|
#### Updating shared passwords
|
|
|
Passwords are released by creating a copy of the password in the account of the user with whom the password was shared.
|
|
|
By doing so, the receiver of the shared password can access the passwords without having access to your password library.
|
|
|
This also means that if a shared password is updated or the permissions of the share are changed, these changes need to be synchronized.
|
|
|
Since this synchronisation is done by the server in the background, it may take some minutes.
|
|
|
To make this process transparent to you, you will see a loading icon around the avatar of the user if there are changes pending for or from this specific user.
