If you've purchased a new D'CENT Biometric Wallet while using the App Wallet (software wallet),
you can either transfer your assets or restore your wallet using one of the two methods below.
[Option 1: Send Assets from the App Wallet to the Biometric Wallet]
- Complete the initial setup of your Biometric Wallet
-
From your App Wallet, send your assets to the Biometric Wallet address
→ Once the transaction is complete, your assets will appear in the Biometric Wallet
[Option 2: Restore the App Wallet Using Recovery Words]
You can also restore your App Wallet directly on the Biometric Wallet using the 24 recovery words.
-
Back up your recovery words (mnemonic phrase) from the App Wallet first
How to Back Up Your App Wallet - On the Biometric Wallet, choose [Recover Wallet] during initial setup
- Enter your 24 recovery words from the App Wallet accurately
- Connect the Biometric Wallet to your smartphone via Bluetooth
- In the D'CENT app, go to [Settings] > [Switch Wallet Mode], and select "Biometric"
-
Add your previously used coin accounts
(Please refer to the User Guide for important notes when adding accounts)
[Recommended for Enhanced Security]
Once your wallet has been successfully restored and your assets are visible:
- We recommend deleting and reinstalling the D'CENT app to remove the old App Wallet address
- This is especially important if both the App Wallet and Biometric Wallet share the same recovery words, as compromising the App Wallet could also put your Biometric Wallet at risk.
- If you did not back up your recovery words, you may permanently lose access to your assets.
