+# How to encrypt password with bcrypt?
+
+It is not safe to store password unencrypted, so this app uses `bcrypt` encryption. There are several ways to encrypt your password.
+
+## 1. Set password through web GUI
+Then the app will encrypt it for you.
+
+## 2. Encrypt password yourself
+On Linux encryption can be done with `htpasswd` command:
+```sh
+htpasswd -nbBC 10 USER YourSecretPassword | sed 's/USER://'
+```
+
+## 3. Encrypt password online
+There are online tools for `bcrypt` encryption.
