Download this repository (git clone or Download link), open index.html file in your browser and follow instructions below. All the files required for this app to work are included and can be used 100% offline. We actually encourage you to do so in case you have some evil extension in your browser leaking your data.

Instructions:
- Generate a 'New Mnemonic'. Save it securely (Pen and Paper or offline password manager)
- Type your passphrase. This is very important given 2 facts: a. if a third party gets access to your mnemonic, and you did not use a passphrase when generating the seed, the third party will have direct access to your IOTA wallet funds; and b. you can create multiple wallets from a single mnemonic by using separate passphrase for each seed/wallet. This makes it easier to manage multiple wallets and for the purpose of plausible deniability (read From mnemonic to seed in the BIP39 spec)
- Convert to Seed
- Copy the Seed (do not write it or save it anywhere) and login into your IOTA wallet
- And you are Done! Next time you want to login to your IOTA wallet, come back to this tool (online or offline copy), paste the Mnemonic you saved in step 1, and follow the steps again.

Disclaimer: This tool is NOT an official tool by the IOTA foundation. The main library (authored by me) uses a combination of the official iotal.lib.js library and the bip39 library for generating seeds. Use this tool at your own risk of data and/or IOTA/any currency funds loss. We built this tool to facilitate the use of any IOTA cryptocurrency wallet in a more secure way, the way we use hardware wallets or any BIP39 implemented tool for generating secure and deterministic cryptographic keys. This tool does NOT transmit any data when creating or generating secure mnemonics or seeds, and does NOT store any data. We encourage you nevertheless disconnect from the network or download this tool directly from our Github repo and use it on an offline computer/device.
