Note that you can also recover your account with the secondary email, secondary cloud service, and the trusted selfie you chose to add.
*The email is cap sensitive, and it must be used in the original way it was written when you created the account
What to do if someone had physical access to my phone?
Your phone is protected by your device security protection (Face ID, Touch ID, or security pattern). This also protects access to your Zengo account and any critical actions ( like sending crypto transactions)
If you fear your phone was physically accessed and that your phone security was bypassed without your consent, you should immediately update your device security PIN (in the device settings). For additional peace of mind, you can transfer your crypto funds to a new account.
