Keepassdx: Add PIN unlock

Created on 19 Jul 2018  路  5Comments  路  Source: Kunzisoft/KeePassDX

There are devices which use custom ROMs, which break Fingerprint integration.
Always typing in the password is a pain in certain parts of the boddy, and keeping the master-pass weak is not an option.
We should have an unlock option alternative to fingerprint, so I suggest either PIN unlock or the lock which is used by Android (whichever is easier to implement).
Thank you.

The system PIN unlock must be tested, the Android Keystore must have special security conditions to be used with this feature. Directly linked to discussion #102
We will therefore see what is the best possible integration.

I saw your previous message, I will implement a system of quick unlock but I must first refactor the connection system and implement sessions which will take time. I will add PIN, but I have to do things in order not to break everything. ;)

@J-Jamet Yes, sorry, I could not find my comment in the issues, so I decided to create a separate one =)
Do you have some kind of roadmap or task priority? I just want to now approximate ETA for this PIN to be available (is it like 1 week, 1 month... 10 years xD... ).
Thanks.

To be honest, I do not know myself, it depends on the bugs to solve, problems encountered during development and other features to implement. ~I would say in 1 or 2 months. _(For now, I will refactor the search system to make it better, because the current version adds bugs every time I add a feature.)_~

Hello,
i was right searching for this feature since i don't have a phone with a fingerprint sensor, and found this thread.

I know there's no ETA, so i'm just adding myself to the list of interested users about this feature to hopefully boost the priority a bit =)
