Auth without PIN setting #40

Closed haustraliaer closed 9 years ago

haustraliaer commented 10 years ago

For people who are not worried about this specific security layer and want the convenience - we should allow them to open the wallet on a given device without a PIN once the passphrase has been entered.

I think this should be a localStorage reference per device, rather than setting it for all devices the way we set the PIN.

I think the wallet does currently let me set an empty pin, but it seems more like an accident than a feature ;)

@jsuder pin validation is absent indeed. created an issue: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/issues/45

Yep I've been using that for convenience in development - but this proposal is to let the user do away with the auth screens entirely, if they so choose to.

weilu commented 10 years ago

Implementation so far should be sufficient for disabling pin in dev environment. Reads: not user friendly - currently 1) upon successful pin disable, wallet reloads. 2) after disabling pin, one is still presented with the pin screen and they need to click on the "Open wallet" button to get int.

Will polish the UI when this feature is scheduled to release for realz

Closing for now, likely won't be something we address in this version of Hive.
