eWallet 8.5 Update featuring AutoFill and Dark Mode now in iOS App Store

April 30, 2020 by Ken

eWallet® 8.5 for iOS* (iPad, iPhone and iPod touch) is now in the App Store. The update significantly enhances AutoFill and adds support for Dark Mode in iOS 13.

AutoFill

eWallet’s AutoPass feature has long allowed users to click on a URL in their wallet and have the username and password filled in on the website, all displayed directly within eWallet. In eWallet 8.4, AutoPass was enhanced to also work with the AutoFill feature that was introduced with iOS 12. Now this new update takes auto-filling of usernames and passwords even further, adding QuickType bar support, improved domain matching, and search. Tap in a username or password field in Safari or any other app, any you’ll be presented with credentials right above the keyboard; tap the credentials and voilà! We’ve got full instructions in our support area if you would like more detailed information.

Dark Mode

The release of iOS 13 brought Dark Mode to iPhones and iPads, where “the system uses a darker color palette for all screens, views, menus, and controls, and it uses more vibrancy to make foreground content stand out against the darker backgrounds.” As we did with Dark Mode in eWallet for macOS , we went through every panel in eWallet for iOS and made the appropriate adjustments, so they look great in both Light and Dark appearances.

As usual, we had a hard-working group of beta testers for the 8.5 release; we made significant changes during this beta as a direct result of feedback from the group. If you have interest in participating in a future beta, or have any questions or comments about the release, please contact us!

eWallet 8.5 for iOS runs on iOS 8 and up, including iOS 13 and iPadOS 13. eWallet is optimized for iPad Air and iPad Pro, iPhone 5, 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, SE, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, iPhone X, iPhone XR, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. The latest version is available via the on-device App Store. Get all the info about eWallet for iOS here on our site.

Organize your information!

April 7, 2020 by Lee

While some of us continue to work remotely, some of you are enjoying an extended, albeit involuntary, “stay-cation”. Now that you’ve rearranged the garage, organized all of the cupboards and closets, and done an amazing spring cleaning, what’s left to do?

Organize your important information!

Have you been meaning to update that favorite password you use to log into ALL of your websites? By storing your logins in eWallet, you have a single password to open your wallet, but now you can up your security game by having a unique password for each login! (Hint, eWallet can create those passwords for you too.)

Where do you keep track of your credit card information? Do you know the numbers to call if you lose the cards? How about your doctor’s phone number, and your health insurance numbers? Have those on hand? Life insurance? Car insurance?

You can even keep track of your kids’ information and passwords in a category all its own, so you always know the answer to: “What’s my Minecraft password?”

Now is the perfect time to gather up that information, and store it securely. Right where you know to look for it! And if you have an Android or iOS device, you can safely carry that data with you, so you always have it at your fingertips.

If you’d like a jump start on using eWallet, take a look at the brief step-by-step articles in our tutorials.

And, as always, if you get stuck, need more details, or have a question, please contact us!

From all of us at Ilium Software, we hope you, your family, and your friends are safe and healthy.
