This guide walks you through creating a new Arweave wallet in DDisk.

Before You Begin

Make sure you have:
  • DDisk installed on your iOS device
  • A secure place to store your wallet backup
  • Creating a New Wallet

  • Open DDisk
  • Tap "Create New Wallet"
  • DDisk generates a new wallet using secure random number generation

    Your wallet consists of:
  • Public Address: Safe to share, used to receive AR
  • Private Key: Never share, stored in your JWK file
  • Balance: Amount of AR tokens you own
  • Security Tips

  • Never share your JWK file
  • Use a strong device passcode
  • Enable biometric authentication
  • Keep your backup in a secure location
