Add ability to lock a Vault Note immediately

3 votes

Currently, Vault Notes will lock after an undisclosed timeout. We should have the ability to lock the note immediately (via the (settings menu of the note in the upper right hand corner)

I marked this as "Under consideration" but I'm not quite sure what it means. Maybe you could send me an email with a bit more detail on what it means to "lock the note immediately." I presume you're talking about applying Vault encryption to a non-encrypted note...after entering content in it? Or before? Or you might be talking about them locking for reading after re-logging in? As you can tell, a bit more detail could help me understand the prospects for this proposal :)

I think this is referring to needing to re-input your password to unlock a note you have previously unlocked if too much time has passed. I agree it would be nice to be able to configure a timeout after which Vault notes would re-lock themselves, and the ability to "lock now".
