Downloading Onlykey App?

Hi Onlykey members:

I’m new to Onlykey and just have to ask these questions. I’m still learning how to use it. Forgive me for being overly cautious.

  • How do we know that loading the Onlykey app on our PCs is safe?

  • Is there a way to log off from Onlykey without having to remove it from your USB port? I think I’d like to keep it plugged in all the time and enter the PIN each time I need to use it.

Thank you!!

You can review the source here GitHub - trustcrypto/OnlyKey-App: The OnlyKey App is used for the initial setup and configuration of OnlyKey. Supported on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Chromebook (with Chrome App).
The application is also signed by CryptoTrust LLC.

Hold the #3 button for 5 seconds and the device locks if you would like to do that instead of removing.
