Restore a wallet via iCloud

Last updated 28 days ago

Recovering a wallet from iCloud backup allows you to restore access to a wallet you previously used with Family. This can be especially helpful in situations where you need to download Family to a new phone, or re-download the app. Once the backup is restored, your wallet becomes accessible from Family again, complete with all its associated data.
