Create Safe on iPhone and set up device-to-device sync to iPad

Start window

When you start SimpleumSafe for the first time, you will see the following dialog. Select “Create or add Safe”.

Select “Create Safe”.

  1. Enter a name for the new Safe.
  2. Enter an appropriate password.
  3. Repeat the password and click the “Next” button.

Create recovery password

You now have the option of creating a recovery password while creating the Safe. You can do this at any time later, but we recommend creating it right away.

  1. Click on “Create recovery password”
  2. Write it down or copy it to a password manager.
  3. Click Next.

Set up device-to-device synchronization

Select Device-to-Device as the sync type.

Select “Next”.

Send synchronization configuration

In order to be able to synchronize with another device, a local Safe must be created there in a very special way. To do this, SimpleumSafe creates a “synchronization configuration” for the Safe that has just been created. This can now be transmitted wirelessly or as a file to other devices.

In the picture you can see that SimpleumSafe now wants to send this configuration. There is currently no device available for reception.

Start window (iPad)

When you start SimpleumSafe, you will see the following dialog.

Now the synchronization configuration is sent to the Mac via radio (encrypted, of course).
