# Web App & Extensions

Set up the Solflare browser extension for Chrome, Brave, Edge, Firefox, Opera, and Arc: create a wallet, connect a Ledger or Keystone, or import a wallet.

The Solflare browser extension is the recommended way to use Solflare on a computer. It is a self-custody Solana wallet that runs in Chrome, Brave, Edge, Firefox, Opera, and Arc, and Solana apps connect to it directly. Install it from the [Chrome Web Store](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/solflare-wallet/bhhhlbepdkbapadjdnnojkbgioiodbic?utm_source=docs.solflare.com\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_campaign=gitbook_browser_extension), or find the right version for your browser on the [Solflare download page](https://www.solflare.com/download/).

#### Why use the extension

The extension keeps your encrypted wallet inside your own browser profile and asks you to approve every connection and transaction in a Solflare pop-up. That makes it harder for a fake website to impersonate your wallet. Install it only from the official store links on the Solflare download page, and check that the publisher is Solflare.

#### Ways to set up the extension

* **Create a new wallet** with Quick Login (Google sign-in) or with a recovery phrase you store yourself.
* **Connect a Ledger** hardware wallet over USB.
* **Connect a Keystone** hardware wallet by scanning a QR code.
* **Import an existing Solana wallet** with a recovery phrase, private key, or Keystore file.

#### Extension setup guides

* Generate a New Wallet
* Import Your Ledger Device
* Import Your Keystone Device
* Import any Solana Wallet

Once your wallet is set up, see [how to connect Solflare to Solana apps](https://help.solflare.com/en/articles/5797210).
