How to Save Your Wallet?

There are two ways to save your wallet. One is to store it in your browser's local storage, and the other option is to save it to your computer as a keystore file. Both methods use encryption to securely store your password.

Saving your wallet to Browser's local storage

The Camino Wallet provides a feature to safely save your wallet to your browser's local storage for easy access in the future.

Ensure That You Have Your Key Phrase

Please keep in mind that this feature uses your browser's local storage to save your wallet in a secure and encrypted format.

If you lose your password, clear your browser's cache, or if your computer is lost, stolen, or malfunctions, you may not be able to access your saved wallet.

In any of those cases, you will need your key phrase to recover your wallet.

Open the Save Account Dialog

To save your wallet, first, click on the dropdown menu located in the top right corner of the screen.

Fill in the Form

Once the "Save Account" dialog box is open, you will need to fill in the required information to save your wallet.

First, choose a name for your wallet. This name can be anything you choose, but make sure it is unique and easy for you to remember.

Next, create a strong and secure password for your wallet. Ideally, your password should be at least 8 characters long and should include a combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Remember to keep your password secure and do not share it with anyone.

Verify Your Saved Wallet

Once you have saved your wallet, you can verify that it has been successfully saved by checking the top right corner of the Camino Wallet interface. You should see the name of your saved wallet displayed in place of the "Login" button.

If you see your wallet name, it means that your wallet has been successfully saved and is now accessible from your browser's local storage. Congratulations!
