**Description: Delete/Remove Account from Wallet**

**Purpose: I have too many accounts on my wallet, one is imported from my father and brother we started in the beginning with, and one is created on accident, while importing the first account.. So I have 2 accounts I don‘t really need, and want to remove, so I can work on my 2 networks I use.**

**Extension/Mobile/Both: Both**

Hi, you can remove imported accounts but you can’t delete accounts created/ added using the “ **Create a new account”** function. You could hide the accounts that you can’t delete so they don’t apear in the accounts list but in a separate list under the accounts list.

To add to this hiding is an insufficient action for deletion of accounts that require reserve amounts. XRP, XLM, HBAR for example. It would be nice to be able to close those out completely. Exodus is doing that. I also have dust amounts of SOL and ETH I would like to send but I am unable to.
