If you are looking for your Secret Recovery Phrase (SRP), then you are at the right place. Here, in this article, we will learn how to find SRP on MetaMask. But, before that let’s get an idea about it.

Secret Recovery Phrase can be termed as a master key that is generated at the time of setting up an account. It is a 12-word phrase by which your funds are connected.

Remember, this is different from your password.

Secret Recovery Phrase (SRP) plays a vital role. Because, in case you ever lost your password, SRP will help you in recovering your wallet and funds. It is recommended to note it down somewhere safe, and use it if and when you want to access your account on any other device.

Bottom Line

Metamask sign in is an essential step before you perform any activity through this wallet extension. It is essential to ensure that no one other than the account holder is using the wallet. However, with the above steps, you’ll be able to find your SRP on both the mobile app and the extension. It is advised not to share your SRP with anyone and keep it safe somewhere because Metamask support or any of the members of Metamask never ask for it.
