lock password protected notes automatically in windows application #245

Open suppergit opened 7 months ago

suppergit commented 7 months ago

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you would like to happen.

In windows application, the safe is closed when a password prorected note is open, it has to open the safe in the setting to lock the password protected notes again, it is possible to lock the notes automatically when a password protected note is closed or when the application is switched to background?

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

I'm not completely sure I understood your description. When you work on a note which is in the safe, then close this note, you want to close the safe automatically, is this what you mean? Or when the application is minimized it should close as well, or even when it becomes inactive (switched to background)?

I think this would make working with such notes very uncomfortable, one would have to enter the password each time one want's to read the content of a note. It would also make searching through notes impossible, because only a single note would be open at a time.

Maybe offering a keyboard shortcut to open/close the safe in the overwiev would help too, what do you think?

Yes. either of them is fine. The later one works in android app now.

It has the same problem for version 8 at android, and the setup of prevent creation of screenshots doesn't work, it can take screenshots no matter it is enable. In version 7 of android, the safe will be closed automatically when the button of home or menu is pressed.

The problem with the screenshot protection is solved in the current version

In version 8.1.0 on Android, a function was implemented which closes the safe automatically, after the app was more than 3 min in the background. This time span should be enough to copy paste content from other apps, without having to reopen the safe.
