<p>You cannot. A mnemonic seed phrase, xpub, and xprv does not explicitly contain information about which wallet software was used to create that wallet.

**When I know xpub and xprv and mnemonic**

*When I get mnemonic (12 words) and get xpub I can get balance with blockchain API*

You cannot. A mnemonic seed phrase, xpub, and xprv does not explicitly contain information about which wallet software was used to create that wallet. Generally this is not any issue to the user though, as this information alone should be enough\*\* to recover the wallet, using any software which follows similar standards.
