Over 700,000 users joined the waitlist, and today we’re thrilled to announce the official public release of the Uniswap Extension – now available for download on Chrome.
At Uniswap Labs, our mission is to unlock value by bringing it onchain. Recognizing that self-custody remains a hurdle for many crypto users, we launched the Uniswap mobile app in April 2023, swiftly becoming one of the fastest-growing self-custody wallets. Now, we’re extending that seamless experience to desktops with the Uniswap Extension, the first wallet designed to live in your browser’s sidebar.
A Modern Upgrade to Crypto Wallets
Say goodbye to outdated pop-up designs. The Uniswap Extension resides in your browser’s sidebar, staying accessible wherever you navigate online. No more disruptive pop-ups or misplaced transaction windows. Swap tokens, sign transactions, and manage crypto seamlessly from the sidebar.
