Hi, just wanted to jump in quickly and pass the news.
After so much struggle and many months of back and forward, Apple has finally bent their arm and modified their framework on our request to enable us to talk to Spark1 chips.
iOS 14 is now compatible with both Spark1 and Spark2 chips.
We still need to squeeze some bugs since the whole system was specifically designed to work for Android only.
Look forward to VivoKey on iOS this fall.
Ryuuzaki.
Nice! I have android myself but unfortunately it doesnt have nfc.
Hopefully this means that weāre one step closer to being able to set up an apex (when it comes out) with my familyās iphones!
I will be posting more updates as I make them, I was working a lot on the back end making sure everything works the same as the Android counterpart. I have most of it ready.
Spark 1 is working as well.
How do you use your VivoKey without an Android?
I donāt have one but I plan to get an apex in the future
Oh those will be fun whenever they come.
Very excited for this, as Iāve been using iOS for a year or two now and it makes my nfc life harder. Just curious, it will work with Jailbroken devices?
Personally, I rarely use my vivokey because I use my iphone all the time, do we have any idea when the app will be released? Btw ty for your work
Iām not sure. Is there even a jailbreak ready for iOS 14? I donāt see why it shouldnāt but Iāve not tried it since Iām on beta.
We are planning to get it ready by the release of iOS 14. This fall probably. Still need to squeeze some bugs but most of functionality is ready to go for Spark1 and Spark2
There isnāt one available got iOS 14 yet but I imagine itāll come out rather quickly because of how fast after iOS 13 unc0ver and Chimera came out. As long as it doesnāt have built in jailbreak detection that blocks it Iām sure itāll be fine.
Ive used iPhone since 3GS, been trough so many jailbreaks and fakes is not even funny. I just give up on them.
Yeah it doesnāt help thereās been quite a lot of turmoil in the jailbreak community due to one member getting butthurt that he wasnāt getting as much attention as he wanted. So sometimes instead of using an exploit to make the new jailbreak he just sends a report to Apple and it gets patched.
One more update.
This is what I have in mind for the VivoKeys view.
I am guessing most of people will just have 1 or 2 VivoKeys so the selection is at the top.
There are only 3 things you can change, its ānicknameā
'The url" and
One selection of:
āNothing - keep the profile private on scanā
āProfile - present the VivoKey profile page on a browserā
āURL - redirect to a specific linkā
In very very rare cases, (for support) the implant ID is required for trouble shooting. But Iāve added a ShowID button.
You can make multiple changes on different implants and āclear those changesā by Pressing āReloadā button, or send the changes to the server pressing the āUpdateā button.
All this items, locations, label texts, can change, so I will appreciate any feedback from anyone on this view.
What does the date under the image of the chip signify?
Last scan?
Date added perhaps?
this
Oh yeah, is the date added. hmmm but I see the confusion, I didnāt wanted to make it too cramped with a lot of explanation text. But I might add something like āAdded on:ā or something? An icon? What do you think?
Alternatively āShow IDā could be replaced with āmore detailsā and bring up ID and date added to keep it cleaner in the main view? Or a little āiā info circle in the corner of the Vivokey selector?
I canāt imagine why Iād need to know when it was added (except maybe personal curiosity like Iāve had it for so long I canāt even remember it), I like compgeekās idea of the little info circle and keeping everything else out of view.
itās mostly tied to iOS 14 and the beta processā¦ we are up to beta 5ā¦ beta 4 broke nfc all togetherā¦ and the last iOS beta process went up to like 12 or 13 or somethingā¦ so we canāt release until iOS 14 is stable and released, then we make final tweaks, then release VivoKey on iOS.
