Now that you have an Ethereum wallet, you can login to certain websites using it. Instead of creating new accounts and passwords for every website you interact with, you'll just connect your wallet instead. This lets you control your identity and take your assets/items with you all around the internet.
Connecting using our in-app Browser:
Once you access the [browser] (← link to dapp browser article here) you’ll search for the dapp you’re looking to connect to. You’ll then proceed with their standard connection flow!
If Rainbow is a connection option, you’ll select that to connect.
If there is no Rainbow option, you’ll want to tap the MetaMask option to connect.
If you select the WalletConnect option, you’ll receive a pop-up that explains WalletConnect is not necessary in the in-app browser and to move forward with the other connection routes!
