3 months ago Thanks for your report. This is done intentionally as we don't want to lock out our users, especially in emergency cases where they need to get access to their vault as quick as possible. We've updated/revised this user experience multiple times and we figured there is no 'best' way. In the past we got a lot of emails and bug reports from people thinking the 'auto biometrics' feature was broken or glitching out because they were unaware of the password reminder. I'm all ears for a better solution but simply refraining the user from using biometrics won't do it.
Version
3.0.1
Source
F-Droid
Vault encryption
Yes (with biometric unlock)
Device
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and Samsung Galaxy S21 5G
Android version
8.0.0 and 14
ROM
OEM
Steps to reproduce
When the app asks you to input the manual passcode as a way of the user not forget it, just hit cancel and then click the Biometric option again to bring the pop back.
What do you expect to happen?
Not to be possible to cancel or at least the app to insist in the passcode
What happens instead?
The Biometric pop up comes up after cancelling the manual input of the passcode
