Thanks for the replies. That’s great and certainly put my mind at ease!
I’ll wait for a while as suggested but I do have my seed words.

I didn’t realise I can use any wallet as long as I have my seed words. In that case would you recommend any particular wallet preferably to use on my iPhone X and iPad.

Hi
I’m new to this forum and Bitcoin so I apologise in advance if these are stupid questions but I really need some help please to get hold of my Bitcoin.
Briefly
1. I purchased some Bitcoin on LocalBitCoins.com. This was no problem and received then very quickly.
2. I downloaded Mycelium wallet app onto my IPhone X and then sent the Bitcoin from LocalBitCoins.com to my wallet.
3. The transaction went fine and when I searched on TradeBlock.com I could clearly see the transaction.
PROBLEM.
4. I waited for the Bitcoin to arrive into my wallet but nothing happened! Every time I refresh the wallet I get the same message -
Can’t synchronise the account. Try again later.

I really have no idea how to resolve this. It has been impossible to get a response from Mycelium so any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Yours frustratedly!
