A detailed step-by-step guide for managing Cardano ADA can be found at How it works – Ada Portal.
The new WalletConnect feature also requires the latest version of the SecuX Mobile App (App version 1.8.0) After you update your wallet on SecuXess web application, disconnect from the USB cable and enable Bluetooth function on the wallet as well as your mobile phone or tablet, login to your SecuX Mobile App and proceed to App update.
