I can see how to change the password for a particular folder, but is there an easy way to change the master password for the application when it starts up?

Thanks!

Hi there!

Open up the Advanced Preferences in Espionage and check if you're using the Login Keychain.

If you are then simply switch to the separate keychain, you'll be prompted to enter a custom password.

If you're already using the separate keychain, unfortunately Apple doesn't provide public APIs for us to use so that we can do this within Espionage, so instead open up the Keychain Access program (found in /Applications/Utilities), and then right-click (or control-click) on the Espionage keychain item in the top-left of the window. You'll see a popup menu and choose "Change Password for Keychain 'Espionage'".
