I don't want to lock my phone at all, I only lock my password managers. Therefore I can't even use wallet. I wonder if I'll even be able to use it for IDs.

- duxup 5y agoIs wallet only available on the lock screen?
- wayneftw 5y agoNo, you can only use it (for credit cards) if you have a pin, face unlock or fingerprint id enabled on your phone. It has no locking ability on its own.
- aeontech 5y agoDoes that mean you don't sign in to your email provider (or any websites) on your phone? Or that you only use the browser in private mode and close all tabs as soon as they are done? Just curious how you mitigate the danger of a third party accessing your private information if your phone is ever lost/stolen.
- wayneftw 5y agoYeah, my only mitigation is that I just don't lose my phone.
- aeontech 5y agoIf you are logged in to your email on the device, whoever gains access can trivially reset most of your passwords though, so even if your password manager is locked, it only helps for passwords for things that don’t offer an email reset option… I am not particularly paranoid but I would feel very nervous about living like this…
- wayneftw 5y agoYeah, I know they can reset my passwords. They would have to care enough to do that first. They're not going to reset my bank password like that though... there is more security than just a password there. So what are they going to get to? My Amazon account? I don't really care about that.
