Connection Issues with Trust Wallet (WalletConnect) in React + Vite App using RainbowKit

[unaldutlu]

Hi RainbowKit team,

First of all, thank you for your great work on this library!
I am using RainbowKit in my React (Vite) project to allow users to connect their wallets. Everything works perfectly with MetaMask—there are no connection issues or unexpected disconnects.

However, when users connect via Trust Wallet (using WalletConnect), the connection often drops or disconnects unexpectedly. This happens especially after a page refresh, after some idle time, or sometimes randomly during navigation, while MetaMask remains consistently connected.

Here are some details about my setup:

Frontend: React + Vite

Wallet Integration: RainbowKit + wagmi

Wallets tested: MetaMask (browser extension), Trust Wallet (mobile, via WalletConnect)

RainbowKit/wagmi versions: [Add your versions here]

What I’ve tried:

Ensured both RainbowKit and Trust Wallet are up to date

Tested on different networks and browsers

Tried different WalletConnect configurations (v2, QR modal, etc.)

Questions:

Is this a known issue or limitation with WalletConnect v2 or Trust Wallet specifically?

Are there recommended configurations, workarounds, or best practices to keep the connection stable with Trust Wallet?

Is there a way to auto-reconnect or notify the user gracefully when the connection is lost?

Is there a session management approach you would suggest for mobile wallet users?

Any advice or examples would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your help!

Best regards,
