As promised in our proposal, we will post weekly updates to let you know what's going on regarding Keychain development.

Keychain extension

A new version was pushed on the store last week, hope you like the changes!
In the meantime, the development works still follows its course.

During the past week, I've started to implement a way for dApps to request a new account to be added to Keychain. This is particularly important to help onboarding new users without confusing them too much about key management.
Users will just have to go through the account creation process and voila, their new account will be available on Keychain, ready to use.

The feature is almost ready, I just need to make sure it also works on a freshly installed Keychain, when no master password is set yet.

Mobile App

I've been toying with react-native-keychain to further secure the accounts on our mobile app. There are some issues with biometrics authentication on some Android devices but it is being worked on. On the meantime, I'll only activate the "presence" authentication (PIN / pattern).
nateaguila@nateaguila has been working on creating an awesome design for our App, here's a sneak peek :
