WalletConnect is an open protocol that allows your mobile wallet to connect with DApps securely. It facilitates interaction between wallets and DApps without exposing your private keys, ensuring that your assets remain secure during transactions.

AirGap Wallet also supports DApp connections via WalletConnect. As WalletConnect is supported by numerous DApps, it provides you with a vast ecosystem to explore.

By pairing AirGap Wallet with Wallet Connect, you can benefit from its wide availability in DApps without sacrificing your security.

One thing that should also be noted is that Wallet Connect works on AirGap Wallet and not AirGap Vault. This way, AirGap makes sure that your private keys are always in isolation.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to connect a DApp with AirGap Wallet using Wallet Connect and how to make transactions with it.

This guide is for those who already have AirGap set up. For those who don’t have it setup, check out our separate guide here.
