Pin Lock

I am closely following the messages around the app syncing issues that many users are currently experiencing, including me. I have signed up to the beta app and for the most part it seems to be working for me, although it took a few attempts, and syncing now takes an age

One thing I would to raise - I am really pleased to see that there is PiN lock functionality - but when you open the app, the list of accounts and balances is clearly visible behind the PIN LOCK. Any chance of ensuring that they only appear once you’ve verified your PIN?

Thanks

Carol

   I am not support staff, just a user.
   Hi Carol

   I am running Android mobile app (build 20260218)

   There are a number of issues related to Authentication.

   As you have found you can see Accounts data behind the Authentication window.

   Also Security can be bypassed and the app opens by:
   If I click on the Android <
   If I click on the Android three vertical lines.
   If I click on the Android O and then three vertical lines.
   If you click Use PIN and then click Cancel.

   Sean the Moneydance Developer is aware of the above so hopefully he is working on fixes.

   Have Fun, Stay safe.

   Hi Derek - thanks very much for taking the trouble to reply. It's clearly a faux Pinlock at the moment!

   I'm waiting with bated breath for the refreshed app.
