# How do I recover my wallet if I lose access?

## Your key to securely accessing and recovering your RockWallet.

RockWallet cannot access or recreate your passkey. If your passkey was synced to your device or platform account, you may still be able to restore access by signing in to the same Apple ID, Google Account, or trusted device. 

[Apple Users instructions here](https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/use-passkeys-to-sign-in-to-websites-and-apps-iphf538ea8d0/ios)

[Android/Google Users instructions here](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6197437?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid)

If you are not able to access your wallet from a backup another a trusted device. Please reach out to support at [Support@rockwallet.com](mailto:Support@rockwallet.com)

**You may need to:**

- Verify your identity
- Confirm account ownership
- Complete extra security steps

**This protects you by:**

- Blocking unauthorized access
- Making sure only you can recover your wallet

The process is secure and intentional. It’s not meant to be rushed.

---

**What happens to your crypto during recovery?**

Your funds remain safe on the blockchain.

- Nothing moves during recovery
- RockWallet can’t access or transfer your funds
- Recovery gives you access again, but doesn't change ownership

You won’t lose your crypto if you lose your device.

---

**Scam check: What RockWallet will never ask**

To protect your wallet, remember this:

RockWallet will never ask you to:

- Share a private key
- Share a recovery phrase
- Send crypto to restore access

If someone does, it’s a scam.
