After entering the **address** and the **amount**, tap on "**Gas Fee**" to select or customize gas fee. In most cases, the higher the gas fee, the faster the speed of transactions being confirmed on Ethereum blockchain.

{% hint style="info" %}
Reminder: If the gas fee is set too low, it might take a very long time for the transaction to be confirmed. When the transaction is not confirmed yet, you can't create a new transaction sending to a different address. If you don't want to keep waiting, you can create a new transaction sending to the same address to replace the former transaction.
{% endhint %}

You can tap on "**Custom**" to set "**Gas Price**" and "**Gas Limit**", "Gas Price" is the unit price and "Gas Limit" is the maximum amount allowed to be consumed. The product of these two is the maximum gas fee.

You can also tap on the **on-off button** on the right of **EIP-1559** to set "**Gas Limit**", "**Max Priority Fee**" and "**Max Fee**".  The product of "Gas Limit" and "Max Fee" is the maximum gas fee.&#x20;
