Receiving, storing, and signing transactions (sending funds). The private key will never leave the hardware wallet.I won't use any other apps, just the official one called "Envoy" made by Foundation. I'll download it on my iPhone. You can use different apps like Sparrow or BlueWallet, but I want to check out all the features using the official app for now. To get the Envoy app, you can scan the QR code printed in a paper you can find in the Passport box or click on the link on the Foundation Official website (foundationdevices.com). It's important to do this to avoid the risk of downloading the wrong or, even worse, a fake app, like with anything else online.Foundation Passport Setup Step 1Turn on the Passport by long pressing the button on the right side of the device. You can also open the Envoy app on your phone/tablet, as we'll use it a bit later.Foundation Passport Setup Step 2The Passport will show a Welcome message. You can press the button on the top right in the keypad to go forward to the next step.Foundation Passport Setup Step 3You'll be prompted to choose between configuring the Passport with the Envoy App or opting for Manual Setup. The first option sets up the hardware wallet to work with the official software wallet, so select "Envoy App" and confirm it by clicking on the top right button in the keypad. If you prefer using third-party apps, you can choose manual setup. In this guide, I'll use the Envoy app for simplicity, but for more advanced users, I suggest considering the separation of Signer (the hardware wallet) and Wallet (the app), similar to the distinction between Church and State.Foundation Passport Setup Step 4Tap on "Continue on Envoy." Now, open the Envoy app on your phone.Foundation Passport
