How to Back Up Your Wallet to iCloud or Google Drive?

  1. You can enable encrypted cloud backup in the Zerion mobile app through two methods:

    1. During Wallet Creation: After setting up your wallet, you'll be prompted to back up your recovery phrase both in the cloud and manually.

    2. From Wallet Settings: Navigate to App Settings > Manage Wallets > Select Your Wallet group > Enable iCloud or Google Drive Backup.

  2. Set a strong, unique password that will be used to decrypt your cloud backup when restoring your wallet. Do not reuse your iCloud or Google Drive password. This password should be used exclusively for wallet recovery.

Once confirmed, your encrypted backup will be stored safely in the cloud.

🔥 Your Encryption Password Cannot Be Recovered by Zerion

The password you create is essential for restoring your wallet from your cloud backup. Zerion does not store or have access to this password, if it's lost, it cannot be recovered or reset. Be sure to remember it or store it securely
