If you’re facing the problem of a Trust Wallet lost recovery phrase, don’t lose hope just yet. There are still a few ways you might be able to regain access to your wallet. You can try accessing your wallet directly on your device, check if you’ve synced or backed up your wallet through any services, or even try to recall any missing parts of the phrase yourself. And if that feels overwhelming, you can always reach out to us at Crypto Recovers—we can assist with bruteforcing those missing pieces.
However, the hard truth is that if you’ve lost your Trust Wallet secret phrase completely and have no backup files, it becomes impossible to access your account again. We understand how stressful that can be, and we’re here to help you explore every possible option.
What is a Trust Wallet Secret Phrase?
The Trust Wallet Secret Phrase (also called a recovery phrase or seed phrase) is a unique set of words that gives you full access to your crypto wallet and funds. It is a sequence of 12 simple English words, all in lowercase.

If you are still logged into your account, you can manually reveal your Trust Wallet secret phrase. Go to Settings > Wallets > [Your Wallet Name] > Show Recovery Phrase (or you must enter your device password or biometric authentication).
All words in the secret phrase must be in the correct order, with no spelling errors or extra spaces.
Your Options When You Forgot Secret Phrase on Trust Wallet
You get the recovery phrase—aka the seed or secret phrase—the moment you set up your Trust Wallet. It’s a unique sequence of 12 words following the BIP39 standard. Because anyone with this phrase can restore your wallet on any device, it’s absolutely crucial to keep it safe and private.
Although Trust Wallet’s official stance is clear: if you lose your recovery phrase, they cannot recover it for you, Crypto Recovers can try recoverying partially available seed phrases on Trust Wallet. This is due to the decentralized nature of their service, which prioritizes security and user control over their assets. The recovery phrase is stored locally on the user’s device, and Trust Wallet does not have access to it.
If you’ve lost your Trust Wallet recovery phrase, don’t panic just yet, you still have some options with Crypto Recovers.
Check All Possible Backup Locations
If you’ve lost your Trust Wallet phrase, the first step is to carefully check all possible places where you might had saved it —notes, files, old backups, or even physical locations. Even if you think it’s gone, it’s worth a thorough search.
Finding the original Trust Wallet seed phrase is always the fastest and easiest way to regain access to your wallet. In many cases, people realize they only forgot a few words and are able to recover the rest by checking old emails, screenshots, or handwritten notes.
Checking the Seed On Your Device
If your Trust Wallet app is still installed and logged in on your phone or device, you can quickly create a new backup phrase by going into the wallet’s settings.
Luckily, Trust Wallet lets you view your recovery phrase as long as you have access to the wallet, it’s important to act fast and save it again before you lose access.
Remember, you need to have the app password in order to check your seed phrase on the device.
Check for Sync or Backup Services
Trust Wallet is a non-custodial wallet, which means it doesn’t sync your wallet or recovery phrase to any servers. So, unfortunatelyif you logged out from the account, there’s no way to retrieve your phrase from Trust Wallet itself. But don’t lose hope just yet! If you’ve ever used third-party backup options like Google Drive, encrypted backups, or a password manager, it’s worth checking those carefully. Look through your accounts and devices for any saved backup files or notes where you might have stored your recovery phrase.
How to Recover Trust Wallet Phrase
You can only recover your Trust Wallet seed phrase if you still have some parts or clues saved somewhere. If you’ve looked carefully for your backup files, checked all possible places, and still can’t find your recovery phrase—and you no longer have access to the wallet app—then unfortunately, recovery is not possible.
As we mentioned earlier, the Trust Wallet seed phrase consists of standard words selected from the BIP39 list (2048 words). If you’re missing no more than 4 words, it’s still possible to reconstruct the phrase using brute force methods. You can try to do it manually or contact us, Crypto Recovers for faster solutions.

When Your Trust Wallet Seed Phrase is Invalid/Incomplete
If you can’t remember the right seed phrase, check out the most common mistakes people make when entering it:
- First, the phrase must be exactly 12 words long. If you add even one extra word, the wallet will reject it as invalid.
- Another common error is mixing up the order of the words. Make sure to enter the phrase exactly as you received it—word by word, in the right sequence.
- The recovery phrase must contain only exact words from the BIP39 wordlist. Any spelling mistakes, extra spaces, missing letters, or wrong characters will cause an invalid phrase error.
Tip: When copying the seed phrase from a backup, be extra careful—extra spaces before, between, or after words can invalidate the phrase. Copying from apps or emails sometimes adds invisible characters that cause problems.
And finally, some BIP39 words look very similar (for example, “bear” vs. “beer”), so it’s important to double-check each word carefully. Even a small mistake can lead to an invalid seed error.
If you have double checked your seed phrase and still can not enter the wallet, contact Crypto Recovers. We specialize in recovering wallets with missing or slightly incorrect seed phrases using brute-force techniques—a method that tests all possible word combinations in the BIP39 wordlist until finding the correct ones.
How Crypto Recovers Can Help With Forgotten Seed
After you contact Crypto Recovers, we’ll carefully review your case to see if recovery is possible. This starts with a short conversation about how you lost your Trust Wallet recovery phrase and what details you still remember.
If we believe recovery is possible, we’ll ask you to sign a contract and provide any helpful information—such as partial words you recall or details from your Trust Wallet, like transaction history.
Our recovery methods include brute-forcing (trying all possible combinations of missing words) and dictionary attacks (testing word combinations based on what you might have used). These techniques can be very effective, especially if you remember some words.

When the Recovery Fails
If you’ve completely forgotten your Trust Wallet seed phrase, don’t have a backup file, and are logged out of your account—unfortunately, there’s no way to recover access. Not even Trust Wallet can help in that case. That’s why it’s so important to store your seed phrase safely from the start.
Another complication is if you’ve forgotten too many words from the phrase. In some cases, trying to recover it without enough clues could take years.
However, if you still remember most of the phrase or have any useful hints, there’s still hope. Reach out to Crypto Recovers to see if recovery is possible—we’ll do our best to help.
