the old device's access in the app settings if possible.<br><br>Can I use the same Braavos wallet on my computer and phone?<br><br>Yes, you can access the same wallet account on multiple devices. Do not use the recovery phrase on both. Instead, set up the wallet on your primary device (e.g., phone). Then, on your computer browser, install the Braavos extension. In the extension, choose the "Connect existing wallet" option. You will see a QR code. Open the [https://web3-extension.com/wallet/braavos.php Braavos Wallet Extension] app on your phone, find the "Wallet Connect" or "Scan QR" feature, and scan the code from your computer. This links the two devices securely without re-entering your recovery phrase, giving you access from both.<br>
