3. Before the process begins a message appears confirming that you’re about to wipe the seed
words from the wallet. You can tap
Cancel
to stop the wipe and maintain your wallet.
4. If you want to move ahead with wiping the wallet, in the Safe Screen, tap
Approve
to confirm
and begin the wipe. When the wallet wipe has been completed, the wallet app closes. When

Passphrase protection
You can add an extra level off privacy to your wallet by adding a passphrase. If you activate a
passphrase for your wallet, you’ll be asked to enter the passphrase when you access your safe
Screen in addition to your password.
1. In the wallet app home screen tap the Settings icon. Then tap Passphrase Protection.
2. When prompted, slide open the Safe Screen. When prompted, enter your current password.
3. In the safe Screen, enter your desired passphrase.
•
The passphrase can be a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 50 characters.
•
You can have an unlimited number of passphrases. Each password and
passphrase combination relates to a different wallet.
•
If you forget the passphrase, there is no way to recover it. This means that you
will lose access to the wallet and all the crypto assets of that wallet.
•
Whenever you close the Safe Screen, it means you are no longer working in
Passphrase -protection mode.
Once you enter the passphrase, FINNEY syncs your wallet with the new information. Make sure you
follow the on-screen instructions and keep the Safe Screen open.
