The following is a repeatable process that will generate the same keys and fingerprints
(even with different card serial numbers).
1. Reset the OpenPGP App
1. Set Key Templates from the OpenPGP App menu, if needed
1. On computer, use `gpg` to edit the key with a fixed timestamp:
```shell
gpg --faked-system-time 19990101T000000! --card-edit # note the exclamation mark to keep the time fixed
gpg> admin
gpg> generate
... # complete the wizard
```
While doing this, ensure that you use the same `--faked-system-time` and "Real Name" and "Email"
during the generation wizard to reproduce the same keys each time.
### On screen reset
The application can be reset as if it was fresh installed. In settings, choose reset and confirm.
