Understanding SimpleumSafe

Create Safe on iPhone and set up iCloud sync to Mac

Already have a Safe?

The first sections show how to create a new Safe. For your existing Safe, follow these steps instead:

Open your Safe and its synchronization settings.
If synchronization has not been configured yet, select iCloud as the synchronization method. On iPhone, open “Configure Synchronization” to do this. If the synchronization method you want is already configured, keep it.
Return to the synchronization settings and tap “Connect other device to this Safe”. Then follow the guide from transferring the synchronization configuration. The corresponding Safe on the second device is created from this configuration.

iPhone

Start window

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

Create Safe on iPhone and set up iCloud sync to Mac

Select “Create safe”.

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

iPhone

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.

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

iPhone

Set up iCloud synchronization

Select iCloud as the sync type.

(Of course, you must have iCloud enabled on the iPhone.)

Select “Next”.

iPhone

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.
