We have some very exciting news for you today, in the form of not just one, but two, new platform releases for eWallet GO!™ That’s right - as of today eWallet GO! is now available for Android, iPhone and iPod touch devices, in addition to Windows Phone 7 and Windows PC.
eWallet GO! is our streamlined, secure information manager that’s really easy to use and gives you a lot of flexibility working with your data. eWallet GO! has the features you need at a price that can’t be beat, including:
256-bit AES encryption
Over 25 ready-to-use card templates
Over 45 card icons to choose from
Robust search function
Auto-lock when left idle
Large type font option
Amazingly easy-to-use
And eWallet GO! makes backing up and restoring a breeze with Google Docs and Dropbox. Just backup to the cloud and you won’t have to worry about losing your data after you enter it. Restoring is a snap too - and not only can you restore a changed file to your phone, but if you also own eWallet GO! for Windows, you can keep your info up-to-date and available no matter where you are.
eWallet GO! is just $4.99 on any of its available platforms. More information, including screenshots and details on how to buy, are available on our site. If you’re a current eWallet 7 customer that wants to switch over to eWallet GO!, you can find out more here.
We just released an update to the Android eWallet Viewer. This version improves the Viewer’s new Search functionality, and fixes a problem that some people experienced with eWallet Viewer’s auto-lock functionality after we added Search.
Although not many folks ran into the issue, we think that you can never have too much security, so please be sure to update to this version.
You can get the latest version by searching for “eWallet Viewer” on the Android Market. You’ll need a phone with Android OS 1.6 or greater for the Viewer to work.
Don’t have eWallet Viewer yet? Find out more on our site - you will need eWallet 7.1 for Windows to sync your wallets to your phone for viewing.
And as always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
This is just a quick post to let everyone know about two eWallet updates we’ve released this week. First up: eWallet for iPhone / iPad / iPod touch was approved by Apple yesterday. The update adds compatibility for iOS 4, so eWallet is now working great on the new OS! Updates for the new retinal display aren’t included yet, but we are working on that as well. eWallet Lite has also been released with iOS 4 compatibility.
And update #2: for all you Android users out there - we’ve released a new version of our eWallet Viewer, which adds search! This upgrade works on Android devices with OS 1.6 and above.
That’s all for this announcement! If you have questions or need help with either upgrade, remember you can always contact us.
Hot on the heels of our iPad eWallet release, I’ve got more exciting news for you today. Our eWallet Viewer is now available in the Android Market.
What exactly is eWallet Viewer, you ask? Great question. eWallet Viewer is the latest feature for our award-winning password manager, available to all eWallet owners who use an Android device. And best of all, it’s free!
If you own eWallet 7, you can use eWallet Viewer to access your wallet files on your Android device. Easily synchronize wallets from the Windows PC version of eWallet to your Android phone, and view them anytime, anywhere! And, of course, eWallet Viewer has the same level of security and encryption you’ve come to expect from eWallet.
Ready to get it? All you have to do is search the Android Market on your phone for “eWallet Viewer”. It couldn’t be simpler, right? And if you don’t own eWallet 7 for Windows yet, you can try it free for 30 days. You’ll be able to sync the wallets you create in the Windows version to your Android device for viewing. When you’re ready to buy, you can get eWallet 7 from our store.
UPDATE: You will need the latest Windows PC version (7.1.0.28501) of eWallet to see the Android device option in Sync Setup. You can download it here.
More details about eWallet Viewer, and some great screenshots of it in action, are right here on our site.
I wanted to post a brief follow-up to the Advisory Board Assignment from a couple days back about Android. First, a GIANT THANK YOU to everyone for all of your insightful and well thought our replies. You really provided some amazing feedback - you guys never cease to amaze me with the great stuff you post. So again, Thank You! And feel free to keep posting if you have more ideas.
To get my current thoughts and some feedback, read on after the jump!
Android: The Operating System
Android is a compelling platform, and it is pretty clear that it definitely has its supporters. It does a lot of things really well, in some cases better than the competition. It also has a lot of potential. Like all devices it has its foibles (512 MB? In this day and age?) but every device has its problems. I’m still not convinced that this device will appeal to the larger consumer base the way iPhone does, but it certainly seems a good fit for more technologically oriented users.
Bottom Line:It’s a very good OS, especially for technologically oriented folks, and might be able to capture the interest of the general public.Android: A Development EnvironmentAs a platform to develop for, it offers a ton of great opportunities. There are some really neat things we could do with this device. On the other hand, the pitfalls of an overly open system that we’ve experienced first hand with mobile devices in the past remain. I am not sure that these dangers are enough to stop us, but I think people underestimate the amount of frustration they’ll feel if, thanks to massive variation between devices, the software doesn’t work the same on every Android and/or won’t work at all on their device. This will likely happen to some extent.Bottom Line:It has some great tools for developers, but the openness of the system could come back to haunt us.Android: Market Penetration I think it’s likely that Android will achieve pretty strong market penetration as time goes on. The reality, however, is that in a year since its release and all the associated hype, this hasn’t happened. No matter the “whys” of it, the fact is that it hasn’t achieved the heavy adoption people expected. This might simply be a matter of “needs more time/better devices” but based on history, it also might be a matter of “Tech people love it but the general public isn’t sold.”Bottom Line:One way or another, I think we’ll end up seeing a respectable number of Android devices - enough penetration that it could support a decent base for an application.Android: As a (Third Party) App PhoneI have no doubts about the Android as an “App Phone” since Google is sure to fully outfit it with incredibly awesome software. What I remain unsure of is whether people really will adopt it as an App Phone for third party applications in the way they have the iPhone today or the Palm/WinMo in the past. This is immensely important to us. As much as we appreciate and need our existing customer base, new customers make up the majority of our annual income. That’s the reality of the business. When we adopt a platform we need it to bring in new customers.Bottom Line:The jury is still out. We know our existing customers are ready and willing to get our products for their new Android phones. We just aren’t sure how many Android folks who don’t already use our apps will go out and buy them. This is true on any platform, but the weak showing of the Android App Store to date makes use leery.The Very Bottom LineWhat does all this mean? It means that I’m feeling stronger about the Android as a good software market. Many of my concerns remain, but based on new information and your feedback, I’m less unsure than I was. If nothing else, I really hate to see all of our long time Windows Mobile users forced to go out and use an inferior product. :)“Blah blah blah - Will there be a version of eWallet for Android, and when will it be out?”Sorry. These are two questions I’m not going to touch. We learned *cough**mac**cough* the dangers of prematurely announcing our plans. And even if we started an Android version tomorrow, it’d be a good 6 months before you’d see it. As most of you know, we’re not hiring teams of underpaid overseas contractors to churn out our stuff - it’s all handcrafted in-house by a handful of the best developers in the biz. The result is top notch quality, but it does take time.So there you go - you’ve definitely swayed me and we’ll be sure to keep you appraised of any new developments! Thanks again for all of your input!
