Didnt store 12 word phrase for coinbase wallet

[Hippocrypto]

[...] but ETFbitcoin said the OP could still get back the wallet seeds he didn't save or write down through his phone storage. How is that possible when he doesn't remember or write down any word in the wallet seeds.

Because, if you read the whole thread, he is talking about file recovery.
The seed was stored in the mobile before it got deleted. A recovery does have a very slim chance of recovering that piece of information.

But since we are talking about mobiles (which means: flash memory), the whole tasks instantly got way more complicated than when dealing with HDD's. The chances are extremely slim.

That's really crucial when it comes to mobile devices, per experience with previous mistakes on failure of having no back-up on my wallet tends to become my worst nightmare. If we store our files on hdd or flash memory we can't rely only on that, cloud storage can also be a good alternative if you agree on my opinion.

No that's a terrible idea. Why in your right mind would you store your seed phrase in cloud storage where someone could hack your account and grab the file?

You're supposed to write it down on paper so you don't have to rely on technology working for you to have access to your seed phrase.

You can never rely on a third party to safely store your sensitive information for you, no matter what the company tells you. For instance my Yahoo account with its ridiculously strong password was easily hacked because their system had absolutely no security! They basically let the hacker in. Imagine if I had stored anything important in there...

Perhaps, it made me realize I will soon remove my seed phrases stored in my one drive account and I felt not safe there already. Sooner I will be printing out my wallet phrases on hard copy and make a compilation out of it. Solid state drive also a good back-up in parallel with paper prints.

It would be better if you'd regard this mnemonic code as compromised.
The best would be to create a new seed and move all of your funds to your new wallet.

You can never know how many backups of your data have been created. You definitely shouldn't use this seed anymore.

Unless you are using a permanently airgapped computer connected to a dumb printer, then this is not a safe method either. Simply using your usual every day computer and printer to do this will still expose your seed phrase to the internet, to any malware on your computer or printer, will save the file on your hard drive and in your printer memory, and so on. There is a good reason that all good wallets tell you to write your seed phrase down by hand, not print it out.

Solid state drive also a good back-up in parallel with paper prints.

All electronic storage has a lifespan, and SSDs are no different. This is especially true if you are using the SSD on a daily basis, and if you are, then it is likely in an internet enabled device and so again not safe.

You are overcomplicating things. Just generate a new seed phrase and write it down with pen and paper.
