- Select the allowance to revoke and click Revoke.
A Metamask pop-up will appear in your browser.
- Make sure the Ethereum (ETH) app is open on your Ledger device and click Confirm.
Your Ledger device will display Review transaction.
- Using the buttons, review the revoked transaction. If you're revoking access to a token, the displayed Amount should be 0. If all looks good, select Accept and send and press both buttons simultaneously to sign the transaction.
