Connect Your Wallet to RetinaOS for a Personalized Feed

Link a read-only wallet to RetinaOS to unlock a personalized feed, follow wallets you track, and access the Retina Wallet companion.

Connecting your wallet to RetinaOS unlocks a personalized experience — a feed of tokens held by wallets you follow, portfolio context, and access to the Retina Wallet policy engine. Wallet connections are read-only by default; you retain full custody of your funds at all times.

Read-Only vs. Execution Mode

RetinaOS supports two distinct wallet connection modes. The right choice depends on how you want to interact with on-chain data.

Mode	What it does	Custody
Read-only connect	Personalizes feed, enables wallet following	Never — view only
Retina Wallet	Constructs + submits transactions via your connected wallet	Never — you sign every transaction

RetinaOS never holds your private keys or custodies funds at any point.

Connect a Wallet (Read-Only)

1. Sign in to your account

   Go to app.retinaos.xyz and sign in.

2. Open the wallet connection prompt

   Click your profile icon in the top-right corner, then select Connect Wallet.

3. Choose your wallet provider

   Select your wallet from the list — MetaMask or any WalletConnect-compatible wallet.

4. Approve the read-only connection

   In your wallet, approve the connection request. This only requests view permissions — no transaction signing is involved.

5. Explore your personalized feed

   Your portfolio and followed wallets now appear in your personalized feed. RetinaOS surfaces tokens and events relevant to the addresses you track.

Supported Wallets

RetinaOS is compatible with any EVM-compatible wallet. Verified providers include:

• MetaMask — browser extension and mobile
• WalletConnect-compatible wallets — including Rainbow, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, and others
• Any EVM-compatible wallet — if your wallet supports EVM signing, it will work with the WalletConnect flow

Using Retina Wallet Execution Mode

Once your wallet is connected in read-only mode, you can opt into the Retina Wallet policy engine. This mode allows RetinaOS to construct proposed trade actions based on signals in your feed — but every action requires your explicit confirmation before anything is submitted on-chain. You remain in control at every step.

To learn more about configuring policies, setting execution limits, and reviewing proposed transactions, see the Retina Wallet overview.

Disconnecting a Wallet

To remove a connected wallet, go to your Profile → Connected Wallets and click Disconnect next to the address you want to remove. Disconnecting a wallet removes personalization from your feed but does not affect your RetinaOS account, saved alerts, or API keys.
