How to change your NordLocker Recovery Key on iOS

Introduction

This guide will explain how to change your NordLocker Recovery key on your iOS device.

Here's what to do

1. Open the NordLocker application, log in to your NordAccount, and unlock the application.
2. Click on the "Profile" button, located in the lower-right corner, and tap on the “Passwords” button.
3. Afterward, select the "Reset Cloud recovery key” button.
4. Enter your Cloud password and select the "Continue" option.
5. Alternatively, if you have enabled the biometric unlock, click on the “Face ID” button, located at the bottom, scan your face, and proceed.
6. Save or copy your new recovery key and click on the "Update Recovery Key" button.

Additional Tips

• Due to NordLocker’s end-to-end encryption, we never store your Cloud password or recovery key. If you have forgotten your Cloud password and lost your recovery key, unfortunately, there is no way to access your encrypted files, as NordLocker never stores your data. In this case, we suggest deleting your account and creating a new one to continue using NordLocker.
• We recommend saving and storing your passwords in a trusted password manager. You can save both your password and your recovery key with NordPass password manager for free.
