Unable to login to the new Lighning Terminal that was added in the 0.2.30 update #523

I noticed this was added but first thing it does is ask for a password. Both my lightning wallet password and default "bolt" password didn't work. How are we supposed to access this? Is there another default password?

Thanks

Yes, there is another password. The password used by Lightning Terminal is (unfortunately) stored in plaintext on the device, so I cannot re-use your existing password without compromising security. To prevent password re-use and increase security, myNode randomly generates a password for use by Lightning Terminal.

To find the password, go to the main Lightning page and then click on the "Show Password" button for Terminal.

@Z-and if you hit "Wallet" in the Lightning area in the main page, you can see it in there (see below) - let us know if it worked and if so, please close the issue! =)
