Backup password screen: emphasise password field, move details to dedicated pages

0
All issues

Description

On the backup password generation screen, the details section currently has more visual emphasis than the backup password field itself because it's larger.

Wanted

  • Give the backup password field the primary visual emphasis.
  • Move the details out of the main view, behind a disclosure/link.
  • Drop the current drop-down expansion. Instead, make dedicated Markdown pages for the backup password details, similar to the ones used in Settings.

Fixed in https://github.com/badbundle/vault-app/pull/597 (merged as e54eb1e0).

  • Password first: the screen now opens with a centred header ("Choose a Backup Password" or "Choose a New Password") and goes straight into the fields and the Set/Change button. The field is focused after authentication, and Return moves through the fields and submits.
  • No more drop-downs: a single "About Backup Passwords" row opens a details page. It has help questions that open Markdown documents the same way Settings > Help does: the new Backup-Password.md and Backup-Password-Changing.md, plus the existing backup security FAQ. It also shows the key generation info.
  • Navigation: the sheet owns its own navigation stack, so opening the details page and coming back keeps what you typed and doesn't ask you to authenticate again.
