Anon Wallet

Settings & Configuration

Access settings by clicking the gear icon in the Anon sidebar.

Security Settings

Session Timeout

Configure how long Anon stays unlocked after your last interaction. Options:

  • 5 minutes
  • 15 minutes (default)
  • 1 hour
  • 4 hours
  • Until browser close

After the timeout, Anon requires re-authentication (passkey tap or password entry) to unlock.

Auto-Lock on OS Lock

When enabled, Anon locks immediately when your operating system locks (screen lock, sleep). This is on by default.

Change Password

If you use password authentication, you can change your password in Security → Change Password. You'll need to enter your current password and confirm the new one. Your encrypted key material is re-encrypted with the new password.

Network Configuration

RPC Endpoints

Anon connects to EVM networks via RPC endpoints. Default endpoints are provided for all supported networks. To use a custom RPC:

  1. Go to Settings → Networks
  2. Select the network
  3. Enter your RPC URL
  4. Tap Save

Custom RPCs are useful if you run your own node or have a private RPC from a provider like Alchemy or Infura.

Broadcaster Network

Choose your preferred transaction mode:

  • Waku — decentralized broadcaster network
  • Paymaster — Anon's gas sponsorship service
  • Self-broadcast — direct submission from your public address

See Broadcaster Network for details.

Backup & Recovery

View Recovery Phrase

To view your 12-word mnemonic:

  1. Go to Settings → Backup
  2. Authenticate (passkey or password)
  3. Your mnemonic is displayed — write it down immediately

For security, Anon never copies the mnemonic to your clipboard automatically.

Export Private Key

You can export the private key for your public EOA. This is useful if you want to import your account into another wallet. The private key is shown after authentication.

Linked Wallets

You can link additional public Ethereum addresses to your Anon profile (e.g., a Ledger hardware wallet or a Watch-only address). Linked wallets are display-only — Anon can show their balances but cannot sign transactions for them unless you import the private key.

Profile Management

Settings → Profile lets you manage your .anon.buzz username, avatar, display name, bio, and social links. See Usernames for full details.
