v3.10 is now live on Chromium, coming with new features we hope you will enjoy! It should be live soon on Firefox, but it will depend on Firefox's review.

Keyless Mode

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you need to log into a borrowed device? Maybe you’re on vacation, surrounded by unfamiliar surroundings, with only your phone available to you, and no personal devices in sight. It can be quite a challenge to navigate this scenario without compromising the security of your keys or personal information. That is why we want to tell you about Keyless Mode.

Keyless mode can be set up at the beginning of installing the Hive Keychain extension. You will only need to have Keychain set up in your phone and install the Keychain extension on the device you want to use. Instead of importing or entering your keys, you can simply activate the Keyless mode and start signing in to your favorite dApps. To use your Hive account with any dApp, you will only need to scan the QR code displayed by the extension using the Hive Keychain app. This will use HiveAuth to request transactions and sign them with your mobile device.

This is the safest way to use any device while traveling, and we hope it helps you as much as we believe it will.

New Confirmation Page

Until now, confirming a transaction only required you to check the username. However, since we live in a social ecosystem, we’ve introduced a helpful improvement. Keychain will now display the profile picture of the user you are sending tokens to on the confirmation page. This enhancement makes it easier for you to verify your transaction details before sending.

One more thing

We are currently working on translating Hive Keychain into additional languages. Several community members are actively completing translations for French, German, and Indonesian. We anticipate releasing an updated version of the extension soon with these new languages, and we would appreciate your help in testing it.

    Oh, this keyless mode is great and yes, it's a more secured way to operate on Hive with the Keychain App in an unfamiliar environment without the fear of entering the necessary keys.

    I have always wanted and wished for the faces of users to appear when sending tokens. I once sent a little amount of LEO to a wrong account, but I laughed over it, like a bruise. I'm glad this feature is here, it's cool.

    Oh, it also feels good to read this blog and reply through Peakd with the Keychain App browser, the updated version.

    Thanks to @stoodkev and the team for this new updates and more to come.

    Saw the post on X and came in for a read and test.

                            Wonderful feature. Without a keychain, our HIVE journey would be near-impossible. Hence, quite happy to see the new development!

                            Adding a profile picture on the confirmation page is also quite an awesome move.

                            Fantastic!

                                                      did that, talked to @stoodkev - he did not understand my issue but i solved it now by deleting and adding back extension - in case someone has a similar problem and does not find buttons to get out of theis keyless stuff they can ping me now.

                                                      Guys I love keychain and @stoodkev is perfect - but you did a bit too much recently in terms of updates - the swiping on mobile app is confusing a bit (maybe just me) - focus on your key USPs- you are great folks! Today was really confused first time ever on this.

                                                    Keyless sounds great, will test it out. And avoids security problem of importing keys. People do not realize the importance of the keys when they open a new account or need help with transactions.
