Polkadot Wallets
Polkadot Wallets
The integration of a wallet with Polkadot allows for simple and easy access to private keys and signing transactions. Below are some wallets that support Polkadot along with their development statuses.
Note that inclusion does not necessarily imply endorsement of that wallet. Polkadot support can provide assistance with issues related to Polkadot-JS, the Polkadot{.js} extension, or Parity Signer. For other wallet software, you should contact the developers of that wallet.
Encryption Enhancement
Some recently generated JSON
account files cannot be imported (restored) into older wallet
software. This is due to an enhanced encryption method, which is also noticeable in a slight delay
when encrypting/decrypting your wallet. If you are unable to load a JSON
file, please ensure that
you are using the latest version of the wallet software. If you are still unable to load it, ensure
that the wallet software is using the latest version of the
Polkadot API.
Supported Wallets
Wallet Name | Development State | Team Name | Description | Custody | Supports |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Parity Signer (see warning below) | Live | Parity | iOS and Android | Non-custodial | Staking |

Warning: Parity Signer currently does not allow you to see the transaction you are signing. This means that you are at risk if connected to a compromised version of Polkadot-JS. A fix is being worked on; please see this GitHub issue for more details.
Note: the wallets page is currently being reviewed. Currently only Parity-developed wallets are listed.
