What about switching devices? Is the password enough (I guess not since it's salted)?


The salt is kept on the server, so you can just fetch it again when switching devices.

However, on the long term, we plan on considering passwords more of a backup feature, and instead move to a model where you just authorise your devices from running devices (though can always fallback to passwords).
