If a wallet is not working, there could be a problem with the API used by the wallet. Changing the API to another could be a solution; below, you will find detailed step-by-step guides on how to do this.

## Some of the trusted APIs you can choose from are here:

<https://eos.greymass.com>

<https://eos.eosusa.io>

<https://api.eossupport.io>

<https://api.main.alohaeos.com>

<https://eos.api.eosnation.io>

<https://eos.eosphere.io>

An overview of some more existing APIs (Application Program Interfaces) can be found [here](https://validate.eosnation.io/eos/reports/endpoints.html) or [here](https://eos.antelope.tools/nodes).
