How to update a Snap
MetaMask Snaps opens up a realm of new possibilities to your MetaMask, and to make the most of your Snaps, keeping them up-to-date is essential.
Update a Snap
If you've previously installed a Snap and a new version is available, you can easily update it from the dapp or website where you installed it. This guide will walk you through the simple steps to update a Snap.
-
Ensure you've unlocked your MetaMask instance, then navigate to the dapp or website where you initially installed the Snap.
-
Upon connecting to the dapp or website, if an update is available, you'll receive a prompt notifying you that an update is ready to be downloaded for the Snap you previously installed.
The Snap might request new, additional permissions it previously didn't have access to; carefully review these.
If you're comfortable with the newly requested permissions, click the "Update" button to proceed with updating the Snap.
- You're all set! You 've successfully updated the Snap to the latest version. 🚀
