How does this work?
The app will generate a unique master key then combined with your master password to encrypt your data using the new industry 256-bit encryption, chosen by Google: ChaCha20-Poly1305.
What does the master key do?
The encryption key used to encrypt data is derived from your private master password. But the password is only plain text, then with the unique master key combined to derive a unique and impossible-to-break encryption key for 256-bit encryption, chosen by Google: ChaCha20-Poly1305.
What happens to my data?
Your data will never leave your machine. 1LimX works entirely offline, which you can disable the internet on the app and start using without a problem. The only internet usage is for checking your premium status.
What happens to my master password, master key?
Your master password, master key also never leave your device. If your device system has a secure storage it'll stay there(iOS, macOS use Keychain, Android uses encrypted Shared Preferences, Windows uses Credential Vault, Linux uses Secret Service API/libsecret), if not only encrypted version of master key is stored and you must remember the master password.
If the app is uninstalled or if you set up FaceID/TouchID then one day FaceID/TouchID is not working you will not be able to access again unless you have saved these credentials somewhere else!
What is an 1LimX backup file? Is it encrypted?
1LimX backup file is an encrypted file generated by 1LimX app that packs all your data into one single sharable file. You can share and access your data in other computers where 1LimX is also installed with the file.
So YES, backup files are encrypted just like the data you enter into 1LimX by ChaCha20-Poly1305, for a secure data transferring.
