Managing Wallets

Creating, importing, securing, and managing wallets in Jupiter Mobile.

Jupiter Mobile is a self-custodial wallet that supports multiple wallet types: recovery phrase wallets, Quick Accounts (social login), watch-only wallets, and hardware wallets (Ledger).

Creating a Wallet

When you install Jupiter Mobile for the first time, the onboarding flow guides you through wallet creation. You can choose between:

• Recovery phrase wallet — a standard Solana wallet secured by a recovery phrase.
• Quick Account — a social login wallet (see Quick Accounts below).

To create an additional wallet after setup:

1. Open wallet drawer

   Tap the wallet icon in the top left to open the wallet drawer.

2. Switch view

   Select “Switch” in the top right.

3. Add account

   Select “Add Account”, then choose between:

   • New recovery phrase — creates a new wallet with a fresh recovery phrase.
   • Existing recovery phrase — derives a new wallet from a recovery phrase already stored in the app.

Jupiter Mobile is self-custodial and does not have access to your recovery phrase. If you lose it, Jupiter cannot recover your wallet. Write it down and store it in a secure, physical location.

Importing an Existing Wallet

If you already have a Solana wallet and want to use it in Jupiter Mobile:

1. Open wallet drawer

   Tap the wallet icon in the top left to open the wallet drawer.

2. Switch view

   Select “Switch” in the top right.

3. Import

   Select “Add Account” and enter your recovery phrase. Make sure to enter it exactly as provided, with no changes to spacing or capitalization.

4. Select wallets

   Choose which wallets to import from the phrase.

If you’re installing Jupiter Mobile for the first time, you can import during onboarding by choosing the “import existing wallet” option.

Quick Accounts

Quick Accounts are wallets created through social login (Gmail, Apple, Google, Twitter, or Discord), powered by Privy. They don’t require managing a recovery phrase during setup, which makes them more accessible for new users.

To create a Quick Account:

1. Open wallet drawer

   Tap the wallet icon in the top left to open the wallet drawer.

2. Switch view

   Select “Switch” in the top right.

3. Social login

   Select “Add Account” → “Social Login”, then choose your preferred provider and follow the prompts.

A recovery phrase is generated when you create a Quick Account. If you lose access to your social login (e.g. Gmail account deleted, Apple ID locked), the recovery phrase is the only way to recover your wallet. You can export it at any time from Manage Account → Show Recovery Phrase. It is strongly recommended to back it up.

Backing Up Your Recovery Phrase

Jupiter Mobile does not support cloud-based backups. You must write down your recovery phrase and store it in a secure location, ideally offline.

This is the only way to recover a recovery phrase wallet if you lose access to your device.

Authentication (PIN / Biometrics)

To enable or manage biometric authentication:

1. Open settings

   Open the wallet drawer → Settings.

2. Security

   Go to Security and Privacy → Biometric Authentication to configure your preferences.

Switching Between Wallets

There are three ways to switch wallets:

• Open the wallet drawer → select Switch → choose your wallet.
• Swipe up or down on the wallet icon to cycle through connected wallets.
• Long-press the wallet icon to open the full wallet list.

Watch-Only Wallets

Watch wallets let you view a wallet’s portfolio balance, DeFi positions, and transaction history without being able to execute transactions.

1. Open wallet drawer

   Tap the wallet icon in the top left to open the wallet drawer.

2. Switch view

   Select “Switch” in the top right.

3. Add watch account

   Select “Add Account” → “Watch Account”. Enter a name and the wallet address you want to monitor.

Hardware Wallets (Ledger)

Setup

Jupiter Mobile supports Bluetooth only Ledger devices. USB-based Ledger devices are not compatible due to Ledger SDK limitations.

1. Pair via Bluetooth

   Make sure your Ledger is already paired with your phone in your system Bluetooth settings.

2. Connect in Jupiter Mobile

   Open the wallet drawer → “Switch” → “Add Account” → “Ledger”. Select your device and continue.

Only one Ledger device can be connected at a time.

Troubleshooting

If you’re having trouble signing transactions with Ledger:

• Make sure Blind Signing is enabled on your Ledger.
• Try removing the Ledger pairing from your phone’s Bluetooth settings and reconnecting.
• If the issue persists, open a ticket at support.jup.ag.

Solana Seeker Setup (Seed Vault)

If you’re using Jupiter Mobile on a Solana Seeker device, you can import an existing recovery phrase into the Seeker’s Seed Vault and connect it to Jupiter Mobile.

1. Import into Seed Vault

1. Open Seed Vault

   On your Seeker device, go to Settings → Seed Vault.

2. Add recovery phrase

   Tap “Add a new seed phrase” → “Import from a wallet”.

3. Enter recovery phrase

   A secure screen will appear (screenshots are disabled on this screen). Enter your 12 or 24-word recovery phrase.

4. Set passcode and nickname

   Create a passcode for this recovery phrase and set a nickname to identify it.

2. Connect to Jupiter Mobile

1. Open Jupiter Mobile

   Launch the app on your Seeker device.

2. Import wallet

   Open the wallet drawer → “Switch” → “Add Account” → “Import Account”. Enter your recovery phrase and follow the prompts.

3. Authorize

   Follow the on-screen instructions to authorize the imported recovery phrase from your Seed Vault.

Once authorized, your wallet will appear in your account list and you can manage its assets from Jupiter Mobile.

Never share your recovery phrase with anyone. Always store a backup in a secure, offline location.

Removing a Wallet

1. Open wallet drawer

   Open the wallet drawer from the top left.

2. Remove

   Select Manage Account → Remove Account and confirm.

The wallet is removed from Jupiter Mobile. This does not delete the wallet on-chain. If you have the recovery phrase, you can re-import it at any time.

Exporting Your Recovery Phrase or Private Key

1. Open wallet drawer

   Open the wallet drawer from the top left.

2. Manage account

   Select Manage Account.

3. Export

   Choose Show Recovery Phrase or Show Private Key. Copy it and store it securely.

Anyone with your recovery phrase or private key has full control over your wallet. Never share it and never store it in a place others can access.

Customizing a Wallet

1. Open wallet drawer

   Open the wallet drawer from the top left.

2. Customize

   Go to Manage Account → Customize Account. You can rename your wallet and choose an emoji and background color to identify it.

Managing Connected Apps

To view and manage dApps connected to your wallet:

1. Open settings

   Open the wallet drawer → Settings.

2. Connected apps

   Select Connected Apps to see all dApps your wallet is connected to. You can disconnect individual dApps or select Disconnect from all to revoke all connections.
