The foundation of your wallet's security is your 12-word secret recovery phrase. It's the key to restoring your wallet and its assets on another device, ensuring you're never left out in the cold even if mishaps occur with your device.

The backup process is simple yet vital. By jotting down your 12-word secret recovery phrase and setting a strong password, you guarantee access to your assets at all times. This isn't just a one-time affair; it's your safety net. Once you make a deposit, a reminder will notify you to start the backup process. We advise conducting this backup privately, ensuring no prying eyes can glimpse your details. Steer clear of public Wi-Fi during the process for an added layer of security.

Moving to a new device? No worries! Just reinstall the Magic Eden Wallet and use your 12-word secret recovery phrase to regain access. Remember, the phrase isn't stored on any central server; it's device-generated. This means a new device will have its own unique phrase. Always jot down your phrase to guarantee continual access, no matter the device.

While they might seem similar, your password and recovery phrase serve distinct purposes. Your password is a gatekeeper, preventing unauthorized access to your wallet on a single device. However, the recovery phrase is the master key, able to restore your wallet across any device. Always ensure your recovery phrase's sanctity; it's your direct access to your funds.

Constant updates? No need for constant backups. Magic Eden Wallet automatically backs up your information. As long as your 12-word secret recovery phrase is secure, you can access your assets whenever needed.
