Freighter

Freighter is a non-custodial wallet extension that enables you to sign Stellar transactions via your browser.
What is Freighter?
Freighter is a Chrome extension that serves as a non-custodial wallet for Stellar transactions. It offers a safe environment where users can store, manage and control their keys directly in their browsers, eliminating the risk associated with copying and pasting private keys. However, it's important to note that the extension does not store backup phrases or keys – losing them equates to permanent loss of account access.
