Hey everyone, it’s time for another update!
As of now both Android and iOS latest versions support Grin Addresses and Slatepack
Besides there is a couple things I’ve packed into the latest release as well:
- Automatic background update of the transactions state, so no need to pull down manually!
- Slightly different unlocking wallet mechanism under the hood, which would allow to speed things up a bit as well as removes the need to store password in JavaScript environment in the upcoming release.
- Android should have a slightly faster Fingeprint unlock mechanism.
- Implemented automatic screenshot taking before each release (Apple rejected a build recently because the screenshots were not up to date)
- And as always minor cosmetic lift-up and optimizations
What’s next?
Here is my current roadmap:
- Bring QR codes for encoding Slatepacks and Grin addresses (should be in the next release)
- Minimize places where sensitive data is exposed to the JavaScript runtime (continue my effort, which I’ve started in the current release).
- Introducing PIN instead of a password, which would allow to increase level of security and create a better UX for unlocking.
- Ability to change PIN
Also, I’m planning to release version 5.x of the wallet with a complete support of the upcoming hardfork on time!
Deprecation note!
After the upcoming hardfork Ironbelly would not support http and file transactions in favor of Grin addresses and Slatepack.
