step-by-step guide

1. Adding the Drive BT to the App (Pairing)

  • Connect the Drive to a computer with the USB cable.
  • Start the app, tap the Drive name and follow the on-screen instructions.

2. Unlocking the Drive

CAUTION: Possible loss of data, settings, and password. After 10 consecutive failed attempts to unlock, the drive will be erased (reset). Refer to Brute Force Hacking in the User Manual.

NOTE: For security, we strongly suggest changing the factory password to a new password.

3. Changing the Password

PASSWORD REQUIREMENTS: 7-15 digits, special characters are okay. Cannot all be the same number/letters nor consecutive numbers/letters. (4444) (1234)

  • Unlock the drive in the app.
  • Tap the desired drive name.
  • Tap Change Password and enter your current password.
  • Enter new password and then retype it into the
    Confirm field.
  • Tap Change Password.

4. Disconnecting and Locking

Unplug the cable — the drive locks automatically. Generally, ejecting it first is not necessary, but preferable. To lock the drive without unplugging it, swipe left on the drive name on your phone and tap Lock.
