Hi there,

Thank you for your report! We are able to reproduce this issue. The error should be more specific, maybe hint the user that the problem is their device being unable to cope with their current PBKDF iterations settings, and not an incorrect user/master password.

If you wish to add any information/screenshot/recording or so, please do it here and our engineering team will review it.

My phone gives an error that the operation was cancelled when I set the iterations to 600,001

I’m unable to log in on iOS after changing the number of iterations to the new default of 600,000.
