Master Password Re-Prompt

For any

, you can activate the Master password re-prompt option from the Add or Edit screen to require verification of your

master password

to access or autofill sensitive vault items:

Master password re-prompt will behave slightly differently depending on which app you're using, for example:

• In the web app, browser extension, and desktop app viewing the item or editing anything about it with this enabled will require you to re-enter your master password.

• On mobile apps, only viewing hidden fields (e.g. passwords, hidden custom fields, credit card numbers) will require you to re-enter your master password. Editing anything about the item will also require you to re-enter your master password.

Users who do not have master passwords, for example those in organizations using

or

Key Connector

, will not have the master password re-prompt option available to them. Additionally, trusted contacts using

emergency access

will not be required to re-enter a master password in order to view a protected vault item.

warning

Master password re-prompt is not an encryption mechanism. This feature is an interface-only guardrail that a sophisticated user may find ways to work around. We recommend never leaving your vault unlocked when unattended or on a shared workstation.
