How to recover additional Accounts after Restoring Wallet in K5

When you restore K5 Wallet using your 12-words SEED only Main Account in every blockchain is restored by default. Then, you have to manually restore any additionally created Account as follows:

Step 1: Tap on the (+) icon in the top right corner of your portfolio screen.

Step 2: Under Add Options tap on Add new account.

Step 3: Tap on Restore Account button.

Step 4: In the Restore screen you will be able to choose the blockchain upon which you want to restore additional Accounts. Choose how many Accounts on this blockchain you want to restore.

Step 5: Name your new Accounts if you want. You can also rename Accounts at a later stage in your Address Book.

Step 6: Tap on Create button and enter your 6-digit pin to successfully restore the additional accounts.

NOTES:

  • You can only restore Accounts that were created within K5 Wallet under the same SEED. Accounts that had been imported using Private Keys have to be imported again using Private Keys.
  • You can repeat the restore steps as many times as needed until you restore all your Accounts on all blockchains. For example, if you have 5 Accounts on the Tron blockchain and 3 Accounts on the Ethereum blockchain, you have to perform the steps above at least once for each blockchain.
  • You can restore multiple Accounts on the same blockchain one by one while providing an Account name at restore time or you can restore multiple Accounts at once by providing the number of the Accounts. In the latter case, the Accounts will be given default names, but you can then edit Account names from the Address Book.
  • You can give your Accounts any names you want. After restore Account names do not have to remain the same as before.
