I recently upgraded to 5 from (older) version 4 of mSecure. To do this, I needed to create a new account and password to buy the app. The password I made is a real strong (long) one. Come to find out, I am forced to use that same long password for the app on my phone too. It was terrible to have to type that in every time I needed to use the app on my phone. I feel I did not need that much security on the app as my phone locks already, so I changed the password to a simple 6 digit one. Then I realized doing that also changed the password on my user/customer account for mSecure too!

So I feel I am forced to suffer using a long password to open this app, or have a terribly unsecure password for my account.  I do not use face recognition or fingerprint reading

Do these passwords NEED to be the same? Why can't we choose to have a local password to unlock the app. Just as a reference, I do not want store my data in the cloud, it is local on my computer at home and use my own secure WiFi for backups. So I do not need my password to be the same as a cloud storage location. 

Am I missing a trick to have separate passwords?

Since the local app login password seems to link to my customer account, does that mean all my passwords do too? I am a bit nervous since I do not know what goes on in the background of the app. I am assuming I am only saving these locally at my home, but I am not sure.

Thanks
