Add a signer in LOBSTR app (enable multisig for my Stellar account)

Modified on Wed, 17 Jan 2024 at 02:26 PM

This section will guide you through the multisig setup process where you are using a single device with both LOBSTR wallet and LOBSTR Vault apps installed.

Watch our video or follow the detailed steps below.

Before you start:

  • Install LOBSTR wallet app on your iOS or Android device and login into your account;

  • Make sure you have a Stellar account linked to your LOBSTR account;

  • Your Stellar account should have a sufficient balance to enable a multisig solution - each additional signer increases the base reserve by 0.5 XLM;

  • Install LOBSTR Vault app on your iOS or Android device.


Follow the steps below to enable the multisig protection for your Stellar account in LOBSTR wallet using a new signer account from LOBSTR Vault app: 

1. In LOBSTR Vault, select the 'Create Account' option.

3. On the 'Recovery Phrase' screen, write down the presented Recovery Phrase and tap the 'Next' button.

We do not store your Recovery Phrase on our servers, nor do we have any access to it.

It is securely stored in the local storage of your phone until you log out from your LOBSTR Vault account or remove the app.

If you ever lose your phone, remove LOBSTR Vault app accidentally, or can't access your account for any reason, you can restore the account using the 12-word Recovery Phrase.

A loss of your Recovery Phrase will result in losing control of your main account, as you will not be able to sign outgoing transactions due to the lack of required signatures.

4. Verify your Recovery Phrase by tapping the words in the correct order and the 'Next' button.

5. Create your custom 6-digit PIN and confirm it.
