This guide walks you through the process of setting up Thorwallet for the first time.
When you launch Thorwallet for the first time, you'll be prompted with options to either create or import a wallet.
👉 Tap “Create Wallet” to generate a brand new, secure wallet.
If you already have an existing wallet (seed phrase or multisig vault with vault shares) , select the "Import Wallet" and follow the flow shown in the app.
In this step, you'll be prompted to create a 6-digit passcode. This passcode is essential for protecting your wallet — it will be required every time you:
Open the app
Approve transactions
You'll now be presented with different wallet setup options.
👉 Choose the first option "Seed Phrase Wallet"
Here, we're selecting the standard seed phrase wallet to set up a regular wallet.
👉 To set up a multisig wallet, choose the second option and refer to the Vaults page for setup instructions.
On this screen, you can choose to enable biometric authentication for added convenience.
If enabled, you’ll be able to use your device’s biometrics (e.g. Face ID or fingerprint) or your passcode to:
Unlock the app
Approve transactions
After the wallet is created, you'll see a prompt to secure your account.
👉 Tap the message shown to view and back up your seed phrase.
🔒 Important: Write it down and store it securely offline. Do not share it — this is your only way to recover your wallet.
That’s it! You’ve successfully set up your THORWallet.
