Q: Imported wallet addresses don’t match my old ones. What should I do?
Double-check your mnemonic phrase is correct.
One mnemonic = one HD wallet. Inside, you can create multiple accounts (Account 1, 2, 3). By default, only Account 1 is restored. Try adding more accounts.
Each account has its own private key. Export accordingly.
Imported address type defaults to Native SegWit. Switch to the address type you need (e.g., Taproot).
If you previously set a Custom HD Path or Passphrase, you must input the same one during recovery. If forgotten, recovery won’t be possible.
Still not working? On Step 3, click Scan in More Addresses to attempt recovery.
Q: What If I Forgot My Wallet Password?
UniSat does not store or transmit your wallet password. If you've forgotten it: You can restore the wallet using your seed phrase. During the restoration, you can set a new password.
If you don’t have the seed phrase, unfortunately, there is no way to reset or recover the password.
