Having trouble using WalletConnect? Don't worry, most issues are easy to resolve. Here are some of the most common misconceptions and troubleshooting steps:
Misconception 1: "My money is stored in WalletConnect."
Answer: Absolutely not! WalletConnect is just a communication protocol; it does not host any assets or private keys. Your assets are always securely stored in your own wallet.
Misconception 2: "WalletConnect is an app."
Answer: No, it is an open-source standard built into wallets and dApps. You do not need to download a standalone app called 'WalletConnect'.
Common troubleshooting:
Q: Why is there no response after I scan the QR code?
Check Network: Ensure your phone and computer have a stable internet connection.
Restart App: Completely close the wallet app on your phone and the browser on your computer, then reopen and try again.
Clear Session: Disconnect from the old connection with the dApp in your wallet, then try to reconnect.
Q: Why does the connection always disconnect automatically?
Security Mechanism: For security reasons, some wallets and dApps set session timeouts. It is normal to disconnect after a long period of inactivity.
Network Fluctuations: An unstable network connection may also cause session disconnections.
Q: I am connected, but the transaction request is not pushed to my phone.
Check Phone Notification Permissions: Make sure you allow the wallet app to send notifications.
App Background Refresh: Check your phone settings to ensure the wallet app can run and refresh in the background.
