You have a point and it will be a good idea to educate ourselves about how to improve wallet security because what I know you may not know and what you know I may not be aware of it.

You guys have spoken well about what we need to do to improve our wallet security because security for our cryptocurrency wallet is essential because it protects our assets.

Meanwhile, I believe opt for a wallet with a good track record and good user ratings.
To protect private keys, make sure the wallet is backed by a reputable vendor or business that utilizes sophisticated encryption techniques.

This will give your wallet an additional layer of security. To access our wallet, will need to enter a special code that was sent to your phone, such as Google Authenticator.

Consistently use a password that is strong and distinguishes between upper and lower case letters. Avoid using obvious passwords like names, dates of birth, and frequently used passwords.

You must keep your private keys secure because they are the only way to access your cryptocurrency. Make use of a hardware wallet to store your private keys offline.

Making sure the most recent patches and bug fixes are installed on our wallet software. The wallet's security can be strengthened through updates, which can also shield you from potential weaknesses.

Use cold storage to protect our cryptocurrency from online threats and risks by putting it in a "cold wallet" that is offline and unconnected from the internet.

Think about using various wallets for various cryptocurrencies. The effect of a security breach on your entire cryptocurrency portfolio can be lessened as a result.

Phones should be people’s private property and should not be shared, i don’t know why people will give so many people access to their device, even if you are going to share your device it should be with people who are very trusted, and if you have crypto held in your device and you want to fix the device, you should be there while it is being fixed.

We have experience in recovering cryptocurrency from broken Trezor and Ledger Nanodevices. Devices often become physically damaged making it difficult to recover.

Recently no wise person would leave their device for the person fixing it let alone someone with their cryptocurrency private information in such device, Most phone engineers might be doing a double work of hacking such device

If your trezor or ledger is broken, you should destroy it and buy another one, then you will use your seed phrase to get your money back into your new device, but if your money is stolen from your trezor or ledger because you did not keep the seed phrase well, there is no way to get it back.

For a broken ledger I would advice you go one step further and sweep all your coins to a new address after buying a new one. Destroying the broken one is great but I would always feel that it could be compromised through that device and would be safer with a new hardware and private keys.

Re: Beware of crypto recovery services!

Obtain a new Trezor, Ledger, or Coldcard. If your device is broken, you will most likely need to purchase a replacement. It's generally best to purchase new devices.

Creating a secured environment requires an ideal of obtaining a few technical knowledgeable practices mainly in the Engeering aspects or the scientific computation aspects

For those that can't afford to purchase a brand new wallet, they can use a spare device which they have laying around which can also give the same amount of security. All you have to do is make it is never connected to the internet.

As answered above, uWallet is a very good choice and provides high level of security for your coins. I do not see the need for other alternatives at this time when there is already an existing service doing the job very well.
