Is my recovery phrase the only backup?
Yes — the recovery phrase (seed) is the master key for your wallet. Keep it offline and secure; anyone with the seed can restore your funds.
Can I recover on a different device?
You can restore your wallet on another compatible Trezor or other BIP39-compatible wallet using your recovery words.
