Description

When creating a new Brave Wallet, it gives me a seed phrase to note and then asks me to confirm it by selecting words from a list in the order they appeared in the seed phrase. The problem is the list of words is unordered, so when I try to find the next word in my seed phrase I have to painstakingly search the word list one word at a time. The list should be sorted in alphabetical order so it is easy to find the next word via a mental binary search (the way humans naturally try to search sorted lists).

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Settings > Crypto Wallets > New Wallet
  2. Write down seed.
  3. Try to confirm.

Actual result:

Pain and suffering that make me want to not use the feature.

Expected result:

Delight at using modern financial technology.

Reproduces how often:

100%.
