Master password

A master password provides an additional level of security for your passwords. The app will request it when you try to open the password vault or enter a saved password in a login form.

Instead of a huge number of passwords from websites, you will only have to remember one master password. Passwords from websites will also be more secure. Access to the vault is locked by the master password, which cannot be stolen, because it's not stored on devices.

Create a master password

1. On the home screen, tap  (profile picture) → App settings.

2. Under My info, tap  → Create master password.
3. Enter the master password. We recommend using passwords that are complex but easy to remember.
4. Tap Create. To confirm, enter the password again.

Delete a master password

1. On the home screen, tap  (profile picture) → App settings.

2. Under My info, tap  → Delete master password.
3. Enter your current master password and tap Continue.

Time to lock the password vault

You can change the time after which the browser blocks access to the password vault and requests a master password during an attempt to access it:

1. On the home screen, tap  (profile picture) → App settings.

2. Under My info, tap  → Confirm access when filling in saved passwords.
3. In the Frequency section, select the option you need: After restart, After lock screen, or Never.
4. If necessary, enter your master password to access the storage.

Disable the password manager

1. On the home screen, tap  (profile picture) → App settings.

2. Under My info, tap and disable the Save passwords option.

Now the app stops saving passwords and inserting them into authorization forms. Previously entered passwords are encrypted and stored on your device. They become available again if you re-enable the password manager.

To do this, go to the settings and enable the option.
