Once you complete the account creation process, you'll see a request to backup your account, which is how it appeared before. However, the process diverges after this.

By the way, if you have questions about the creation process, it is all explained in greater detail in our Account Creation Guide for Anchor Android.

To proceed, press “Backup account”

Step 2

Backup with Recovery Phrase

Here you can see the pass phrase. Once you have it written down, double check that you have each word spelled correctly.

Once you are ready, press "I have written it down" to continue

On this page, you'll be required to recall three of the 12 words. Find the corresponding word from your recorded list and select it. 

Once you have done so, select “Verify” to advance.

At this point, your backup is now complete and you are good to go. With this phrase, you can use the Account Recovery process to recover the original account it was created with, as well as any accounts you created after that. 

Again, please keep this phrase safe and do not lose it. Without it, you will be unable to recover your account.

To return to the Accounts page, press “Done”

This is just to show what subsequent account creation will show. You'll notice the "Backup" section at the bottom of the Confirm screen. It will show the public key of the account that the backup was created with, so you can reference it and know which backup phrase to use.
