Security
What is the PIN for?
You can enable a PIN for security over your reports.
When you enable your PIN you will be required to enter it each time you wish to view your reports.
It stops people accessing your reports when you don’t want other people to be able to view them.
Tip: It does not stop people opening KOTRA Riel and entering transactions. It is important you have proper security on your phone such as PIN, pattern or face ID.

Is my data safe with KOTRA Riel?
As with any information stored on your phone, it is important you enable your phone security to ensure your data is safe. This could be by enabling a PIN code or face ID. This will ensure all of your phone data, including the data you record on KOTRA Riel is safe.
You can also enable PIN security within KOTRA which means you will be required to enter a PIN before you can view reports on KOTRA Riel. This is helpful if you lend your phone to friends or family members and don’t want anyone to view your reports.
