Editing your passcode or timeout period

To help you keep your Sync™ app secure, a passcode is required for certain actions and to resume activity after a period of inactivity.

To edit your passcode, or the frequency it is required, please follow the steps below:

1) Open the app Home screen

2) Select your initials in the Top Right of the screen

3) Select “App security”

4) Select ‘Timeout period’ and adjust this as desired.

The timeout period is the period of inactivity before your passcode will be required to open the app.

For more info on how to protect your account, please click here.
