# Change Validator in Wallet

When staking TAO on root or subnets, you may want to switch to a different validator. Talisman allows you to update your validator selection directly from the wallet.

Follow the steps below to make the change.

1. From the wallet, choose the relevant Bittensor account.

3. If you’ve staked TAO on root or on a subnet, you’ll see the corresponding position in your wallet (for example, SN0 for root or an alpha token like SN45 for a subnet). Click the three-dot menu to access “Change Validator” settings.
