v2.7 is now live on Android and iOS, bringing big improvements to the in-app browser experience! Let's dive into what is new in our latest version and how it improves your daily use of Hive Keychain.
The browser’s main navigation bar now automatically hides as you scroll down, giving you more screen space and a cleaner view. We've also added gesture support for the go back, go forward, and reload functions. You can now simply swipe from the left to go back, swipe from the right to go forward, or pull down to reload the page. You'll notice a helpful pop-up tutorial showing you how to use all the new browser gestures effectively.
We hope this enables a faster and more natural navigation experience on our mobile apps. Feel free to comment on any feedback that can help us make your experience even better.
Improved Browsing Interface
The URL bar is now more responsive and better integrated into the app flow, allowing smoother access and input. You can also tap the browser icon to seamlessly switch between the in-app browser and the main wallet page, giving you faster control and access. This comes along with a better memory handle that unlocks a smoother performance and less lag when switching views or tabs.
Enhanced Favorites & History Management
Last but not least, managing your favorite sites just got easier thanks to the community request (your request). You can reorganize your Favorites sites at your convenience with a long press and drag on any of them. You can also swipe left on any favorite or history entry to delete it.
Give it a try and post a screenshot of your Favorites page in the comments below.
Dynamic Hive Engine RPC, Hive-URI support and bug fixes
The Hive Engine RPC handling is now dynamic. Keychain will automatically switch to a better-performing RPC if you enable dynamic RPC switch and encounter performance issues. This feature is on by default for all new users, and enabled for existing users still using the default RPC.
Our apps now fully support Hive-URI, ensuring seamless interaction with dApps and services using this standard. dApps can now pass a callback link along with the request, so that Keychain will redirect the user to the App after performing an operation.
We've also fixed some bugs. One of them was to make sure that the active account is always selected by default when scanning a QR Code (except if it's missing the necessary key).
