ℹ️ INFO
All articles show instructions based on the Subwallet browser extension, but the same instructions apply to the mobile app as well.
In any case where there are differences between the extension and the mobile app, we'll make sure to point them out or provide separate instructions.
Once you have created or imported your first account in Subwallet you'll be presented with the following screen.
As we navigate through this screen, you can click on the links to read instructions for that particular functionality.
1. At the top is the account selection drop-down menu from which you can select any of your accounts or all of them. What you see in all the other views depends on the account(s) you have selected from this menu, which is available on all screens.
From the same menu you can:
- Create a new account
- Restore an account from a mnemonic phrase or JSON file
- Import a Polkadot Vault or Ledger account
- Add a read-only account
2. From the configuration icons you can enable or disable the networks and tokens you want to see in your portfolio, and whether to show tokens with zero balance. From the "Manage tokens" menu you can also add custom tokens for chains that support smart contracts.
3. From this icon you can open up a new screen to adjust the wallet's settings.
4. With the little "eye" icon you can hide or show your balance.
5. With the "copy" icon you can Receive funds in your account(s).
6. With the "send" icon you can Transfer funds from your account(s).

If you have selected "All accounts" you can see details of the total balance (a) and the distribution of this token in your accounts (b).
9. Click on "Tokens" to access the main portfolio page.
