Short answer: Trust Wallet supports hundreds of coins and thousands of tokens across multiple blockchains, including Ethereum-based tokens and many non-EVM ecosystems. To know whether a specific coin is supported, use the app's token manager or add it as a custom token by pasting the token contract address. In my experience this usually takes less than a minute.
And yes, the desktop experience relies on WalletConnect and external dApps rather than a separate full desktop app.
Rather than a fixed "supported coins list," Trust Wallet is built as a multi-chain software wallet that handles:
That means it can hold a mix of native coins and tokens from many blockchains. Which coins you can actually send/receive depends on whether the wallet has a matching network/token UI (or whether you add a custom token). If you need more detail on how multi-chain works, see the multi-chain support guide.

If you're asking "what coins are supported by trust wallet" or "what coins can trust wallet support," here's a simple way to check on a phone.
If you prefer reading step-by-step visuals, check the add-custom-token and add-custom-tokens guides for screenshots.
Not every token is listed by default. I once missed a token because I didn’t paste the right contract address — so double-check the source (block explorer or the project's official page).
How to add a custom token:
(If the auto-fill fails, double-check the address and decimals on the chain explorer before saving.)
See step-by-step screenshots in add-custom-token.
Short list of token standards you’ll encounter:
Each standard lives on a different blockchain with different gas fee mechanics. For example, ETH and many EVM-compatible chains use transaction fees paid in the native coin (ETH, MATIC, AVAX, etc.). Solana fees work differently and are typically much lower per transaction. If you move a token on the wrong network (say sending an ERC-20 token to a BEP20 address) you can lose funds — so always confirm the network when sending.

Common checks:
If you still have trouble, see troubleshooting-token-not-showing for targeted fixes.
Spam or airdrop tokens are common. They can look like free money, but interacting with unknown tokens can open a malicious approval. Here’s my checklist:
But sometimes you still make a mistake (I have). If that happens, revoke approvals and move funds to a fresh wallet after importing a new seed phrase (see backup-recovery).
| Feature | Mobile app (iOS/Android) | Desktop (WalletConnect / dApp) |
|---|---|---|
| Full token management | Yes | Limited — relies on the mobile app for token UI |
| Add custom token | Yes (in-app) | Add via mobile, then use desktop dApp to interact |
| dApp browsing | In-app browser (availability may vary) | Connect via WalletConnect to web dApps |
| In-app swap | Available on mobile | Use desktop DEX UI when connected |
| NFT viewing | Basic NFT gallery | Most NFT sites work through WalletConnect |

Q: Is it safe to keep crypto in a hot wallet?
A: Hot wallets are convenient for daily use, but carry more risk than hardware wallets. For large long-term holdings, consider moving most funds to a hardware wallet and using a hot wallet for smaller active balances.
Q: How do I revoke token approvals?
A: Use the revoke-token-approvals guide. I revoked an approval after a suspicious dApp prompted me, and that saved me from a later exploit.
Q: What happens if I lose my phone?
A: You can restore your wallet on a new device with your seed phrase (seed phrase = recovery phrase). If you don’t have the seed phrase backed up, funds are effectively unrecoverable. See backup-recovery and lost-phone-recovery.
Q: Does the wallet work in my country?
A: The software is available in many countries, but buy/sell features and some third-party services may be restricted. See supported-countries-limits for details.
If you're checking "what coins are supported by trust wallet" or building a list of supported coins, start inside the mobile app's token manager and use custom token addition when needed. I find that taking one careful step—confirming the contract address and the network—prevents 95% of the common mistakes.
Want to add your first custom token or back up your seed phrase next? See these quick how-to pages: add-custom-token, backup-recovery, and walletconnect.
If you want more hands-on troubleshooting, check troubleshooting-token-not-showing or the token-management-portfolio guide.
Happy testing — and remember: hot wallets are convenient, but double-check network choices before sending funds.
