TLDRvia the TL;DR App

Today, while using a Ledger Nano S — I was shocked to see this scary message after I left my ledger nano s for few minutes while a transaction was confirming. The message was scrolling horizontally saying “Vires in Numeris

If the Auto-Lock feature is activated, your Nano S will enter into stand-by mode after a delay you can choose (1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes). Then, each time your Nano S will be connected and not used during this selected delay, it will run stand-by mode. When you want to use again your device, you will have to press both buttons and re-enter your PIN code.

  1. Open the “Settings” of the Nano S
  2. Select “Security”
  3. Select “Auto-lock”

Scroll to choose your favorite delay and press both buttons to validate or select OFF if you do not want to set this mode
