You cannot add a seed phrase when a wallet has already been created. However, you can reset the wallet to factory settings and create a new one with a seed phrase. Before resetting the card to factory settings, move all the cryptocurrency stored in your Tangem wallet to another location for a while (e.g., another wallet or exchange). This is important because resetting a card will completely erase all funds stored in the wallet!
You must reset each card. Detailed instructions are in our blog: How to reset Tangem Wallet to factory settings.
To create a seed-phrase Tangem Wallet, follow these instructions:
1. Open the Tangem app.
2. Tap Scan and scan the card.
3. Select Other options.
4. Tap Generate seed phrase.
Your 12-word and 24-word seed phrase will be displayed. Select the number of words, write down the seed phrase in the order specified, and store it in a safe and secret place.
5. Click Continue.
Check whether you have written down your seed phrase by entering the words in the correct order.
6. Tap Create wallet and scan the card.
To fully understand the process of setting up a Tangem seed-phrase wallet, watch a video demonstration and refer to our step-by-step guide in our blog article.
Important: This applies to the second-generation Tangem Wallets or later.
