maybe you feel pity to your friend, but i think it's fully your friend fault. this happen commonly to people who didn't secure their wallet security properly.
sometimes they didn't wrote the recovery seed, sometimes they didn't enable authenticator, etc. this is about our money and it's very valuable. so please, don't be careless.

Sorry for the loss of your friend, 640$  is a big amount. And unfortunately, we hear such events a lot. Especially newbies are not pay much attention to wallet keys. And in the end, the investments they have made quite difficult can turn into garbage due to a mistake.

I have used a lot of wallets and still using a lot of multi-wallet like trust wallet, MEW, Coinomi, etc. I always back up my recovery phrase or key in a folder and keep it in my google drive so that it can be recover anytime. It takes only couple of minutes so if you are lazy then this can happen and you lost your money. If he does not have time to back up his phrase then he should use any hardware wallet.

Yes, he did a horrible mistake. This is normal for many newbies, many friends of mine did this when they were a newbie. But 640$, it's huge money comparing the recent condition of the market. Everyone should care about the phrase code/private keys. Many people do copy the address first not the private key, which is a mistake. I prefer Mewconnect where you can save the phrase code later!

i thing it's already uninstaled, so all datas will be removed from memory.

thats the real problem if he remove all data from that application that stored in that wallet is gone now. The only way to recover that balance is if someone new the phrase or private key of that wallet.
Since the owner dont know the wallet phrase  impossible to recover that wallet again.
I feel bad for him its not small amount to easily forget.

In my opinion, what a person is experiencing is that he is too careless and careless. it hurts when we lose assets due to the mistakes we make. therefore be an experience so that in the future the same thing will not happen again.

Make sure next time tell to him to secure all the details of the wallet because $640 is not small  amount of money and it is very big money  to me and that amount of money is not easy to earn you hardwrok and good capital to earn like that money .

Many wallet lost their key just like other before who forgot their key because the bitcoin before was very low value and once they saw the value is very high they got nothing because they did not believe to the bitcoin. I don't know how to recover the wallet like that but I hope he can recover.

Yesterday someone I knew uninstalled his wallet from his android phone mistakenly and he told me to help him recover his wallet but guess what? he did not write out the wallet recovery phrase, the wallet consist of 640$ worth of bitcoin, he was broken, felt pity for him, how can someone not take recovery seed serious? that's what came out of my mouth, Really I felt pity for him because he went through a lot to gather that bitcoin, people need to start taking wallet keys or phrases very serious, newbies should please understand that without these keys you lose your money, time and energy
If its an android app its ok as long as you didn't uninstall the application you use or never reformat your phone it will not gone as long its continue running. But for real security of your asset you need to save all important things because its your money involve.
i thing it's already uninstaled, so all datas will be removed from memory.

I think this not a new story in crypto world because we can see many stories like this every day. So people should understand the importance of keys and recovery seeds, it will take few minutes to take backup and keep it in safely if anything unfortunate happens we can recover our funds. So people should learn lessons from this kind of mistakes.

maybe it happened that your friend deleted the wallet with the reason that only tokens or coins that have no price and after a while there is a price, that's what people usually do not think there is a price but valuable. if it's like that can not be recovered better give advice  in order to save the correct phrase so that the same thing does not happen
