Description

Currently Aegis is not compatible with Ripple, it would be really nice and helpful for both projects if support would be added. Aegis would have an extra layer of security and Ripple would have one more app that has support, and this would incentivize Ripple's devs to continue with their work.

It would be even greater it you could add a setting to delete the entries, not just to hide the app when triggered. A lot of apps have support for it but only enable this option, which is kind of lame since it can have a bigger potential.

Thanks!

Research direction

First determine how Aegis can integrate with Ripple's panic button and define whether triggering it should hide the app, delete entries, or support both behaviors; done means Ripple compatibility and the requested deletion setting are implemented and verified.
