TokenPocket is a multi-chain and multi-cryptocurrency wallet that is also home to hundreds of different decentralized applications. It is available for Android and iOS as well as desktop. The TokenPocket wallet offers numerous features inside the app like the ability to trade, sell and buy your tokens through a decentralized exchange.

TokenPocket offers robust security because it does not store any of your private keys on the device and the app is protected through different layers of encryption. The Wallet supports the EOS, Bitcoin, ETH, IOST, TRON, Binance, BOS, Cosmos, MOAC and Jingtum chains.

How to Download and Install on Mobile and PC

TokenPocket is available on the App Store as well as on Google Play here. Important note: the iOS version does not include the dApp browser option inside the wallet unless you download the ‘pro version’ which is in beta.

In order to download the pro version of the wallet, you will need to download the ‘TestFlight’ app for iOS. The TokenPocket original app comes with a Data Migration feature that will allow you to synchronize important data to the Pro version in case you have been using the regular version already.

Similarly, you can go to https://www.tokenpocket.pro/en/download/pc and download the desktop version available for Mac and Windows.

Here you can change the blockchain you want to use by simply tapping on ‘Switch’ and picking from a wide range of chains available. The application also asks you about importing an existing account, creating a new one or simply enjoying the rest of the app through the visitor mode.

Once you have chosen an option you will be able to see your holdings, how much they are worth and many more features specific to each chain.

Sending or receiving cryptocurrencies is fairly easy and you also have the option to swap your coins for tokens or vice-versa.
