Settings are grouped in six sections. -## First heading +## General -Text. +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **App theme** | Light, dark or following the battery saver. | +| **Password file organization** | How autofill names the files it saves, for example `work/example.org.gpg` or `work/example.org/alice@example.org.gpg`. | +| **Password sort order** | Folders first, or recently used first. | +| **Disable pull to sync action** | Stops the pull down gesture on the list from starting a sync. | +| **Recursive filtering** | Search also looks inside the folders below the current one. | +| **Open search on start** | Opens the search bar when the app starts. | +| **Show all files and folders** | Lists files that are not passwords as well. | +| **Enable biometric authentication** | Asks for your fingerprint when the app starts. See [Security]({{< relref "/hardenedpass/reference/security" >}}) for what this does and does not protect. | + +## Autofill + +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **Enable Autofill** | Makes HardenedPass the autofill service. See [Autofill]({{< relref "/hardenedpass/using/autofill" >}}). | +| **Default username** | Used when autofill cannot find a username in the entry or its path. | +| **Custom domains** | Domains whose subdomains autofill treats as separate sites. | + +## Passwords + +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **Password generator type** | The generator that opens first: Classic (the Random tab) or Diceware. | +| **Password copy timeout** | Seconds a copied password stays in the clipboard, 45 by default. 0 means forever. | +| **Show the password** | Whether a decrypted password is visible right away. Copying still works when it is hidden. | +| **Automatically copy password** | Copies the password as soon as an entry is decrypted. | + +## Repository + +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **Rebase on pull** | On, your local commits go on top of the server's. Off, a merge commit is made instead. On by default. | +| **Edit Git server settings** | Changes the repository URL and how you log in. | +| **HTTP(S) proxy settings** | Sets a proxy. Shown for HTTPS remotes only. | +| **Local Git config & utilities** | Commit name and email, commit log, and the recovery tools described in [Sync]({{< relref "/hardenedpass/using/sync" >}}). | +| **Import SSH key** | Reads a private SSH key from a file. | +| **Generate SSH key pair** | Makes a new SSH key on the phone. | +| **View generated public SSH key** | Shows the public half, to add to your server. | +| **Delete repository** | Deletes the local copy of the store. The server's copy is not touched, and neither are local commits you did not sync: those are gone. | + +## Misc + +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **Export passwords** | Copies the store, still encrypted, to a folder you choose. | +| **Workaround clipboard history feature** | On phones with a clipboard history, fills it with numbers to push passwords out. | +| **Debug logging** | Turns on debug logs, after an app restart. Release builds only. | + +## PGP settings + +| Setting | What it does | +|---|---| +| **Key manager** | Lists imported keys, imports new ones and deletes old ones. | +| **Encrypt in ASCII armor mode** | Writes entries as text instead of binary. Leave it off unless you know you need it. | +| **Enable passphrase caching** | Remembers the key's passphrase, so that entries open without asking. Experimental, and needs an active screen lock. | +| **Automatically clear passphrase cache** | Forgets the passphrase when the screen turns off. | -- cgit v1.2.3
