❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Uphold® App
Is the Uphold® mobile app free to download and use?
Yes, the Uphold® mobile application is completely free to download from official app stores. While the app itself doesn't charge fees, standard Uphold® transaction fees and spreads still apply to trades and conversions made through the mobile platform.
Can I use all Uphold® Exchange features on the mobile app?
The Uphold® mobile app provides access to most features available on the web platform, including trading across asset classes, wallet management, and transaction history. Some advanced trading tools may have limited functionality on mobile compared to the desktop experience.
What should I do if the Uphold® app crashes frequently?
Frequent crashes may indicate compatibility issues or corrupted app data. Try updating to the latest version, clearing the app cache (via your device settings), or reinstalling the application. If problems persist, contact Uphold® support with details about your device and operating system version.
How secure is biometric authentication on the Uphold® app?
Biometric authentication on the Uphold® app is highly secure, as it uses your device's built-in security protocols. Your biometric data is stored securely on your device and never transmitted to Uphold's servers. This provides both convenience and enhanced security compared to traditional passwords.
Can I access my Uphold® wallet without an internet connection?
While you can view some cached information offline, an active internet connection is required for most functions including trading, viewing real-time balances, and executing transactions. The app needs to communicate with Uphold's servers to ensure data accuracy and security.
What happens if I lose my phone with the Uphold® app installed?
If you lose your phone, your Uphold® account remains protected by your password and (if enabled) two-factor authentication. You can remotely wipe the app data if your device supports this feature, or contact Uphold® support to secure your account. Using a strong password and 2FA ensures that even with physical access to your device, others cannot access your funds.
