  1. You'll be directed to the Chrome Extension Store to add MetaMask Flask. This is a developer-centric version of MetaMask where experimental features like Snaps are tested before their stable release. To test Snaps today, you'll need to install Flask. Just click on 'Add to Chrome'.

  1. Once installed, you'll spot the Metamask Flask extension icon. Proceed by setting up a new wallet or importing an existing one, and grant necessary permissions.

<aside> 📌 Note:

  1. You can import an existing Cosmos wallet seed phrase into Flask to access your current Cosmos tokens. We recommend using a wallet with limited token amounts due to Flask's experimental nature. Alternatively, you could set up a new wallet and transfer a nominal amount for testing.

2. For Snaps to work, you will have to disable all other EVM wallet extensions on your browser, such as the regular Metamask extension, Coinbase wallet, Rabby, etc. This can be achieved by navigating to chrome://extensions/ and toggling off the unwanted extensions.
