user33: Yoroi wants 15 words from me, but I only wrote down 12. I know it was a Shelley wallet, and can see all details about my Cardano.
Can I restore my account without seed phrase?

user4023: This table represents which length of seed phrases was used in wallets during the Byron-era (legacy) and which one in the today's Shelley-era wallets. By the way the cardano-wallet is a command-line tool allowing you to use a first-factor seed phrase 15-24 word, and an optional second-factor seed phrase 9-12 word.

user28: Yoroi uses 15 words for its seed phrase. You did probably used Daedalus to generate it. I recommend you to try to use Daedalus to restore it.
