If enabled, this function protects your wallet by requesting your password, fingerprint, or facial ID each time you try to:

  1. Initiate or sign a transaction

  2. Export the wallet

  3. Access the backup phrase

How to enable spending authentication

Spending authentication must be activated for each wallet separately. To turn on this feature, tap on the 3 dots at the top of the wallet information screen then tap the Request spending authentication toggle.
