How to update the version of MetaMask

To find your wallet's version please navigate to Settings > About.

• Extension
• Mobile

MetaMask Extension automatically updates when you lock and then unlock the app. To do this, click on the three vertical dots in the upper right hand corner, and click on 'Lock MetaMask'.

Enter your password and unlock MetaMask.

If this doesn't work, you can also try forcing an update:

1. Right-click on the MetaMask icon in your toolbar. Click 'Manage extension'.

2. You'll now be looking at a page with more information about the extension. On Chrome-based browsers, flick the toggle in the top right to turn on developer mode.

3. From here you can:

Chrome-based browsers: Click the 'Update' button in the additional toolbar that appears when you turn on developer mode.

Firefox: Click on the settings icon at the top, and then on 'Check for updates'. If there is a new update, you'll be able to manually install it from here.

4. Make sure you toggle "Developer Mode" back to off. Developer mode turns off a number of vital security checks, so we strongly recommend you keep it off for daily MetaMask use.

Check your app store for your current version. Based on the mobile device, this could be the App Store for iOS, or Google Play for Android. Look for the MetaMask app and update accordingly.
