Yes — Trust Wallet supports Solana (SOL) and SPL tokens for basic wallet functions like receive, send, and holding balances. If your search was "does trust wallet support solana" this is the short answer. In my experience the mobile app handles SOL transfers reliably, and it shows balances and most common SPL tokens.
That said, not every advanced Solana feature is guaranteed inside the app (for example, native staking interfaces or full-featured Solana dApp adapters can be limited). What I've found is that Trust Wallet is solid for everyday sending/receiving and light DeFi activity, but you may need extra tools for complex staking or NFT workflows.
Solana is not an EVM chain. Transactions use lamports (small units of SOL) for fees, and tokens follow the SPL standard. There are some mechanics you should understand:
Knowing this helps when a transfer fails or a token isn’t visible (more on that below).
Can you buy SOL inside the app? Yes — there is an in-app "Buy" flow that lets you purchase SOL with a card or bank options depending on your country. Availability and limits depend on third-party providers and local regulations.
A short how-to:
Be careful about fees. Third-party providers add spread and processing fees. If low-cost on-ramps are important, compare options (or use an exchange and withdraw to your wallet).
Here are step-by-step actions for common tasks.
How to send SOL:
How to send an SPL token:
How to add a custom SPL token (quick):
And always check the transaction history after sending. I lost time once because a recipient address was on a different network (a painful lesson).
Trust Wallet can show some NFTs, but Solana NFT support inside mobile wallets tends to be patchy across apps. You may see collection images and basic metadata, but advanced actions (royalty breakdowns, full collection galleries, or rich metadata) sometimes require a dedicated Solana NFT viewer.
If an NFT doesn’t appear:

Solana dApps often expect a Solana wallet adapter (a different connect method than WalletConnect, which is mostly EVM-focused). That means connecting to many Solana dApps from a mobile hot wallet can be hit-or-miss.
Bridges: moving assets between Solana and EVM chains involves wrapped tokens and third-party bridges. These work but carry extra smart-contract risk and possible delays. If you plan to bridge often, budget for time and small fees and double-check token standards after bridging.
Trust Wallet is a non-custodial software wallet. That means you control the private keys via a seed phrase. A few practical points:
But remember: convenience comes with trade-offs. For larger long-term holdings, a hardware wallet is safer.
Here’s a simple comparison table for common form-factor trade-offs:
| Use case | Mobile app (Trust Wallet) | Browser extension / Desktop (general) |
|---|---|---|
| Quick sends / receives | Yes (easy) | Depends on desktop app used |
| Solana dApp compatibility | Partial (mobile flows) | Often better if native Solana adapter is supported |
| NFT gallery & management | Basic | Usually more advanced tools available |
| Staking delegation UI | Varies | Often richer staking dashboards |

Who it's a good fit for:
Who should look elsewhere:
Q: Is it safe to keep crypto in a hot wallet? A: Hot wallets are convenient for daily use but carry higher risk than hardware wallets. I believe a good rule is: keep only the funds you use regularly in a hot wallet; store long-term holdings offline.
Q: How do I revoke token approvals? A: On Solana, typical SPL transfers don’t use allowance-style approvals. For EVM approvals, use a revoke tool and follow the steps in revoke-token-approvals.
Q: What happens if I lose my phone? A: If you have your seed phrase, restore on a new device via restore-import-wallet. If you don’t, funds are likely unrecoverable — that’s the downside of non-custodial wallets.
Trust Wallet does support SOL and SPL tokens for standard tasks like sending, receiving, and holding. It’s handy for mobile-first users, but you should be honest about trade-offs: limited Solana dApp adapter support, variable NFT handling, and the usual hot-wallet security considerations. Want deeper setup help? Check the Add custom token, NFT guide, and Backup & recovery pages for step-by-step instructions.
If you plan to buy SOL in-app, follow the Buy flow carefully and keep your seed phrase offline. And if you do significant staking, bridging, or NFT trading, consider pairing your mobile wallet with a more specialized tool.
Happy on-chain—ask if you want a walk-through of a specific SOL transaction or an SPL token setup (I’ve made the mistakes so you don’t have to).
