Lock & unlock wallet

Ensuring your assets are secure when not in use and instantly accessible when needed.

Lock your wallet

To lock your wallet, from the SubWallet homepage, simply click the Lock button at the top right of the screen.

Super easy, right?

You can also lock your wallet by selecting the "Settings" tab on the sidebar to get to the Settings screen, scrolling down to find the "Lock" button, and then hitting the button.

Unlock your wallet

If you have previously locked the wallet or been inactive for a while, your wallet will be locked.

To unlock the wallet, on the Welcome screen, enter your master password and click "Unlock".

Change auto-lock time

Auto-lock is a security feature that locks your wallet after a period of inactivity.

Step 1: On the SubWallet homepage, click the "Settings" tab on the sidebar to get to the Settings section.

Step 2: In the Settings section, select "Security settings".

Step 3: Choose "Wallet auto-lock".

Step 4: A popup screen will appear on the right side. Select the lock time you want to apply.

By default, SubWallet locks your wallet after 15 minutes of not being used, but you can adjust the lock time to fit your needs.
