Change validator
Easily change your validator anytime without having to unstake your tokens on SubWallet.
Step 1: Open the SubWallet extension and choose the "Earning" tab at the bottom of the screen. In the Your earning positions screen, select the subnet you want to view.
Step 2: Click the 
icon in the Account info field to view the validator you've staked on for a subnet.
If you are in "All accounts" mode, click the 
icon instead.
Step 3: In the Your validators screen, select "Change validators".
Step 4: In the Change validator screen, select the validator you want to move your stake by clicking the "Change to" field and then choose a validator. Once done, select "Apply 1 validator".
With subnet staking, you can only change from one validator to another at a time.
You can use the Sort function to find the most suitable validator that fits your needs. Click the 
icon in the top right corner and choose your sorting criteria.
Step 5: Once you've chosen your validator, hit "Update validator" to proceed.
Move a part of your stake (alpha tokens) to another validator
With subnet staking, when you want to change validator, you can opt to move a part of your staked alpha tokens to another validator while keeping the other on the initial validator. This can be done by enabling the toggle next to the "Change staking amount" field.
Once this field is enabled, you can type the amount you want to move to your newly selected validator, then hit "Update validator" to proceed.
Step 6: Check the information and confirm your request by clicking "Approve".
Step 7: Your request has been submitted!
You can either click "Back to home" to return to the homepage or "View transaction" to see transaction details in the History tab.
