Session Locking and Sign-Out
How PopaDex session locks, timeouts and sign-out work, including browser-storage limits.
PopaDex can lock access to encrypted financial information or ask you to sign in again when a session expires. Use your device’s screen lock when stepping away.
Inactivity and session expiry
The app checks for inactivity and expired sessions. Timing can depend on your device, browser and whether the app is running in the background. Follow the unlock or sign-in prompt shown in the app.
What locking does
Locking restricts access to your encrypted vault. It does not delete your saved financial records.
Use your device’s own screen lock for an immediate lock. Previously displayed information, screenshots and downloaded files need their own protection.
Unlocking or signing in again
Follow the app’s prompt. Device-based unlock and browser sign-in may offer different options.
If you have forgotten your password, read password reset and recovery first. Restoring sign-in and restoring encrypted financial access are separate steps.
Signing out
Signing out ends the account session and clears active vault access. Convenient unlock uses protected device storage without retaining a readable password.
Signing out does not erase exports, screenshots or downloaded files. Keep your recovery code somewhere secure, especially before clearing device storage or replacing a device.
On a shared device, sign out when finished and close your browser session. Protect the device itself with its screen lock.
