Warning

Install THORWallet only from the App Store, Google Play or the links on thorwallet.org. Do not install it from a link in a message, an ad or an email.

  • Start from the download page. It opens the official store listing.
  • THORWallet asks for a recovery phrase in two places only: when you confirm the backup of a new wallet, and when you choose Import Wallet yourself. A website, a message or a person that asks for it is a scam.
  • Support will never ask for your recovery phrase.

If something goes wrong

The app shows "Update Required"

Tap Update Now and install the new version from your app store. Your wallet stays on the device.

You are moving to a new phone

Before you erase the old phone, make sure every wallet is backed up. A seed wallet needs its recovery phrase, and a vault needs its backup files. Then install the app on the new phone and import the wallet. See Restore a wallet from a recovery phrase.

You cannot find the app in your store

Open the download page on the phone and use the store button there. If the store still does not offer the app, contact support at info@thorwallet.org.
