Migrate your Trust Wallet account to Nova Wallet

Follow these steps to migrate your Trust Wallet account to your Nova Wallet using the passphrase.

  1. Open the Nova Wallet application.

  2. Select Already have a wallet.

  3. Select Trust Wallet.

  4. Input your passphrase.

When you create multiple accounts within Trust Wallet, they all share the same passphrase. When you import this passphrase into Nova Wallet, only the first account you created in Trust Wallet is imported. You should ensure that you send any DOT tokens to the primary account so that you can see them in Nova Wallet. This is due to a decision made by the Trust Wallet team and their use of custom derivation paths.
