### What is this about?
Hi there
On my Smartphone (Samsung Galaxy A40, Android v11.x) i need to do all these steps after i imported/authenticated my wallet via seedphrase - but not in Chrome browser extension plugin:
__________________________________________
1.)
MetaMask starten und authentifizieren (per Kennwort oder Fingerabdruck)
2.)
Unter Tab "Settings" [unten] folgendes wählen:
"Netzwerke" → "Netzwerk hinzufügen" → Tab "Benutzerdefiniert"
3.)
Im Netzwerk-"Formular" folgendes eintragen (ohne die '):
3.1)
Netzwerkname:
'Gnosis'
3.2) RPC-URL:
https://rpc.gnosischain.com
3.2.1)
RPC-Name (ist erst nach Klicks auf "RPC-URL" [Punkt 3.2] -> "RPC-URL hinzufügen" ersichtlich):
'Gnosis Chain'
3.3)
Chain-ID:
'100'
3.4)
Symbol:
'xDAI'
3.5)
Block-Explorer-URL:
https://gnosisscan.io
4.)
MetaMask-App vollständig schliessen (sprich: beenden des MetaMask-App-Prozess' - falls notwendig ggf. Smartphone neu starten!) und wieder aufrufen
4.1)
Anschliessend sollte die "Gnosis Chain" mit dem entsprechenden "Monerium EURE"-Eintrag [Betrag!] ersichtlich sein und Überweisungen auf die Gnosis VISA-Debitkarte können von nun an vorgenommen werden
__________________________________________
Question: Why this inconsistency? This is very, very confusing - at least for all users they use it for the 1st time, ;-)
I.m.o: Maybe it would be an advantage, to implement it [some background processes after importing seedphrase for all users they use Gnosis chain] as same as on the browser plugin?
-> If there are any questions, so please don't hesitate to ask me. Thanks in advance.
Best regards
