Vault switching is for opening vaults that already exist. Vaults are created during initial setup, so this guide focuses only on moving between existing vaults and confirming where you are before saving anything new.

Before you start

  • Unlock your current vault.
  • Know which existing vault you want to open next.
  • Have the required password, PIN, biometric prompt, or security key ready.

Steps

  1. Open the vault switcher from the unlocked vault screen.
  2. Choose the existing vault you want to open next.
  3. Confirm with the required unlock method.
  4. Check the active vault label.
  5. Save new items only after the correct vault is active.

Safety note

Do not assume the active vault changed until the label confirms it. This helps prevent saving private items into the wrong vault.
