Why lock a file​

When multiple people share the same device, you can add a password to a sprite bundle to keep unreleased or confidential work private. Locked sprites hide their thumbnails in the gallery and require the password before they open.

info

File Lock is currently available only on Resprite for iOS. Android and desktop builds do not include this feature yet.

Locked sprite bundle

Add, change, or remove a password​

  1. Open the sprite bundle you want to protect.
  2. Choose Menu ▸ Sprite ▸ Add Password / Change Password.
  3. Enter a new password and confirm. To remove protection, open the dialog and press OK without typing a new value.
note

Passwords are stored locally with light-weight protection. Always keep a secure copy of critical artwork and avoid sharing the device with untrusted users.
