How to log out of Trust Wallet? (Privacy Settings)

Accessing Account Management

1. Open the Trust Wallet application on your mobile device.

2. Tap the profile icon located in the top-right corner of the main interface.

3. Scroll down to locate the “Settings” option and select it.

4. Within Settings, find and tap “Security & Privacy” to enter advanced account controls.

5. Confirm your biometric or password authentication when prompted to proceed.

Navigating Logout Options

1. Inside “Security & Privacy”, locate the section labeled “Account”.

2. Tap “Log Out” — this option appears as a red text button beneath the active wallet address.

3. A confirmation modal will appear asking if you want to sign out of the current session.

4. Select “Log Out” again to confirm; the app will clear all active session tokens.

5. You will be redirected to the welcome screen with no wallets visible until re-authentication.

Understanding Session Termination

1. Logging out does not delete your wallet or private keys — they remain stored locally on the device.

2. All transaction history, token balances, and connected DApps are preserved after logout.

3. Session data such as recent QR scans, clipboard contents, and browser cache are wiped upon sign-out.

4. The Ethereum address associated with your wallet remains unchanged and fully recoverable via seed phrase.

5. No blockchain activity is triggered during logout — it is purely a client-side state reset.

Managing Biometric Authentication

1. In “Security & Privacy”, toggle “Biometric Login” off to disable fingerprint or face ID access.

2. Disabling biometrics forces manual password entry every time the app launches.

3. Even with biometrics enabled, logging out still requires biometric verification before proceeding.

4. Trust Wallet never transmits biometric data to external servers — all validation occurs on-device.

5. Changing device lock settings (e.g., disabling phone PIN) may impact biometric fallback behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does logging out remove my recovery phrase from the device?No. The 12-word seed phrase remains securely stored in the device’s encrypted keychain unless manually deleted via “Delete Wallet”.

Q: Can I log out remotely if my phone is lost or stolen?No. Trust Wallet has no remote wipe or logout functionality since private keys never leave the device.

Q: Will connected decentralized applications lose access after logging out?Yes. All active DApp connections are severed upon logout; reconnection requires explicit approval after signing back in.

Q: Is there a way to auto-log out after inactivity?No. Trust Wallet does not support automatic session timeout — manual logout is the only method to terminate access.
