Trust Wallet adds a network through its Custom Network flow, where you enter the network name, RPC URL, and chain ID. If you manage assets on an EVM-compatible chain, this is the setup you use to make that network show up in the wallet.
In Trust Wallet, “add network” usually means adding a custom network, not turning on a standard token list. You are telling Trust Wallet how to connect to a blockchain by supplying the network’s connection details.
The key fields shown in the Trust Wallet custom network setup are the network name, RPC URL, and chain ID. Depending on the network, you may also need the native currency symbol and a block explorer URL.
Use the Trust Wallet mobile app if you want to add a network directly on your phone. The flow referenced in the search results is straightforward and starts from the app settings.
After you save the network, it should appear in your Trust Wallet network list. From there, you can switch to that network and interact with assets or dApps that use it.
On iPhone, the path shown in the search results is Settings > Networks > Add Custom Network. If you are trying to add a network and cannot find the option, start by checking that you are in the correct settings menu inside the Trust Wallet app.
If the networks option is not visible on your iPhone, update the app first. Some users also report that the mobile app may not expose the same workflow at all times, so the browser extension can be a fallback when the iOS app does not cooperate.
Trust Wallet needs accurate chain information to connect to a custom network. If one field is wrong, the network may fail to load or transactions may not broadcast correctly.
The network name is the label you’ll see inside Trust Wallet. Use the exact name commonly associated with the chain so you can identify it quickly later.
The RPC URL is the connection endpoint Trust Wallet uses to talk to the blockchain. If the RPC URL is down, slow, or incorrect, the network may not work.
The chain ID identifies the network and helps prevent transaction errors. Make sure the chain ID matches the network you want to add.
Some custom network forms include extra fields such as the native currency symbol and block explorer URL. These fields help Trust Wallet display balances correctly and make it easier to inspect transactions.
If you add a network but do not see it right away, the issue is usually one of three things: missing or incorrect details, an app display issue, or a platform limitation on the version you are using.
Recheck every field carefully before saving. If the network still does not appear, try restarting the app or using the browser extension workflow mentioned by users who ran into the same issue on iOS.
If the Trust Wallet mobile app does not let you add the network you need, the Chrome extension is a practical alternative. Some users choose the extension specifically because it exposes the network setup more reliably on desktop than the iOS app does.
This is especially useful if you are bridging assets and need to add the destination network before interacting with them. In that case, adding the network through the extension can save time while you wait for mobile support or a later app update.
Use a trusted source for every network field you enter. A wrong RPC endpoint or chain ID can cause failed connections, missing balances, or transaction problems.
When you add a network correctly, Trust Wallet becomes more useful for multi-chain activity. You can switch between supported networks and manage assets without rebuilding the setup each time.
Open Trust Wallet, go to Settings, tap Networks, and choose Add Custom Network. Then enter the network name, RPC URL, and chain ID, plus any extra fields the network requires, and save the setup.
On iPhone, the path shown in the search results is Settings > Networks > Add Custom Network. If you do not see it, update the app and check whether your version exposes the same network menu.
Trust Wallet typically needs the network name, RPC URL, and chain ID. Some networks also require a currency symbol and block explorer URL so the wallet can display and track the chain properly.
Some users do not see the option on iOS because of app version differences or interface limitations. If the mobile app does not work for your setup, the Trust Wallet Chrome extension is a common fallback.
