You can keep more than one vault, say one for work and one for personal notes. They are fully separate, and Myne keeps only one open at a time. This article covers switching, what’s visible before you unlock, and how vaults stay independent.
One vault open at a time
Myne unlocks one vault at a time. Switching to another means locking the current one and unlocking the next with its own password. There is no way to hop between vaults without unlocking, because each vault’s key is only in memory while it is open.
When you have two or more vaults, Myne shows a picker at launch, and the vault-switcher chip at the top of the sidebar lets you switch while you work.
What’s visible before you unlock
Vaults you haven’t opened are shown neutrally: a locked vault appears as Vault 1, Vault 2, and so on, not by a name that could reveal what’s inside. Be aware of what is visible before any vault is unlocked: how many vaults you have, and when each was last opened. Their names, contents, and notes stay sealed until you unlock them.
Vaults are independent
Each vault is its own world: its own notes, folders, settings, recovery phrase, and backups. A backup is of one specific vault and restores only that vault. Changing your password in one vault does nothing to another. Nothing crosses between them.
Managing the list
From the picker you can create a new vault or open an existing one. Removing a vault from the list means deleting it: there is no “remove from the list but keep the files” option, and Myne doesn’t pretend there is. Deleting a vault is permanent (see what that entails in Delete a vault).
Limits
Because only one vault is open at a time, search, the graph, backlinks, and backups all act on the current vault only. There is no cross-vault search or linking.
