# Introduction
Flash wallet is a non-custodial mobile wallet built on Hedera Hashgraph allowing users to manage fungible and non-fungible hedera tokens in the most secure way. Wallet primarily aims at providing the best user experience and usability while keeping in mind the top grade security practices to handle the on ledger assets and transactions with blazing speed of the Hashgraph network.
### Why Flash Wallet ?
#### Private and Secure
The Wallet is purely non-custodial and hence all the private keys are stored in the device itself with nothing stored and transmitted over the network. Users own their keys and no personal data is collected by the wallet.
In IOS, keys are stored using the [keychain services](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/keychain_services) as `kSecClassGenericPassword`. iOS has the additional option of being able to set the value's `kSecAttrAccessible` attribute, which controls when the value is available to be fetched.
In Android, Keys are stored in [`SharedPreferences`](https://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/shared-preferences.html), encrypted with [Android's Keystore system](https://developer.android.com/training/articles/keystore.html).
#### NFT Gallery Support
We have put a lot of effort into finding the most efficient ways to display the non-fungible tokens minted on Hedera. Our wallet shows the NFT collections and legacy tokens via our flexible APIs specifically made to render fast and accurate data. We maintain our own database of the collectibles to ensure an optimally and hassle-free user experience.
#### Token Management
The wallet provides a good interface to manage all your hedera tokens. You can view, transfer and associate n number of tokens with our in-app token management system. The interface provides all details and information needed to ensure the transaction in the most efficient and easy way.
#### Dapps Integration
Flash wallet signin feature allows dapps to establish the connection with our wallet with just a simple QR code scan. Users can sign the transactions straight from their wallets without exposing their keys to the browser and any third party. Create accounts, send HBAR, trigger smart contracts, associate tokens or any other hedera transactions with just a press of a button without any fear of exposing your keys.
\
The Flash Wallet uses Wallet Connect open protocol to sign the transactions. The protocol establishes a remote connection between two apps and/or devices using a Bridge server to relay payloads. These payloads are symmetrically encrypted through a shared key between the two peers. The connection is initiated by one peer displaying a QR Code with a standard WalletConnect URI and is established when the counter-party approves this connection request.
