Authenticate with password
Use your master password to unlock wallet, for your transactions, or when importing accounts to help secure your wallet.
Ways to authenticate via password
In SubWallet, you can choose to authenticate with password at different frequencies:
Always required: When choosing this option, after the auto-lock time is applied, you will need to enter your master password to regain access to the wallet. Once done, you can perform transactions or import accounts without having to verify with password again.
When needed: When choosing this option, after the auto-lock time is applied, you will still have access to your wallet, but you will have to verify with password as the final confirmation step to perform transactions or import accounts

Step 1: Open the SubWallet extension and click on the 
icon in the top left corner to get to the Settings section.
Step 2: In the Settings section, select “Security settings”.
Step 3: Select "Authenticate with password".
