We have made some improvements on Hivesigner and more to come. Here is short list of changes, thank you for peakd, 3speak and number of people who are actively suggesting improvements and reporting issues.
What's new
- Added Transfer from savings operation
- Added Change recovery account operation
- Added Update account2 operation
- Replaced keychain with keystore that confused many thinking it is Hive Keychain password which it wasn't
- Authority signing fix, you can see what permission each operation need before you login to submit that transaction
- Wording improvements on Authorizing and Revoke screen, thanks to @starkerz for his detailed feedback
- Initial version of extension already available on Chrome Store
- We are preparing new update to Chrome Store with some fixes
- Desktop app is discontinued, usage stats shows that it wasn't used by many. And I think, we can focus our efforts improving web, extension and start mobile application.

it can also be faster when operating like steemconnect
Are you experiencing any slowness?
Yes on my phone compare to steemconnect
Its just as fast as steemconnect.
Oh. Then maybe it is what I used
Nice updates. I am waiting for hivesigner extension 😀
Thanks, extension is already available, please download from homepage https://hivesigner.com. We will publish some updates in coming days
Thanks

It's done. I support the proposal.
Ok... having @good-karma at this really makes things different I can tell already.
Voting up the proposal.. Sorry for being late on this.
Sweet updates!
When I came here, I was happy to see we have a secure way to login.
Didn't know it was only getting better.
Glad to see your contribution (and grateful to access it).
Nice work. I'm glad to see more features incoming. Especially changing recovery account is an interesting feature that I see from this update. 😀
Yes, many of the accounts has
steemas their recovery account. Now we moved away from Steem, good idea to update it to some other account you trust. In case account gets hacked, you could ask for help from recovery account.Yes true. On Steem we had a handy option to update it from steemworld website. For Hive there is no straight forward option yet I guess. Now introducing it in hivesigner is great. I'm going to be making a post about this. Thanks. 😀
Yes, a lot we can do to make hivesigner powerful, that's why we created proposal to support our development to deliver those features quicker
Can I already see the below options on hivesigner.com website?
Added Transfer from savings operation
Added Change recovery account operation
Added Update account2 operation
Or this is just a backend thing that works when a request is sent from other Apps.
Simple question: How do I change my recovery account?
Yes, already possible. Here is an example to change recovery account to
esteemapp.https://hivesigner.com/sign/change_recovery_account?new_recovery_account=esteemapp
We will work on page where you could easily see and generate/perform new operations.
Yes, thanks. That will be great. UI gives the best user experience. 😀
I prefer hivesigner than the other, it's more user friendly and fast. Operation is like steemconnect.
What is the keystore password? My girlfriend is trying to log into peakd.com with hivesigner on iOS and she is being asked for her 'keystore password', which I'm not familiar with.
Keystore is just like pin code which encrypts user keys on browser and in future only keystore/pin is asked for signing transaction. This is only required if you enable checkbox to save account on device.
Do you know what she can do if she already went through and ticked that box but now doesn't remember the keystore password? She has the private keys to her account still obviously.
She can try to clear browser cache, because keys are stored on browser encrypted with keystore/pin code. It should resolve the issue. For example, you can click on Cookies and remove relevant fields and reload page like on this image.
@good-karma is steemconnect dead after hivesigner updates?
We will eventually sunset it, I think.
Steemconnect already not working on steempeak, dlease, actifit😀
should we consider an end?
What error do you get if any?
Haw is working ?
