Connecting dApps via WalletConnect

There are two ways in which you can connect to a dApp with Ambire Wallet: 

1. Through our dApp catalogue

Step 1: Go to your Ambire Wallet dashboard

Step 2: Click on dApps in the left side menu

Step 3: Click on the dApp that you would like to use. Please keep in mind that dApps in the catalogue are network-sensitive, so make sure you are the right network when trying to connect to a dApp. If the dApp you are looking for is not in the list, you can add it in a few easy steps. 

2. Automatically or Manually through WalletConnect:

• Automatically: if you've enabled the clipboard permission, just copy the WalletConnect URL from the dApp and go to the Ambire Wallet tab, and you will be automatically connected. Note: This mode is not available in Firefox due to browser restrictions.
• Manually: copy the URL click dApps in the top right corner, click "Connect dApp" and paste the copied URL.

Once you've connected a dApp, the connection stays permanently until you disconnect it. Although some dApps might require clicking "connect" every time you refresh them, just clicking "connect" and then "WalletConnect" should be sufficient.
