The time it takes to recover your Bitkey wallet depends on the recovery method you use:
- Cloud Recovery – Usually completes within a few seconds
- Delay + Notify Recovery – Takes 7 days to complete, after approval and device setup
Each method is designed to balance speed with security. You’ll be guided through the correct process based on your situation — such as a lost phone, lost hardware, or both.
