How to Lock Soliton PasswordManager on iPhone With Face ID (iOS 18 Steps)

Time needed

4 taps

Needs iOS 18 or later

Works for Soliton PasswordManager whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold Soliton PasswordManager's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Soliton PasswordManager behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode; choose Hide and Require Face ID instead to move it into App Library's Hidden folder as well.

Lock Soliton PasswordManager with Face ID

Find Soliton PasswordManager on your Home Screen or in App Library.
Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. Soliton PasswordManager now asks for authentication every time it opens.

To test it, close Soliton PasswordManager from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.

Hide Soliton PasswordManager in App Library

Touch and hold Soliton PasswordManager's icon and tap Require Face ID.
Choose Hide and Require Face ID instead of Require Face ID.
Confirm. The icon leaves your Home Screen and moves to the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library.
To open it later, swipe to App Library, tap Hidden and authenticate.

Hiding also locks the app. To undo either, touch and hold the icon again and choose Don't Require Face ID.

Why lock Soliton PasswordManager?

Soliton PasswordManager is a password manager, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. A password manager holds the keys to every other account. Data collection on the label should be limited to what syncing and billing need, and your vault should be end-to-end encrypted.

Business apps often handle other people's data — clients, colleagues and customers — so what they collect can affect more than you.

A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what Soliton PasswordManager sends to its developer; for that, see Soliton PasswordManager's full privacy report.

FAQ

Does Soliton PasswordManager have its own passcode?

Some apps offer an in-app PIN or biometric lock in their settings. The App Store privacy label does not say whether Soliton PasswordManager does; the iOS 18 lock works regardless.

What happens to Soliton PasswordManager's notifications when it is locked?

Locked and hidden apps do not show message previews or content in notifications, and their content does not appear in Spotlight search or Siri suggestions.

Can someone who knows my passcode open a locked app?

Yes. If Face ID fails, the lock falls back to your device passcode. Keep the passcode private if the lock matters to you.

Is a locked Soliton PasswordManager encrypted?

The lock controls who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change how the app stores or syncs data. Encryption depends on the developer and on your device passcode.

Why can't I see the Require Face ID option?

You need iOS 18 or later. Some Apple apps such as Settings, Calculator, Maps and Camera cannot be locked or hidden.

Does hiding Soliton PasswordManager remove it from my purchase history?

No. Hidden apps still appear in App Store purchases and in Settings › Apps, and Screen Time reports still include them.
