Mobile App - Settings: How to create or import additional wallets

ArConnect users may need to create or import additional wallets for various reasons and are able to do so directly in the Mobile App Settings after finishing onboarding.

Important note - Every wallet created will have its own seedphrase and address. Multiple addresses can not be derived from the same seedphrase.

ArConnect users can create or import additional wallets by:

• Opening the ArConnect Mobile App

• Click on the Settings menu in the upper left hand corner of the Dashboard

• Select Manage Accounts on the Settings screen

• Click the Add a account button at the bottom of the Manage Accounts screen

Create a new wallet

• Click the Create a new wallet option on the Add a wallet screen

• Backup your wallet by copying your new wallet’s seedphrase
