# ETH Wallet Ethereum wallets are applications that let you interact with your Ethereum account. Think of it like an internet banking app – without the bank. Your wallet lets you read your balance, send transactions and connect to applications.Your wallet is only a tool for managing your Ethereum account. That means you can swap wallet providers at any time. Many wallets also let you manage several Ethereum accounts from one application.That's because wallets don't have custody of your funds, you do. They're just a tool for managing what's really yours. ### Wallets, accounts, and addresses It's worth understanding the differences between some key terms. * An Ethereum account is an entity that can send transactions and has a balance. * An Ethereum account has an Ethereum address, like an inbox has an email address. You can use this to send funds to an account. * A wallet is a product that lets you manage your Ethereum account. It allows you to view your account balance, send transactions, and more. Most wallet products will let you generate an Ethereum account. So you don't need one before you download a wallet. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
