Omniwallet gives you the ability to generate new addresses/private keys as you need them.
However from time to time you may have an address not created in Omniwallet you need to add to your Omniwallet.
Follow the steps below to add it to your wallet.

Note: If your private key starts with a 6, please follow these instructions first to import an encrypted private key

  1. Go to https://www.omniwallet.org and click 'Create a New Wallet' (or log into a wallet you have already created).
  2. Once you have logged into your wallet go to the 'My Address' page and click the 'Add Address' button and select 'Import Address with Private Key'.
  3. Enter the private key you exported from your other wallet/source and in a few moments that address should be added to your wallet and displayed in the list below giving you access to your BTC and any Omni Protocol Properties on that address.

If after importing your private key the addresses imported does not match what you expect please reference this article : https://github.com/OmniLayer/omniwallet/wiki/Help,-After-importing-my-private-key-and-the-address-I-get-is-different-than-what-I-expected!
