MetaMaskᵀᴹ extension®

Available as a browser extension and as a mobile app, MetaMask equips you with a key vault, secure login, token wallet, and token exchange—everything you need to manage …

What does MetaMask’s browser extension do?

MetaMask’s extension opens up access between your web browser and decentralized applications (dApps) built on Ethereum or Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible networks. You can think of it like this:

When you install MetaMask, it converts your web browser's language into Ethereum's, letting you do things like interact with dApps, sign transactions, and create or manage your Ethereum identity.

Additionally, MetaMask acts as a wallet, meaning it keeps your digital assets safe and helps you manage transactions on the blockchain. It's like having a specialized pocket in your browser where you can securely store and access your digital assets.
