Before creating or importing a wallet
Know whether you are generating a new account or restoring an existing one and prepare a safe offline backup environment rather than entering recovery material into ordinary webpages. A useful way to understand this is to connect the concept with its operating conditions and the result recorded on-chain. imtoken focuses on making network, transaction and permission details understandable before users confirm an action. The wallet interface can prepare and display an action, but the selected network ultimately records transaction state, so a clickable button is not proof that every parameter is correct.
For practical use, define the intended outcome first and then review the items related to before creating or importing a wallet one by one. Confirm the network and account context, check the address, asset or requesting contract, and only then review fees, permissions and confirmation details. Separating these checks makes it easier to identify whether an unexpected result comes from the network, transaction parameters, a contract or local display state.
A helpful learning model for before creating or importing a wallet is to divide an action into preparation, submission, network confirmation and follow-up review. Know whether you are generating a new account or restoring an existing one and prepare a safe offline backup environment rather than entering recovery material into ordinary webpages. Preparation checks whether conditions match, submission checks the exact request, confirmation verifies what the network recorded, and follow-up review covers transaction history and any permissions that remain active.
- Confirm the network, account or requester related to before creating or importing a wallet
- Verify the address, network and amount before a transfer; consider a small test when appropriate
- Read signature and approval details instead of treating later requests as automatically trusted
- Keep the transaction hash or other information needed to verify on-chain status
What to do when the result differs from expectations
If the interface, network state or outcome does not match what you expected, avoid repeatedly submitting the same action. Confirm the active network and account, then use the transaction hash, a suitable block explorer or contract information to establish what has already happened. For before creating or importing a wallet, distinguishing a local display issue from a transaction already recorded on-chain is an important first step.
Receive assets only after backup is complete
Record and verify recovery material accurately, understand private-key control, and then begin receiving assets and managing networks.

Use a fixed checklist for receiving and sending
Receiving checks address and network; sending adds amount, asset, gas and destination verification instead of relying on memory.

Continue checking after the transaction
Keep the transaction hash, follow confirmation state and periodically review unexpected transactions, DApp connections and permissions you no longer need.
