Getting private key from mobile to import to desktop
Token Pocket lets you use both a desktop and mobile wallet. This section will cover how to get your private key from your mobile wallet to import into your desktop wallet.
Please be extremely careful with how you handle your private keys. Giving your private keys to someone will give them full access to your coins!

Tap the Me tab on the bottom ribbon and tap Manage Wallets.
On the next page, tap the BNB Smart Chain entry. Be careful not to tap the address part, or you’ll only copy that to clipboard instead.
When the menu appears, find and tap the Export Private Key option. Type in your password to get your private key.
