How to safely delete MyTonWallet?

If you want to delete MyTonWallet app, it's important to do so correctly. Simply deleting the app does not guarantee complete data removal.

Why Is This Important?

After you delete MyTonWallet, encrypted data may remain on your device. If the device falls into the wrong hands, and you've used a weak password, your funds could be at risk.

  • Open the Settings tab

  • Scroll down to find logout options

  • Tap the Exit button

  • If you have multiple wallets:

    • Check the option to Remove all wallets

    • Verify all wallets are logged out

    • Confirm data removal

3

Clear App Data

  • Clear app cache

  • Remove stored preferences

    • Ensure complete data removal

Reinstallation Guidelines

If you plan to reinstall later:

  • Keep seed phrases secure

  • Store recovery information

  • Document wallet addresses

  • Save important settings

Important: Following these steps will ensure your assets and data are protected from unauthorized access.

Always keep your seed phrases secure, even after deleting the app. You'll need them to recover your wallets if you reinstall later.

Never delete the app without properly logging out first. This could leave your wallet data vulnerable to unauthorized access.
