Features

1. Encrypted Sync

Your mobile and desktop stay perfectly in sync:

  • Selective sync — Choose what syncs between devices
  • Conflict resolution — Smart handling of simultaneous edits

We never see your keys. Sync uses client-side encryption—your data is encrypted before it ever leaves your device.

  • Keyboard shortcuts — Power user navigation
  • Drag and drop — Reorder accounts, manage assets

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my seed phrase stored on desktop?
Your seed phrase is encrypted and stored in your operating system's secure storage (macOS Keychain or Windows Credential Manager). It's never stored in plain text. For maximum security, you can use watch-only mode with a hardware wallet—your seed phrase never touches the desktop at all.
Do I need to install both mobile and desktop?
No—you can use either independently. Desktop works as a standalone wallet. However, the sync feature between mobile and desktop provides the best experience: quick transactions on mobile, detailed management on desktop.
Is Keyra Desktop free?
Yes! Keyra Desktop is completely free, just like our mobile app. We don't charge for the wallet. Our goal is to be your secure home for all crypto activities.
