Android Unlock Pattern as master password? #46

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Entering the master password when you need something from the safe, takes 
ages (well, at least too long when you're in need of something fast).

Wouldn't it be nice have a screen like the default 'Android Unlock 
Pattern' to unlock the safe?

This a question of security vs. convenience.  Given that user will likely store 
very 
sensitive information in secrets, the choice was made more towards the former 
than the 
latter.  As already discussed in the group email list, the android is secure 
enough 
imho.
