Importing a Mnemonic with SeedSafe

Overview

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for importing an existing BIP-39 mnemonic seed phrase into your UnoLock vault using SeedSafe. SeedSafe provides military-grade protection for your recovery phrases through split-storage cryptography and zero-knowledge protocols, ensuring mathematical impossibility of seed phrase reconstruction without authenticated access to both encrypted halves.

2. Click the Import button in the wallet area.

Select Backup Seed Option

1. Click the Backup Seed option.
2. Choose the number of words your mnemonic contains from the available options.

Enter the First Half of the Mnemonic

1. Enter the first half of your mnemonic seed phrase in the field provided.
2. Click Submit.
3. Review the confirmation that shows your mnemonic and the number of words you selected appearing in the wallet area.

Enter the Second Half of the Mnemonic

1. Click View on the newly imported mnemonic entry.
2. When prompted, enter the second half of your seed phrase.

Verify the Imported Mnemonic
