Fordefi’s unified browser extension enables you to seamlessly connect to thousands of DApps across various blockchains, submit your transactions, and monitor their progress.
The extension also lets you natively stake your assets on all the supported Proof-of-Stake chains with various staking providers.
Through the power of Fordefi’s transaction enrichment system, the extension presents you with insightful details on each transaction, so that you can verify its integrity, understand and mitigate any risks, and understand the transaction’s impact on your vault.
The Fordefi extension is available at the Chrome Web Store.
For more information on installing and updating the browser extension and on using it to connect to DApps, see Work with DApps.
The Fordefi mobile app is where you make decisions: you use it to allow or block any action that requires approval, such as a transaction, or policy change.
You download the Fordefi app to a mobile device running iOS or Android. Then, when you activate your Fordefi account, your device becomes provisioned to be the secure storage for your cryptographic key-share.
Fordefi's REST API is provided for performing actions programmatically.
