# Add networks in Polkadot Vault

{% hint style="success" %}
Polkadot Vault supports 3 networks by default: **Polkadot, Kusama, and Westend.**&#x20;
{% endhint %}

To add more networks, you can scan a **trusted** spec QR code and a 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.

{% hint style="info" %}
This should be done on a device that is **not** your Polkadot Vault device (PC recommended).
{% endhint %}

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

{% hint style="info" %}
To make it easier, type the network you want to update in the **Search** bar.

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

{% endhint %}

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