4 months agoI've shared your request for this type of legacy feature with our product team internally.
Your Emergency Kit, by default, contains the following information:
- Your sign-in address.
- Your email address.
- Your Secret Key.
You would also need to write your account password on the Emergency Kit in order for it to contain all of the information needed to sign into your account. If you're using two-factor authentication then you would need to include that along with your Emergency Kit. For example: a copy of a hardware security key that's added as a second-factor to your account, or a printed copy of the QR code that contains your 2FA TOTP secret (that appears when you turn on 2FA) so that someone can add it to their authenticator app. Alternatively, you would need to ensure that they have access to the device where your authenticator app is installed.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Would prefer an actual legacy feature.
