0Wallet Mobile Application
- Download and install the secure blockchain wallet mobile app from the App Store for iOS or for Android from the Google Play Store.
- Open the app, continue through the prompt screens and select “Create Wallet” which will generate a unique wallet address and mnemonic phrase.
— It is critical saving your mnemonic phrase in a safe place. We suggest that you write this phrase down on paper and store it in a secure location as this is the key that can be used to regain access to your wallet. - After recording your mnemonic phrase, click “continue” in the top right. The next screen will prompt you to enter specific words from your mnemonic phrase to ensure accuracy. After selecting the correct words, click “Confirm.” If you have safely recorded your phrase, you can confirm that you want the phrase to be deleted. After this point, you will no longer be able to access your phrase.
- The following screen will ask if you want to set up 2DA for your secure blockchain wallet. If you are ready to do so, make sure you have downloaded and can run the 0Wallet Authenticator application on your computer.
— If you do not want to set up this feature now, you can set up the 2DA later by going into settings and clicking on “Secure your 0Wallet.” - When connecting your wallet to the 0Wallet Authenticator, you will be prompted with instructions. When you are ready and have completed all the aforementioned steps, you can scan the 0Auth QR code to connect your 0Wallet. Note: you must be on the same network to do so.
