Bluewallet: Add Transaction authorization

Created on 6 Aug 2019  ·  7Comments  ·  Source: BlueWallet/BlueWallet

Add second password for transaction authorization purpose. In case someone (could be a close family member who guessed your password right- wife😁 for example) actually got access to unlock BlueWallet make it difficult to send transaction or view backup phrase by adding second password and also it can be optional

I think that might be a good case to use biometrics. While biometrics
unlock is not secure enough to protect your private key, It might be
sufficient to just prevent random 3rd party from accidentally making a
transaction.

That’s a cool idea am loving bluewallet already

yep, biometrics after a password entering on first start can be used. Both for actions or even to access the app it self.

Assigned to self. Will work on it.

Make it optional, so you would have to manually turn on biometric security
in settings

Yes, I would propose to improve the security settings. At the moment there's a lot of users activating "plausible deniability" by mistake and getting stuck there.

We can make a simple structure like this.

|- Security
|- - Encryption
|- - Biometrics
|- - Plausible deniability

Options should be visible but inactive till encryption gets activated. And at the same time the other options are in separate menus avoiding errors on activating them.

implemented!
