Write down your SSH password

⚠️ WARNING, READ THIS FIRST ⚠️

Make sure you have saved your SSH password somewhere secure, or you have setup a SSH key

You can find the SSH password in your settings: Settings > Help > Copyrights and licenses > General information (scroll down).

Failure to do so could result in a soft-bricked device that requires emergency recovery.

Factory reset may brick your device

This function may not do what you are expecting. While it resets all user data, it will not restore the device to the original factory condition. It will reset your SSH password and remove all SSH keys, which may make it impossible to connect to your device if it is malfunctioning.

See remarkable.guide for more information on how to properly factory reset your device.

Take special care if you are using a reMarkable 2.
