MetaMask is a web browser extension and mobile app that allows you to manage your [[Ethereum]] [[private keys]]. By doing so, it serves as a wallet for Ether and other tokens, and allows you to interact with decentralized applications, or ''[[Decentralized Applications (DApps)|dapps]]''. Unlike some wallets, MetaMask keeps no information on you: not your email address, not your password, and not your Secret Recovery Phrase or other private keys. You retain all power over your crypto-identity.<ref>https://metamask.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015489531-Getting-started-with-MetaMask</ref> | MetaMask is a web browser extension and mobile app that allows you to manage your [[Ethereum]] [[private keys]].

https://metamask.io/ | MetaMask Flask is an experimental playground for developers, where new or proposed features can be rolled out and tested before deploying them to the broader public. | ||
=== MetaMask Snaps === | |||
Snaps is a system that allows anyone to safely expand the capabilities of MetaMask. A "snap" is a program that we run in an isolated environment that can customize the wallet experience. For example, a snap can add new APIs to MetaMask, add support for different blockchain protocols, or modify existing functionality using internal APIs. | |||
Snaps are run in an isolated environment where they have access to a limited set of capabilities, determined by the permissions they were granted by the user during installation | |||
