Your keypair is generated in your browser. We never see it. Nothing is sent to any server.

Set Up Your First Client

While your keypair is on screen, get a Nostr client running so you can import your keys right away.

🔏 On Android? Download Amber first, then Primal.
Amber is a key manager — it holds your nsec and signs events without sharing it with other apps. Your key stays in Amber. Primal (and any other app) asks Amber to sign. You never paste your nsec again.

Then import your nsec into Amber, and connect Primal to Amber.
📱 Download Primal now and import your nsec.
Primal works on iOS and Android. It's the fastest way to go from zero to posting.
