2. First Time Using imKey Pass S6 with a Web3 Wallet

Step 1: Open the Web3 wallet page in Chrome

1. In the Chrome address bar, enter the Web3 wallet URL (make sure it is the official link).

Step 3: Insert imKey Pass S6

1. Insert imKey Pass S6 into the USB-C port of your computer.
2. Wait 1–2 seconds for Chrome to detect it.

4. Select “Security Key” or “Passkey Identifier.”

5. If this is the first time you use imKey Pass S6, the system will ask you to set a PIN.

6. After the PIN is verified, the page will prompt you to touch the fingerprint sensor on your security key to add a fingerprint.

Step 4: Touch the fingerprint sensor to complete verification

1. The system will ask you to touch the fingerprint sensor on your security key.
2. Use a registered finger to lightly touch the fingerprint sensor on imKey Pass S6 for about 1 second.
3. A prompt such as “Use your security key with Web.token.im” will appear.

4. When the pop-up disappears and the DApp page switches to the logged-in state (for example, the home page shows your account information), it means you have successfully created and bound the account with imKey Pass S6.

3. Logging In Again (Returning Users)

Next time you open the same Web3 wallet, you can log in using the same imKey Pass S6.

Step 1: Open the Web3 wallet page

3. Follow the prompt and touch the fingerprint area with a registered finger to complete identity verification.

After successful verification, the page will automatically:

• Recognize the Passkey account you previously created/bound
• Restore control of that Web3 wallet address (including viewing balances, initiating transactions, etc.)

4. Using imKey Pass S6 for a Web3 Wallet Operations

Different DApps have slightly different interfaces and features. Below are common interactions to show when imKey Pass S6 fingerprint verification will be triggered again.

View Balance / Asset List

• After connecting your wallet, you can view balances without additional fingerprint prompts.

Transactions / Signatures / Approvals

Using a token transfer as an example:

1. On the token home page, click “Send”.

2. Enter the recipient’s wallet address and transfer amount. After confirming everything is correct, click “Confirm to send”.

3. You will be taken to a transaction details / signature preview page. Review the information and click “Confirm”.

4. At this point, the browser will pop up a “Use your security key” prompt and ask you to touch the fingerprint sensor to confirm.

5. After you touch the fingerprint sensor on imKey Pass S6 and the verification is successful, the operation will actually be executed and recorded on-chain.

You can think of it this way:

Every time a DApp needs to “make sure it’s really you performing this operation”, it will ask you to do another fingerprint verification with imKey Pass S6.

5. Security Best Practices

1) Use only on trusted devices

• Prefer using imKey Pass S6 on your own, trusted computers.
• If unavoidable, disconnect and remove the device after use.

2) Confirm official links

• Access Web3 wallets via imToken / imKey official websites, official documentation, or in-DApp official entry points.
• Avoid clicking unknown short links or “airdrop / bonus / reward” links, and beware of phishing sites.

3) Protect your device and PIN

• Never share  your PIN. 
• Do not lend your imKey Pass S6 to anyone.
• It is recommended to prepare an additional backup imKey Pass S6 and bind both the primary and backup keys to important accounts to reduce single-point failure risk.
• Use the primary device for daily operations and store the backup device separately in a safe place, not together with the primary one.
• Anyone who has both your device and PIN may be able to operate your Web3 accounts.

4) If Your Device Is Lost

Take immediate action:

• Log in to the related Web3 wallet / service as soon as possible and transfer your assets.
• Remove or replace the passkey on services such as Google, CEX platforms, etc.
• Follow each service’s “reset security key / device management” process to complete subsequent security actions.
