Myne holds your notes to a strict bargain: only you can read them, which also means only you are responsible for not losing access. This section covers the tools that keep that bargain workable: a recovery phrase for a forgotten password, backups you control, per-note snapshots, and a few housekeeping features.
Three words in this section mean specific things, and Myne keeps them apart:
- You restore from a backup. That word is reserved for backups.
- You unlock with your recovery phrase when you’ve forgotten your password, never “restore” for that.
- You clean up leftover files when a deletion didn’t finish, never “repair”.
What’s in this section
- If you forget your password: using the recovery phrase, what happens if both are lost, and why quick unlock with a PIN or Touch ID is a convenience rather than a recovery path.
- Back up your vault: exporting an encrypted backup, scheduling automatic backups, and the habit worth building.
- Restore from a backup: bringing a vault back from a backup file.
- Note snapshots: a short version history for each note.
- Clean up leftover files: clearing junk left by an interrupted deletion.
- Multiple vaults: keeping and switching between more than one vault.
