How to open the editor, move the cursor, use the three keyboard pages, generate random passwords and save.
This guide details every operation in the on-device editor. If you just want to create your first credential, start with the Create your first credential guide.
From the main screen, navigate to the credential you want to edit using Left/Right. If you have many, hold Left/Right to jump 10 slots at a time.When the right credential is on screen (you’ll see its number at the top left — here 4), move on to the next step.
The active field shows as an inverted white block on the left (globe = site, silhouette = user, padlock = password, key = 2FA). Switch between fields with Down/Up:
Site ↓ User ↓ Pass ↓ 2FA (if the credential has TOTP)
When you’re on the right field, hold Center for ~1 second to enter the editor.A short Center press types the field to the host (not what you want). A long press (~800 ms, until you see the large halo) opens the editor.
When you enter the editor, focus starts on KB1 (row 2). Left/Right move the keyboard cursor within the current row.Press Right to advance the keyboard cursor, Left to go back. At the end/start, the cursor jumps to the control in the adjacent row (Rand, Save, <, >).
With the desired character under the keyboard cursor, press Center. It gets inserted at the field cursor’s current position, which then advances automatically.The L is inserted at position 5 of the field and the field cursor advances to position 6. If you wanted to replace instead of insert, read the next step.
Sometimes you want to edit characters in the middle of the field, not just append to the end. For that, use the < and > symbols on row 2.Reach the < or > symbol with Left (from KB1) and press Center. The field cursor moves one position left or right. When it’s on the position you want to edit, go back to KB1/KB2/KB3 and press Center on the new letter — it overwrites the existing one.
Keyboard insertions overwrite the character at the current position, they don’t push existing content. So “deleting” a character is simply moving onto it and entering a space (KB3, first character).
For password fields, instead of typing letter by letter, use Rand. It generates a strong random password (up to 32 characters).The format follows what you picked in Settings → Pwd: (see Menu). Six formats are available:

Words
Capitalised BIP39 words joined by a random separator (-_.!@#*+)
Ocean-Cargo-Mint-River-Sun
Words+Num
Same, plus a 2-digit group after the first word
River_28_Mango_Ocean_Tiger
The word formats use a built-in word list and fit as many words as they can under 32 characters. Rand on the site or user fields always uses the full Symbols set regardless of this setting.Navigate to Rand with Down from row 2. Press Center: the field fills up. If you don’t like it, press Center again to regenerate.
When you’re done, navigate to Save (bottom-left corner) and press Center. The changes are encrypted with AES-128 CBC and written to EEPROM.The editor closes and you return to the main view. The credential now has the changes.
Leaving the editor without pressing Savediscards the changes. There is no confirmation: the moment you change screen via any path other than Save, what you typed is lost.
