The Importance of the Seed Phrase for Wallet Security and Actions to Take If Lost

The seed phrase is a unique access key to your wallet, allowing you to regain access if you forget your password or change your phone number. This sequence of words is generated automatically and cannot be altered. To ensure the security of your wallet, it is crucial to store the seed phrase in a safe place and not to share it with anyone.

Precautionary Measures:

  • Storage: It is recommended to write down the seed phrase on paper and keep it in a secure location, inaccessible to others.

  • Confidentiality: Do not share the seed phrase with third parties and avoid storing it in a digital format that could be compromised.


Actions to Take If You Lose Your Seed Phrase:

If you lose your seed phrase and have no other means of accessing your wallet, regaining access becomes impossible. This underscores the importance of proper storage of this information. In case of losing your password or phone number without the seed phrase, restoring access to the wallet is also not possible.

How to transfer Seed Phrase from another device:

  1. Open Tonhub

  2. Go to "Settings"

  3. Open "Security"

  4. Tap "Backup keys"

Please, make sure that seed phrase is written down. Do not just copy-paste it from one phone to another, always keep a secure backup.
