The following usability changes have been made for 0.1.8-beta:

  • Introduced capability to add custom coins to your wallet through either a simple form or QR code, preparing Verus Mobile for PBaaS and extending Verus Mobile coin support to all Komodo asset chains (with electrum servers)
  • Added new "Wallet Settings" menu, where users are able to choose the default number of transactions their wallet displays
  • Updated KMD logo
  • Fixed KMD interest sending error (We still recommend using the desktop wallet to claim your funds)
  • Added mechanism to check app version and apply updates to in-app data structures on version update
  • Changed currency switcher in receive screen to be more intuitive by displaying the currency you are currently entering instead of the one to switch to
  • Refactored coin receive (invoice creation) screen, and added the option to save QR codes to the camera roll.

Privacy and Permissions

No personal data is stored or collected by the Verus Mobile application, except as necessary for authentication. All authentication data is stored locally.

The Verus Mobile application uses the following permissions for the following reasons:
Internet connectivity:
To fetch and post data and communicate with the blockchain through Electrum servers, the app requires internet connectivity. The signing of transactions is done locally and private keys are not shared over any network.

Access to system alerts:
To notify the user of important ongoing events while using the Verus Mobile application, the Verus Mobile application uses the system alert framework on both iOS and Android.

Camera and Audio access:
The Verus Mobile application's VerusPay QR code scanner is designed to read and parse VerusQR codes, or VerusPay invoices through the camera, and requires camera access to work properly. The user will be prompted to allow camera access upon first opening the VerusPay feature. Due to the current constraints of the library being used for VerusPay, the user will be asked to enable audio by default when starting VerusPay for the first time. Choosing to disable audio should in no way affect VerusPay's functionality.

Permission to vibrate the mobile device:
The Verus Mobile application uses the vibration feature of the mobile device it is running on for VerusPay, in order to give feedback upon the scan of a QR code invoice.

Permission to read/write to phone memory:
The Verus Mobile application uses the mobile devices AsyncStorage memory storage to hold encrypted account data while the application isn't running.
