# Getting Started

> How to use the FlowState app at app.flowstate.exchange

The FlowState user manual covers every action you can take in the app at [app.flowstate.exchange](https://app.flowstate.exchange). For the protocol mechanics behind these actions, see [C1 Pools Explained](/concepts/c1-pools-explained) and [The Fee Model](/concepts/the-fee-model).

## What you can do in the app

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Connect your wallet" href="/user-manual/connecting-your-wallet">
    Sign in with MetaMask, Rabby, Phantom, Twitter or any WalletConnect-compatible wallet.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Sell into a C1 Pool" href="/user-manual/depositing-into-a-c1-pool">
    Deposit tokens at oracle price with zero price impact. Single-sided, no pairing required.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Manage your positions" href="/user-manual/checking-your-position">
    Track fill progress and cancel any position before it fully fills.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Claim proceeds" href="/user-manual/claiming-proceeds">
    Collect ETH from your filled positions on each supported chain.
  </Card>

## Before you start

You need three things:

1. A supported wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, Phantom or WalletConnect-compatible). Twitter login is also supported via Privy.
2. The token you want to sell, on a [supported chain](/integration/integration-overview).
3. A small amount of the chain's native token (ETH, BNB and so on) for gas.

The app itself does not custody anything. Every action you take is a direct smart contract call signed by your wallet.

## The main navigation

Three sections in the top navigation:

| Section     | What it does                                                    |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Tokens**  | Search for a token and sell into its C1 Pool                    |
| **Rewards** | Coming soon                                                     |
| **History** | Your token sales, fill progress, cancellation and claimable ETH |

The app switches your wallet to the correct network automatically when you open a token page. No manual chain switching needed.

## The seller side only

FlowState is a deposit-only app. Buyers fill your position automatically through DEX aggregators (KyberSwap, OKX DEX, Odos and others) routing into the C1 Pool at oracle price. There is no buy or swap UI inside the app. If you want to buy a token sitting in a C1 Pool, route through any aggregator that has integrated C1 liquidity and the trade settles against the pool automatically.

## What the app does not do

The app is a frontend to the FlowState smart contracts. It does not:

* Custody your tokens at any point
* Charge a separate platform fee beyond the protocol's 1% seller fee
* Require a FlowState account, email or password
* Share your data with anyone

If the app is unreachable for any reason, every action remains available through direct contract calls on the relevant block explorer. See [Technical Architecture](/overview/technical-architecture) for contract addresses and the ABI.
