# useSwitchAccount

Hook to switch the active wallet to another account linked to the signed-in user. See [multi-wallet linking](/embedded-wallets/features/multi-wallet-linking/) for an overview.

info

Account switching requires the user to be connected with the AUTH connector (social or passwordless login).

### Import

```tsx
import { useSwitchAccount } from '@web3auth/modal/account-linking/react'

```

### Usage

```tsx
import { useWeb3AuthUser } from '@web3auth/modal/react'
import { useSwitchAccount } from '@web3auth/modal/account-linking/react'

function WalletSwitcher() {
  const { userInfo } = useWeb3AuthUser()
  const { switchAccount, loading, error } = useSwitchAccount()

  return (
    <div>
      <ul>
        {userInfo?.linkedAccounts?.map(account => (
          <li key={account.id}>
            {account.eoaAddress}
            {account.active ? (
              ' (active)'
            ) : (
              <button onClick={() => switchAccount(account)} disabled={loading}>
                Switch
              </button>
            )}
          </li>
        ))}
      </ul>
      {error && <div>{error.message}</div>}
    </div>
  )
