Tap the “Generate my 12 words” button and the app will assign you a 12 word password. You must write down all 12 words, in the order they were presented to you, and store them in a safe place. You could lose access to all of your HNT cyrpto should you lose these 12 words.
DO NOT SHARE THESE 12 WORDS WITH ANYONE, EVER, UNLESS YOU ARE INTENDING TO GIVE THEM ALL OF YOUR HELIUM CRYPTO CURRENCY. These 12 words are your secret recovery phrase and you will only need to use them when you upgrade your phone and reinstall the Helium app. Store these 12 words in a safe place. Do not store them digitally on your computer, in case your computer is ever compromised. Should anyone ever ask you for these words, it’s because they are trying to steal your crypto. Please alert us should anyone ever ask you for your words. If you’ve lost your 12 words, but still have the app installed, you can retrieve your 12 words through the Settings page (gear icon).
After you’ve written down your 12 words, it will prompt you to select each of your words, from a random list of words. Repeat this process for each of the 12 words.
