Settings and security

Privacy PIN

You can add additional security to PocketSmith on mobile by adding a privacy PIN from the settings tab. If this is turned on, you'll need to enter your 4-digit PIN to open the app.

Tap the icon in the top right of the app to access the settings screen.

Once you've set up a PIN, this will also enable Touch ID to access the iOS app!

Multitasking mode

If you have a PIN set up, you can also enable multitasking mode. This means you won’t need to re-enter your PIN if you briefly switch to another app. The app will wait two minutes before requiring your PIN again.
