Hive goes mobile - please add keychain for security

[detlev]

Mobile first

This is what google says for websites and this is what we see if we look into our private life. Everything is on the mobile device.

Hey Hive Family
let’s use keychain mobile

---

Keychain

There is a safe place to store your keys and share it with your mobile devices.

Keychain for iOS and Android and it look like this.

but today I tested this and I see some room for improvement at the Hive frontend tools.

Ecency

If I look today on my mobile and open peakd I see…

no keychain yet

---

peakd

My first choice at the notebook or PC. But the mobile use within the browser has some issues in usability. There is a keychain function on PC since ages but on mobile it is missing.

no keychain yet

All the games

As many of us play one or more of the Hive based games, I love to see a secure keychain integration as well for the mobile use.

I just gave dCrops.com and dCity.io a try and both where not really sexy on my mobile.

dCrops

no working keychain yet, but a logo

dCity

no working keychain yet
or I might be blind

My today result
mobile use of Hive is a pain!

Tested on a iPhone 10 with Safari and Chrome

I'm using keystone mobile on my tablet and it's pretty good. The browser could do with a few improvements, but it's allowing me to do a lot away from the pc

[detlev]

As it is quite new for iOS I see and wish some short improvements within the Hive Dapps

[steevc]

I'm on Android. Looks like it's actively developing

[preparedwombat]

I like Hivesigner just fine. Does that make me a Luddite?

[detlev]

nope, but many people switched to Keychain and I use this as well to educate people about hive

[bala41288]

I use hivesigner only if on mobile. If Hive Keychain brings a mobile version I guess we will no longer need Hivesigner.

[stoodkev]

There's a mobile version on both Android and iOS =)

[bala41288]

Yeah I know but will it work on mobile browser sites?

[detlev]

and it works perfect.

I love the funktion to update your mobile by a QR-code from the main keychain.

OK, I will do a post about this

[sicarius]

Dcity works in keychain mobile, it is a little hard to find but if you put your username in the login area, it will prompt for keychain as it should

[detlev]

cool, will try this

[demo.com]

ecency.com has integrated keychain and if you open it from hive keychain mobile app, you should see keychain login option, I think

[stoodkev]

I just checked and actually the Login with Keychain only uses Keychain to give posting authority to @esteem.app, instead of broadcasting everything through Keychain.

[ecency]

It looks like giving authority to ecency.app which shouldn't happen when keychain login, should work just like using posting key. We will check. Transfers and active permissions use hot signing, so keychain should work fine there, only social part seem to need bit tweaks.

[stoodkev]

Great to hear that! Looking forward to see the full integration.

[detlev]

I guess / hope ecency.com will update this soon as this is a realy cool mobile app.

We use this for beginners and non tech people a lot.

[stoodkev]

Thanks for the shoutout =)

[detlev]

I was waiting for iOS as I have many friends and family qho don't use a PC for all the social media and gaming.

Now we have to drive the usage!!

[stoodkev]

Yup! Thanks for that! I'm not big on promoting Keychain since it usually goes by word of mouth, but the mobile versions definitely need some kick-start. About 3k users now for almost 30k on the extension.

[detlev]

Let's have a chat on discord or Zoom and we maybe do a few things together.

[unklebonehead]

If you use Android there is Kiwi Browser. It's the only mobile browser that supports extensions. The Kecychain extentions works and I use it everyday on my phone.
Its in the play store.
