Automatically Detecting NFTs on MetaMask on Mobile

MetaMask mobile can automatically find NFTs on the Ethereum mainnet. This saves you from entering smart contract details manually. Note that you need to enable this feature for other networks manually.

While MetaMask makes managing NFTs easy, it’s not ideal for long-term storage. Using a hardware wallet like Ledger is safer. It protects against scams and hacks.

Though MetaMask is handy for buying and selling NFTs, storing them in a separate hardware wallet is safer. This approach reduces the risk of losing assets due to scams or security issues.

How to Add NFTs to MetaMask on Desktop

It’s easy to add NFTs to your MetaMask on a desktop. Just follow these steps to bring your favorite NFTs into your MetaMask wallet. This makes managing them very simple.

1. Download and install the MetaMask browser extension for your preferred browser
2. Open MetaMask and either create a new wallet or sign in with your existing account
3. Find the NFT’s smart contract address and token ID. You can obtain this information from popular platforms like OpenSea
4. In the MetaMask extension, go to the “NFT” tab and click on “Import Token”
5. Select the “Custom Token” tab
6. Paste the smart contract address in the designated field
7. Fill in the token decimal as “0”
8. Click “Add Custom Token”

After following these steps, you’ll see your NFT in your MetaMask wallet on desktop. Now, you can easily view and manage your NFTs with your other tokens.

MetaMask Portfolio is a standalone app that complements MetaMask and helps manage tokens, including NFTs.

Sometimes, the autodetect feature might not show all NFTs correctly in the dapp. This is due to how data is collected. But, most NFTs should display properly.

If your NFTs don’t show up automatically, you can refresh the token list or add them by hand. This is useful on EVM-compatible chains like Polygon or BNB Smart Chain. For these chains, adding NFTs manually is a must.

To turn on NFT detection in MetaMask, head to Settings > Security & privacy. Then, enable what’s needed there.

Please remember, MetaMask desktop doesn’t support ERC-1155 tokens. However, it fully works with the ERC-721 standard.
