Best to write your data down. Do not put on device or online.

I mean, the app offers encryption of the data, so you'd have to enter a password. And you can encrypt your phone as well. If it gets to a point where you are forced to enter the password, a piece of paper in your drawer is probably not much safer.

It's really beyond fucked up that this is something people have to think about.
