Our aim is to help developers make onboarding more reliable and secure, to deliver a delightful and consistent experience to you, their user.

</aside>

If you are here, it likely means you have created an embedded wallet through Privy and are ready to explore web3 beyond the initial app you came in through.

Neither Privy nor the app you are using have any access to your wallet or assets. Privy simply helps you secure and mange the cryptographic keys through which you control these assets. Accordingly, to take these assets into the wider ecosystem of apps, Privy makes it easy for you to transfer these keys into a third-party wallet that natively integrates with these apps.

<aside> 📲 For instance — You signed up for Strawberry Fields (example app) with your email and bought your first NFT. You see that the value of the NFT has increased and are excited to list it on OpenSea (NFT marketplace). You are going to need to access your assets from outside Strawberry Fields. Don’t worry, it’s not too hard. Here’s how 👇.
