Device locks and updates
Device locks and updates is an essential part of understanding Device Security. Treat every wallet request as a decision with consequences. Check the source, understand the requested permission, and confirm that the action is actually necessary. A site, support account or promotion that asks for a seed phrase, private key or verification code should be treated as a serious warning sign. imtoken does not ask users to enter seed phrases, private keys or recovery phrases into content pages. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed by a wallet provider, so confirmation should always follow the user’s own review.
