Add a option to disable PIN #126

Open

Description

@skrabadiloseidon

Please add a option to disable the need of entering a PIN if the user wants to. If you switch between multiple wallets its very annoying that you need to enter the PIN again and again. I think most of the users already locks their phone by PIN, fingerprint, ... . So please add a option to disable this in settings. This would improve the UX a lot.

    I second this. My phone lets me lock down any app with bio-auth, so having a PIN too is redundant and tedious.

    Support custom PIM instead of mandatory

    Hi everyone, and sorry for the very late reply.

    Thanks for the feedback. We know that typing the PIN again and again is annoying.

    Asking for the PIN is a deliberate decision. It protects your funds if someone gets hold of your phone while it's unlocked. For example, if you leave it unlocked on a table, or you hand it to someone to show them a ticket. Your phone's own lock doesn't help in those cases. We explained this in more detail in this comment on #43.

    To make unlocking faster, recent versions of Muun for Android let you use your fingerprint instead of typing the PIN. Go to Settings → Security and turn on "Fingerprint unlock". The option only shows up if your phone supports it and has a fingerprint set up. You can still use your PIN when the fingerprint doesn't work.
