How to activate a Duress mode?
To activate a Duress mode, simply unlock the app using your Duress password instead of your normal Master password.
Note: Push notifications will be turned off when the Duress mode is activated.
What vaults are visible in Duress mode?
- Vaults that you make visible in the Duress mode while setting up the Duress password.
Whatever you use your Master or Duress password to unlock the app, these vaults and all items added to them will be available for both modes.
- Vaults you created in the Duress mode.
If you log in with your Master password, these vaults won’t be available. And vice versa, all vaults created in the normal mode won’t be available in the Duress one.
Great! Now you can easily protect your sensitive data and hide passwords, account details, whatnot even if you are under duress.
