# Add networks in Polkadot Vault

Polkadot Vault supports 3 networks by default: **Polkadot, Kusama, and Westend.**&#x20;

To add more networks, you can scan a **trusted** spec QR code and metadata QR fountain. Below are the detailed instructions:

**Step 1**: Navigate to the [Novasama Metadata Portal](https://metadata.novasama.io/#/polkadot). The interface should be like the image below.

This should be done on a device that is **not** your Polkadot Vault device (PC recommended).

**Step 2**: Choose the network you want to add in the **Network** tab on the sidebar.&#x20;

To make it easier, type the network you want to update in the **Search** bar.

*In this case, we want to add the Avail network.*

{% endhint %}

You will see a QR code, which will be used to add the corresponding network to your account.

**Step 4**: Scan the QR code in Step 2 to add the network. Once you've completed, review the verifier certificate and select **"Approve**".

**Step 5**: After approving the addition of the new network, you'll be prompted to create a new key (account) for that network. It will be added to the main tab under the selected key set.
