Our phone is not safe as in a sense that someone hacked our phone? I think the risk of getting hacked is bigger on PC than on an android or iOS operating devices, isn't it?
You have 12 secret words and with this words you can recovery wallet. Also you cant login in wallet on other devices without this words. So wallet looks safer.
My points exactly, which is why I asked him if he means by "the phones by definition are not safe" is referring to the possibility of the phone being hacked. Because in case of stolen or lost, wallets are completely safe and can be recovered.
