How to reset your Zucoins Wallet

Resetting your Zucoins Wallet deletes the wallet currently on your device and replaces it with a new, empty wallet. Zucoins' wallet interface treats this as a significant action, and warns you clearly before it happens.

Only reset your wallet if you understand the consequences, and only after you've backed up any wallet you want to keep access to.

Before You Begin

  • A current backup of your existing wallet, if you want to keep access to its Zucoins or history

  • Confirmation that you understand a reset cannot be undone without that backup

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Back up your current wallet first, if it holds any Zucoins or history you want to keep.
    Why: Zucoins' wallet interface warns: "This will delete your current wallet's data and create a new wallet. Make sure you've backed-up your current wallet to recover your data."

  2. Open the "Reset wallet" option in your wallet settings.
    Why: This is the function that deletes the current wallet and creates a fresh one.

  3. Confirm the reset when prompted.
    Why: This step finalises the deletion of your current wallet data.

Important Notes

  • Resetting is different from restoring: resetting creates a brand-new, empty wallet, while restoring brings back a previous wallet's data from a backup file.

  • If you are trying to fix an issue with your wallet rather than create a new one, use the official Zucoins wallet recovery or reinstall instructions instead.
