==== 3.2 Add a GUI Password ====

# In the web interface, click on the “Actions” button (gear icon) in the top right corner.
# Select '''“Settings”''' from the dropdown menu.
# In the Settings page, scroll down to the '''“GUI”''' section.
# Find the '''“GUI Authentication User”''' field and enter a username.
# In the '''“GUI Authentication Password”''' field, enter a strong password.
# Check '''“Use HTTPS for GUI”''' so we can visit the server using https://androidstuff.home.arpa:8384 instead. It’s a good habit. :)

<blockquote>'''Note:''' Choose a complex password so some random person who attaches to your home wifi if you forget to set up a guest network that has no LAN access can’t mess with your Syncthing configuration.

<li>Click '''“Save”''' at the bottom of the page.</li>
<li>Syncthing will prompt you to confirm the changes. Click '''“Yes”''' to apply the new settings.</li>
<li>You’ll be logged out and prompted to log in with your new credentials.</li>
<li>Attempt to access the interface again. You should be prompted for the username and password you set. If not, you messed something up. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, until this asks you for a password to log in.</li></ol>
