Binance App Device Management: Removing Old Phones and Unknown Sessions
A walkthrough of the Binance app's device management screen: spotting old or unknown devices, removing them, and pairing that review with app lock and withdrawal protection.

Every phone, tablet and browser you have ever used to log in to Binance can leave a trace in the device list. Over a few years that list fills up with handsets you sold, work laptops you returned and browsers you forgot. Each stale entry is a door you no longer watch. The Binance app makes it easy to review and remove them, and doing so takes less time than making a cup of tea.
Open the device list
In the Binance app tap the profile icon, choose Security, then look for Device Management or Manage Devices. You will see each device with a name, location estimate and the date of its last activity. Read the list slowly. Device names are often generic, such as a phone model or a browser and operating system pair, so match them against the hardware you actually own and the places you have logged in from. Anything you do not recognise, or anything you know is no longer in your possession, should go.
Remove devices and sessions
Tap a device you want to remove and choose delete. Binance will ask you to confirm with your verification methods. Removing a device signs it out and means it will need full verification to log in again. Do the same for any web sessions shown in the activity log that you cannot account for. If you find something unfamiliar that was active recently, change your password straight away from a device you trust.
Add an app lock on the phone you keep
In the app's security settings, enable the option that requires biometrics or a passcode every time Binance opens. This matters if your phone is ever picked up while unlocked. Pair it with a screen lock on the phone itself, and avoid sharing the phone's passcode with anyone who might open the exchange app. On Android and iOS you can also hide notification previews for Binance, so login codes and balance alerts are not readable from the lock screen.
Back it up with withdrawal controls
Device cleanup protects logins, but withdrawals deserve their own guard. Turn on the withdrawal whitelist in Address Management so funds can only go to saved addresses. Review that list during the same session. Put a reminder in your calendar to repeat the device review whenever you change phones and at least twice a year.
Risk boundary: Binance App Safety Guide
Digital assets are volatile and derivatives can amplify losses. This website has no login, wallet connection, deposit form or customer-support chat. A referral link only records attribution; it does not guarantee access, pricing, rewards, approval or investment results. Availability can differ by residence, legal entity and product, so no regional access is assumed from language or branding alone.
Scenario checkpoint
- Open Security and Device Management and read each entry with its last activity date.
- Delete every device you no longer own and confirm the removal with your verification.
- Turn on the app lock so Binance requires biometrics or a passcode each time it opens.
- Enable the withdrawal whitelist in Address Management during the same security review.
