How to export my ELLI wallet recovery phrase or private key?

ELLI is a “user custodial wallet”. This means that no one controls your accounts except for you (or anyone else who gets ahold of your Recovery Phrase or private keys). Since we do not hold your private keys on a server that we maintain, or for that matter, at all, we are unable to recover them for you. If you are logged into your ELLI wallet on any device you can export your recovery phrase or the private key from there.

Recovery Phrase:

Access your wallet

  • Click on the Settings icon (⚙️)

  • Choose Security and Privacy.

  • Select Export Recovery Phrase

  • Click on Show and your Recovery Phrase will show in the middle text box.

Private key:

Access your wallet

  • Click on the account switcher icon (PFP)

  • Hover over the desired account with your mouse and click on the Settings icon (⚙️)

  • Then select the option Export Private Key.

  • Click on Show and your private key will show in the middle text box.

Note:
Although a Recovery Phrase can access multiple wallets, it is done so by accessing the private keys of these wallets. So when you export a private key, it is only for the current account that you are logged into.
⚠️ Do NOT store this in the cloud or on your device (doc, jpg, screenshot). Write it down on a piece of paper and store it in a safe place! ⚠️

How to check your transaction activity within the Elli wallet?

Your transaction activity keeps records of all transactions you have performed with your wallet. In simple terms, it’s like checking your app history to see all past actions.

This data gives you insight into what you have been doing, which enables you to gain awareness of your preferences and wallet usage.

STEP 1

Access your Portfolio screen.

At the bottom of the screen you will notice several icons for different features (from left to right):

  • Portfolio

  • NFT Gallery

  • Activity

  • Settings

STEP 2

Click on the fourth icon from the left side to go to your Activity screen.

That’s it! Now you can see your activity log showing you the history of your ELLI transactions.

We want to point out that the image above is used as an example and shows a newly created wallet with initial activity only. Once you start using your ELLI Wallet, all of your transactions will be shown in your Activity log.

From your Activity log, you can easily check your transaction in the blockchain explorer by selecting the desired transaction from the list and on the next screen clicking on View in explorer

If you lost your password, U can do ?

  • If you forgot your password, you can reset it by clicking “Forgot Password?”

    Then will be asked to type CLEAR DATA, capitalized.

    ⚠️ You will need your Recovery Phrase to continue since starting this process will log you out of that device and you will need to log in again. ⚠️

    After you input your Recovery Phrase, you will be asked to set up another password.

    Keep in mind that these passwords are different for every browser you have the extension set up, and are stored at a local level, meaning it won’t necessarily be the same password on your other devices.

    In this way, ELLI never has access to your password.

    💡Your Recovery Phrase is the only way you will be able to log in after you log out of your account. Since ELLI is a self-custodial product, we don’t keep any of your data, and your Recovery Phrase isn’t tied to your e-mail address, nor do we keep your e-mail address on any of our servers.

    If you lost your recovery phrase/private key, what can you do?

    ELLI is a “user custodial wallet”. This means that no one controls your accounts except for you (or anyone else who gets ahold of your Recovery Phrase or private keys). Since we do not hold your private keys on a server that we maintain, or for that matter, at all, we are unable to recover them for you. The last resort is that you are hopefully still logged into that wallet on any device and you could export your recovery phrase or the private key from there.
