Dapp Connections

Each time a user connects their Account to a new Dapp, you should receive a popup in Frame requesting permission for the connection, as described in the Connecting to a Dapp guide.

If you encounter issues connecting to a dapp, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve the problem.

Troubleshooting​

  1. Check the Dapp Permissions:

    • Open Frame and scroll down to the Dapps module.
    • Locate the website URL you want to connect with and check if the permission for the dapp is present.
    • If the permission is available, ensure it is enabled (indicated by a green status). If it is not available, Frame will create it upon connection.

  2. Clear Local Storage and Cookies:

    • Clear your browser's local storage and cookies, which can sometimes resolve connection issues.

  3. Close and Re-open Browser:

    • Close your browser completely and then reopen it. Sometimes restarting the browser can help establish a fresh connection.

  4. Restart Frame:

    • Restart the Frame application itself to ensure all components are running smoothly.
    • You can quit Frame either within the app menu or by right-clicking the Frame icon in your menu bar.

  5. Disable Browser Extensions:

    • Temporarily disable all extensions in your browser except for the Frame Companion.
    • If you are using Brave browser, disabling the Brave wallet can be an easy fix. The Brave Wallet currently takes priority over all other wallet connections when interacting with dapps.
    • Disabling extensions helps rule out any conflicts that might occur with the injection of providers, as most wallet browser extensions use the same window.ethereum object.

  6. Check Developer Console:

    • Open the developer console of the dapp you wish to connect to.
    • Look for any errors or warnings related to wallet connection in the console and report this to the team through a support post.

  7. Try a Different Browser:

    • If possible, try using a different browser with only the Frame Companion extension installed.
    • This helps determine if the issue is specific to the browser you were using.
