**Q1. What is the problem that you are trying to solve?**  
Right after logging into passbolt, and attempting to retrieve a password, you are always prompted with:

> You need your passphrase to continue.

I think it would be desirable that when you first log in [to passbolt] it grants you access to your passwords for the next “5 minutes”.

**Q2 - Who is impacted?**  
Everyone

**Q3 - Why is it important and/or urgent?**  
Productivity / Ease of use.

**Q4 - What is your proposed solution? (optional)**  
I think generally that most times when a user logs into the passbolt system it seems a healthy assumption is they probably came here to immediately retrieve a password, should we ALWAYS force the user to enter the passphrase twice before they can get access to their 1st password, even if they JUST finished entering their passphrase?

> Q1. What is the problem that you are trying to solve? our Passbolt users don’t like the need to enter passwords for all kind of actions, i.e.: “the need to enter a password every 5 minutes is annoying”. Can this be changed? Either disabling it or increasing the log-in time? I understand that it increases security, but many of our users find it annoying. Q2 - Who is impacted? Everyone Q3 - Why is it important and/or urgent? It’s quite annoying. Q4 - What is your proposed solution? (optional…
