Graceful reload / update (no lock on update) #292

Closed perry-mitchell closed 7 months ago

perry-mitchell commented 5 years ago

There are methods to use when the extension updates to ensure state continuity. Perhaps we can prevent vaults being locked when this occurs.

Might be an idea to look into ways of storing the user's password or key in a secure manner during the update process..

I'm not sure if this is same scenario, Bitwarden allows storing key unsecure on storage with a warning to user. image

No longer needed in V3. State is persistent due to desktop app reliance.

Thanks for your works! I use this on mobile too (kiwi browser) and state is lost more easily on mobile. I think we should be able to opt in and save key on local storage. I had to move back to bitwarden just because of this.
