FAQs
Why do I need to sync my blockchain app?
Syncing ensures your app has the latest blockchain data, providing an accurate view of your balance, transaction history, and any other relevant information. Without syncing, your app's information may be outdated and unreliable.
How long does syncing usually take?
Sync times vary greatly depending on factors like your internet connection speed, the size of the blockchain, and your app's settings. It can range from a few minutes to several hours. A slow connection or a large blockchain will significantly increase syncing time.
What should I do if my app is stuck syncing?
First, check your internet connection. If it's stable, try restarting your app and device. If the problem persists, check your app's support documentation or contact their customer service for assistance. Avoid closing the app abruptly during syncing, as this can corrupt data.
