Exodus wallet guidance
Exodus recovery depends on the recovery phrase for the self-custody wallet. Device passwords, app locks, screenshots, and support messages do not replace the phrase for safe restore.
Common wallet topics include Exodus recovery phrase help, seed phrase concern, restore preparation, exposed phrase, missing wallet access, device change, or fake support request.
Never share your recovery phrase, private keys, password, or screen access.

OpenExodus Desktop And Mobile App Help
Exodus troubleshooting is safest when you separate desktop app state, mobile app state, selected wallet, sync state, balance display, restore context, and recovery phrase concerns before reinstalling or restoring.
Exodus Troubleshooting Checks
Use these checks to separate ordinary setup friction from wallet safety risk before you reset, restore, reinstall, or open wallet support portals.
Official app source
Install only from verified official wallet pages or app stores. Fake wallet apps and cloned browser extensions can steal seed phrases during setup.
Network and token view
Missing balances often come from the wrong network, hidden token, different wallet address, pending bridge, or transaction not confirmed on-chain yet.
Restore vs password
A local app password is not the same as the recovery phrase. Restoring on a new device usually depends on the phrase, not customer service.
Phishing approvals
Be careful with wallet-connect prompts, token approvals, signature requests, airdrop claims, and pages asking you to validate or synchronize a wallet.
Device hygiene
Update the browser or phone, remove suspicious extensions, review connected sites, and avoid troubleshooting from a compromised computer.
Support boundaries
Official wallet guidance should not need seed words, private keys, remote access, or one-time codes. Keep screenshots free of private wallet data.
Likely Causes
Start with the most common causes before resetting the wallet, restoring from a recovery phrase, or trusting a support message.
Recovery And Troubleshooting Steps
Step 1
Keep recovery words offline
Do not type recovery words into websites, chats, email, cloud notes, screenshots, issue reports, or remote access sessions.
Step 2
Check phrase source before restore
Confirm the backup belongs to the intended Exodus wallet and that words are complete, readable, and in the original order.
Step 3
Use official app restore only
Restore only inside the official Exodus desktop or mobile app on a trusted device, then compare public addresses before sending funds.
Step 4
Treat exposed phrases as urgent
If the phrase was entered into a suspicious page or shared with support, assume the wallet may be compromised and follow official safety guidance before depositing more funds.
Exodus And Device-Specific Help
Desktop backup handling
Avoid screenshots, cloud sync folders, shared computers, and remote access tools when checking or restoring a desktop wallet backup.
Mobile backup handling
Avoid clipboard tools, screenshots, messaging apps, cloud notes, and keyboard suggestions that can expose recovery words.
Issue reporting
Report only non-private symptoms, such as the restore step, device type, and error text. Never include actual recovery words.
Exodus Official Support Checklist
For official Exodus help, downloads, updates, or contact options, use Exodus's official portal and verified official channels. This page helps you prepare safe, non-private context before opening support portals.
Exodus Recovery Phrase Safety
No legitimate Exodus help should need your recovery phrase.
A recovery phrase controls wallet restoration. Treat it as private self-custody information and review how phrases work before using any wallet.

FAQ

Self-custody wallet recovery generally depends on the recovery phrase. If every trusted device and the phrase are gone, recovery may not be possible.
