A password manager you can unlock with a hand gesture
LegendPass uses your phone camera to recognize a hand pose you register in the app. It is a working authentication option for your password vault—not a gesture drawn on the screen.
What is a password manager with hand gesture authentication?
It is a password manager that can verify a registered hand pose as an authentication step before opening the vault. In LegendPass, the phone camera detects hand landmarks and checks the pose against the one you registered.
How LegendPass hand gesture recognition works
- Register your hand pose in LegendPass by following the in-app camera prompts.
- The app captures hand landmarks and saves a gesture template on the device.
- When gesture authentication is required, present the registered pose to the camera.
- LegendPass compares the captured pose with your registered template before continuing authentication.
This camera-based hand gesture recognition is different from drawing a pattern on a touchscreen. Your password vault still relies on its master-password-based encryption; gesture recognition provides an additional way to authenticate access to the app.
See the plain-English guide to hand gesture recognition, or visit the LegendPass features page for the other ways to protect your vault.
