# How to connect a WalletConnect account

To use the NFT STARS platform, you need to connect a WalletConnect or MetaMask wallet to it. We have described the process for creating a MetaMask wallet in this [guide](https://docs.nftstars.app/nft-stars/guides/how-to-connect-a-metamask-account). Now let’s discuss how to create and use WalletConnect.

### How to install WalletConnect

WalletConnect is not an app, but a protocol supported by many different decentralized applications and wallets. You can install any [mobile wallet](https://registry.walletconnect.org/wallets) that supports the WalletConnect protocol. WalletConnect wallets are available for Android and iPhone.

### How to use WalletConnect to connect to NFT STARS
