This feature enhances security, transparency, and user control over wallet operations. Here is a detailed guide to using the Vault and its options: ### **Step 1: Navigate to the Vult Settings** * Go to **Settings** → **Wallet** → **Vault**. On the Vault page, you will see your active split key.

### **Step 2: Create a New Split Key** * Click on the **New Split Key** on top right. A **Split Key** will be generated and displayed. Upon storing, an **Active Split Key** will be generated and displayed.

### Step 3: Manage your Split Key Once the **Active Split Key** is generated, you can perform several actions:

1. **Copy the Key:** Locate the active split key on the Vault page. Click the **Copy** button to copy the key for backup or secure sharing. 2. **View Key Details:** Click on the **Details** icon beside the active split key. Review the metadata for the key, including: 1. **Created On**: The date the key was created. 2. **Shared**: The sharing status of the key. 3. **Last Used**: The last date the key was accessed. 4. **View Restrictions:** The restrictions for this key

3. **Switch Key:** If you have more than one key this icon will be shown. You can click on it to switch between keys. ### **Step 4: Manage Restrictions and Share** The Vault allows users to control access to their wallet keys by applying **restrictions**. You can securely share split keys with other users using the **Share** feature. To manage restrictions: * Click the **Share** button on the Vault page.

* In the sharing window, select the specific **restrictions** to apply. Some default permissions are set which you can change it. The restrictions are:
