    I suppose the only method to update the encryption key is to decrypt, then re-encrypt?

    And I suppose I’d have to do this on every device that has the database synced?

    Thanks.

    Hi Ryan,

    Yes, that’s correct. Decrypt, then re-encrypt.

    Yes, that’s correct for your second question.

    The encryption doesn’t sync across device. The encryption is done on the database stored on that device.

    Another option would be to decrypt one device, re-encrypt with a different key, then remove the document from your other devices and use the Send Document function to re-send a copy of the newly encrypted document to the other devices.
