Question about lock after idle
Is there a reason why there isn't an option to automatically instantly lock the vault after autofill?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your response! I understand the balance between convenience and security, but for me, security is the priority. Bitwarden, for example, offers an option to lock the vault immediately after autofill, which I find valuable. Unlocking the vault again only takes me about two seconds, so the added step doesn’t feel inconvenient.
If convenience were my main concern, I’d simply rely on the browser’s password manager for autofill. However, I prefer ensuring that my vault remains as secure as possible. I believe an option to lock immediately after autofill would be a great addition for users like me who prioritize security over convenience.
Thanks again for considering this feedback!
Best,
