You may experience trouble with your passkey when activating your ScopeX wallet, or approving your transfer. The good news is, there are quick and easy solutions for the issue!

Common issues

  • 'No passkey found' error, which happens because of a deleted passkey, device reset or other reasons

  • Prompt to use a different/USB device, which happens because the passkey was set up on a different device


How to Fix This Issue

Solution: You can resolve this by creating a new passkey on your current device.

Steps to recover your wallet and create a new passkey:

Step 1: Open the app and tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the top-left of the Home screen.
