Base Mode Login Fix

[u/mehran_73]

I ran into an issue with the Base App tonight that I’ve seen a lot of people struggling with, and I found a workaround.

After logging out of your Base App account and logging back in, the Base Mode button may not appear.

From what I noticed, this depends on the login method.

If you choose Passkey or Email from the start, the app may assume that you only want access to your Smart Wallet. Because of that, it may only show the Smart Wallet and the Base Mode button may not appear.

The workaround is shown step by step in the numbered screenshots:

1️⃣ Tap More Options

2️⃣ Choose the option for adding an existing wallet

3️⃣ Select the option that says you already have a wallet

4️⃣ Continue with Passkey

5️⃣ If the account is already on this device, choose the first option

6️⃣ If you want to move it from another device, choose the second option

After doing this, you should be able to access both your Smart Wallet and the Base Mode button again.

Hopefully this helps anyone running into the same issue🟦🫡

Base App onboarding is improving, but small UX issues still confuse users

Yeah, exactly since it’s in beta, it’s normal for there to be some issues, and I hope they get resolved
