On the occasion of the seventh anniversary of imToken, we decided to express our gratitude to our users in a special way — by listening to user needs and turning these needs into practical product features.
After a month of focused development, we have unveiled seven brand-new features. This article will provide a detailed explanation of how to use these new features. Let's explore the seven sweet surprises inspired by user insights.
1. Real-Time Home Screen Token Analytics
The update optimizes the imToken home screen, adding displays for token unit prices, appreciation & depreciation rates, and token names, allowing users to quickly grasp essential information about their wallet holdings. Additionally, they can easily turn on/off the information according to their needs and preferences. This gives them more personalized experiences.
△Token Information Display
Steps for displaying token information: Go to the asset home page, long-press any asset in the token list, and you will be able to select and display the 'price fluctuation' and 'full name of the token.'
2. New "Revoke" Entrance
The imToken homepage has added a "Revoke" entrance feature. You can now access the Revoke Authorization Management page with a single click. Here, you can view the authorization status of your address under any network and perform operations such as canceling authorizations, making it easy to manage and monitor the authorization status of your transactions. This feature is currently active on Ethereum, Layer2s, and other EVM-compatible chains.
△check authorization
Steps to check authorization: Open the ETH wallet, slide the function bar to the left and click 'Revoke' to open the Revoke DApp page. You can see the authorization status by scrolling down.

Steps to revoke authorization: If you want to revoke authorization, click the menu bar in the upper right corner after entering the Revoke DApp page. Select 'Connect Wallet' and click 'WalletConnect' - 'imToken' to connect your wallet. After connecting your wallet successfully, scroll down to find the authorization record you wish to cancel in the list, click the 🖊️ button to edit the 'Approved Amount,' and then click 'Update' to sign and complete the process.
3. Upgraded Address Book Management Feature
imToken has significantly upgraded the address book management feature in the latest version. Firstly, we have added a new one-click function to the address book. Secondly, imToken will automatically display your wallet addresses in the quick selection address list, facilitating fast transfers. At the same time, we have enhanced the search function for active users with multiple addresses, enabling them to locate the required addresses in the address book quickly.

4. Fiat-Based Miner Fees Display & Introduction of “Economy” Gear
imToken 2.12.2 introduces the function of setting miner fees in fiat currencies. You can use various national currency units supported in the imToken wallet to quickly and intuitively assess and set miner fees, avoiding the complexity of understanding and calculating fees in GWEI. Meanwhile, we have retained the GWEI unit so that users can set miner fees according to their preferences.
In addition, imToken has added an "Economy" gear option to help users achieve the best balance between transaction confirmation time and cost. In the "Economy" gear, you can choose between "slight savings" and "moderate savings" options when setting the miner fee. At the same time, there is a manual input option. As such, you can customize the fee according to your needs and preferences.
△select the ‘economy’ gear
Steps to select the ‘economy’ gear: On the transfer page, click the estimated miner fee range to access 'Miner Fee Settings.' In 'Gear Selection,' click the 'Economy' gear and select the miner fee gear you want to use.
△manually input miner fees
Steps to manually input miner fees: In the 'Economy' gear, click 'Input,' edit the miner fee you want to pay, then click 'Confirm.'

The imToken 2.12.2 version has enhanced support for testnets, providing users with a more convenient way to acquire test coins. We have set the "Testnet" in the "Network Switch" page to open by default and added a new "Faucet" entrance in the testnet function bar, through which users can directly receive test coins.
△claim test tokens
Steps to claim test tokens: Enter the ETH wallet homepage and click 'Ethereum.' Select the 'Testnet' option and choose any network from the test network list to enter. Slide the function bar of that network to the left to access the 'Faucet' entrance.
