As far as I used Trustwallet I found it safe for storing crypto. But still we know that hardware wallet is best for storing coins I will recommend to store your crypto in hardware wallet. Trustwallet will be safe if you not connect with third party sites and did not store Private key in any online place .
I recommend to use mobile for storing crypto and don't enter Laptop it pc for crypto because most of hacking done through PC malware software.

@op specially asked about online wallet in android as like Trustwallet and metamask. Hardware is absolutely safe but i don’t considering it for small amount of crypto because you have to spend good amount of money to buy it, even it’s not for the all countries as i know.

Wallet hardware is necessary for those who have lots of crypto coins,
because if not I don't think you need to buy it especially the price can be said to be expensive,
regarding Trustwallet there is no doubt about it and in my usage it is safe.

Trustwallet is safe, just like any good non-custodial wallet. I'm using OWNR, their security is the same, I'm just using a virtual card I order there.

To be honest, I am literally in love with trust wallet, I have literally 8 wallet addresses just on trust wallet, you just have to be careful to who you give permission too, including the dapp you link with.

Never import a strangers a wallet into yours for any reason whatsoever.

Asides from the ledger cold wallet I don't think any wallet beats trust this includes metamask.

The safety on trust wallet depends on keeping your mobile device & your recovery phrase safe. Trust wallet is considered one of the most secure hot wallet in the world. Creating an account is easily and security processes are satisfactory. And Trust wallet provided everything, so we can conclude It is safe.

I kinda prefer trustwallet to metamask because it's easy to navigate and about the security, as long as you don't connect your wallet to untrusted site, then you have nothing to worry about. To be 100% safe, just get an hardware wallet

Hardware wallet is safe for our valuable assets but it is not available in every country because of some restrictions. We have to wait online based wallet and trust wallet is popular one. Personally I use both metamask and trust wallet. Both are safe to use and safety depend on the the purposes that how you use it, where you connect wallet etc.

Personally i recommend trust wallet to all the crypto users because i using trust wallet from more then 2 years and i never face any issue about hacking but most important you have to remember 12 keywords because if the mobile is lost or damage your assets will remain safe . Most of the peoples talking about hacking of trust wallet but its not true because they click on some unknown scamming links due to which they may connect to a scam site so thats the reason due to which they lose their assets.

in fact, this is the most common wallet for mobile phones has become very popular because of its token, which showed a good plus in price. And if you take the security parameters, this is certainly not the best variation.Cold storage will be much more reliable.

Actually he is talking about trust wallet so i told him clearly but if you are talking about cold wallets then cold wallets is the best and secure wallet in crypto ecosystem especially Ledger Nano X is the most secure wallet in crypto trading.

Can people hack my trustwallet

- it can be said yes , if you link your wallet to a site that is infected with malware , because every hacking happen to that private wallet due to an intruder from a fake site

Is it safe?
-so far I use truswallet very secure, with a note of the wallet I use, I have never linked it to another website just to store assets

Trustwallet hacked because access and connecting with fake dapp exchange site, usually trustwallet hacked because people greedy when checking new coin credit in their wallet and try to sell by giving access approval, but right now have smart ideas with scammer how to access to your trustwallet account.

I used trustwallet for long time and keep secure depend most selective when connecting with new dapp exchange, but right now not hold coins for long term in trustwallet and prefer hold at exchange market. I don't remember with how many connected site because every day I joined with new airdrop and testnet project.

Moreover, it is an online product, it can be hacked easily by any hackers if they want. Moreover, it's added by our carelessness in storing or disseminating information related to the wallet, clicking a link either intentionally or unintentionally, or other things that can make it easier for hackers to track and hack.
This is one of the risks of using online wallets, not only TrustWallet but also other online wallets.

But, as some people also said here, I also have no problems so far using that wallet application on my phone. As long as we are more careful, it may be quite secure. But, once more, this will not guarantee that the wallet will never be hacked. There is always a risk. Moreover, I ever read about the fake TrustWallet application on Google Play, there may be also other fake websites or applications. So, be careful again, ensure that you can download it directly from the official websites, and crosscheck once more before trying to install it.

Safety can be relative and dependent on personal efforts.

You made a valid point there and it's very consistent with my point of view too. It's not enough to get the best of whatever wallet there are while we can't make efforts to strongly secure them. As for those who mouth "hardware wallet" this, and t, how many of these users truly have it or have seen one before. That's by the way. Back to the issue, I use a Trust Wallet and I haven't had any issue(s) with it. I know experts say it's closed source and that it's a red flag.

Everything is hackable and there are too many factors on how it will be hacked. Trustwallet is just an app and for it to be safe will always play on the owner to be honest, let's say 80% of hacks on any wallets can be traced onto the owner's hand, may it because of carelessness or someone really wanted to exploit you but still your responsibility if you let them know especially if you don't know how to safeguard your wallets or your identity.

The main factor because carelessness is the cause of wallet hacking, if we save the mnemonic phrase on an external device and protect the PC from viruses, then it is possible that no one can hack the wallet from the trustwallet or metamask. I have been using metamask and trustwallet for several years and there is no hacking history even though I have kept assets in the wallet till now.

You can still be hacked if you connect your wallet on some shady/unfamiliar websites or a phished site so it's always important to check the url that you are visiting and it would be better if you can just bookmark the sites that you are frequently visiting so that you are sure that it was the real one.

Having a good antivirus on our pc or laptop is already enough because it can detect malware which can stole our keys if we save it on the same device but what you are doing of storing your keys outside can give you an extra layer of protection. You just want to make sure that you never connect that device online. This can act as a cold storage.

It all depends on the user as for me I have been using trustapp wallet for long and I have no issues with it or any hack on it but I will tell you if holding for short-term or long term I don't suggest you should used trustwallet rather look for Offline wallet and hardware wallet is more better.
I believe trust is just to store temporary after which you can moved to the final destination.

Using hardware is highly recommended for long-term asset holding because it is not a guarantee that we are safe using an online wallet even if we already protect our personal wallet, so I also recommend hardware wallets because we can store crypto assets at any time without worrying about hacking the wallet.

Hardware wallets are the most secure solution today compared to software wallets that we use but it is also not 100% secure. How safe will depend on how we use and care for it, if you own a hardware wallet and think it is absolutely safe and you neglect to take care of it, your wallet can also be hacked in one way or another.

In addition to using hardware wallets to store long-term investments, I also use software wallets for work but have never had a problem because for me security is the most important factor in this market.

In this case i say that Trustwallet is safe wallet but its all depend on your work if you use wallet carefully so its safe wallet if you connect your wallet for different website different project so some time you connect your wallet in fake website so that is a big issue for you and these hackers easily hack your account so be careful every wallet are safe if you use careful.

Not only in the trust wallet, mostly personal wallet hacked incidents happened by our carefulness, as like seed phrase isn’t stored in the secure place, and not for using anti virus in our pc. But especially i have seen in the trust wallet cases who got hacked either they're tried to sell fake airdrop tokens or connected their wallet in the scam platform.

its mostly happen due our careless saving our seed or private key. I've been for years using multiple mobile wallet and so far there is no problem with it. And also we must care with dusting token that could be hacking weakless point. Alot people didnt know about dusting coin and they transact it.

Me too and my ways is too always protect those password, phrases, files, mnemonics, etc.,always check or change your password regularly, put 2FA on every critical accounts and other stuff to make your wallets or accounts safe. It may not a full bulletproof but it may prevent future issues hacking your assets or accounts.
