While we're very confident of the strength of the Master Password algorithm, we're also constantly keeping an eye out
for what the evolutions are of hackers' tools and capabilities. To give you the best possible protection, there is
always the possibility that we'll have to make tweaks to the Master Password algorithm in order to fend off any
attempts at breaking in.
</p>
<p>
Usually, these tweaks will be automatically applied when you install the latest version. In this case, you will notice
nothing and all you need to take away from this is that it's best to always be running the latest version of Master Password.
</p>
<p>
It is possible, however, that to apply an upgrade to your passwords, a new password will need to be set for your site's
account. In this case, Master Password will leave your passwords the way they are but give you the <em>option</em> of
upgrading your passwords when it's convenient to you. Whenever you're ready, just tap the upgrade password icon and
Master Password will show you the old password and the new one so that you can easily update your site's account.
</p>
<p>
<em>Please note</em>: if Master Password warns you that you have outdated passwords, it's best to upgrade them all
as soon as convenient. If you lose your device or data and recreate your Master Password user on another device,
Master Password can only regenerate the passwords for you that you've upgraded. iCloud/iTunes sync or exports are not
affected, so these are good ways to safely back up your passwords.
