Release notes for Enpass Linux

Version 5.5.2

Release Date: March 22, 2017

What’s New:

  • The attachment support: Yes, you got it right, from now on, you can attach files to Enpass. So let it be anything, the snap of your Credit Card, Passport, key files etc., that should not be stored unencrypted to your device can find a secure place inside Enpass keychain.
  • Option to disable updates & analytics: We have added an option under Advanced Preferences to restrict Enpass to connect to the Internet for checking of updates, sending analytics and crash reports. Though we recommend you to not disable the option to check for updates and notification as this is the only way we can convey any important message to you. You still remember, Enpass manages your passwords offline without forcing you to create an account with us and we love serving you anonymously.

Fixes:

  • CSV/DSV Import: A very rare but critical bug that may lead to undefined behavior for any user action on any specific field of item imported using generic CSV/DSV importer. Fixed.
  • There was an issue with File chooser dialog which when invoked over Preferences window, and then user let the Enpass auto locks. Unlocking will the let the Enpass user interface in unstable state. Fixed and checked.
  • Fixed an issue where EnpassHelper gets crashed while unlocking browser extension with quick unlock PIN.
  • Fixed an issue when syncing with Google Drive used to stop due to the creation of multiple database files in Drive. Now sync will continue to function with the latest Enpass database. Expect more improvements to come in future builds.
  • An issue where enabling sync with WebDAV/ownCloud was stuck at connecting has been fixed.
  • Autosave dialog of Enpass helper used to behaving aberrantly by fluctuating once from localized to English language. Fixed.
  • Fixed an issue while importing TOTP fields from 1Password.
  • Other minor fixes.

Version 5.4.1

Release Date: January 04, 2017

Fixes:

  • Minor bug fixed.

Version 5.4

Release Date: December 21, 2016

What’s New:

  • Quick PIN support: Set an alphanumeric PIN to quickly unlock Enpass if the App is already running in the background, otherwise, master password will be required.
  • Autobackups: Now Enpass can take backup of your data automatically locally on your device. By default, this feature would be enabled.
  • CSV/DSV Import: If you’re having your passwords and login details in CSV or any other delimiter separated file, you can now import them in Enpass using the all new custom CSV/DSV data importer.
  • zxcvbn will show the strength of your passwords: We have empowered the password strength indicator with Dropbox zxcvbn to check you from choosing weak passwords. It will work only on those linux systems having 4.9 and later versions of libstdc++6.
  • Selective field sharing: Sharing has gone better with an option to choose the fields to be shared rather than the whole item. So now you can share your bank details with anyone by removing login and other sensitive details. Cool, huh!
  • Subset of password: It lets you see certain characters in password specified by position, for example, “1st, 3rd, next-to-last, last” by just mentioning their position in a specified format.
  • A better way to organize items: You can now create sub-folders by right clicking on parent folder in sidebar with an additional feature to move subfolders among parent folders by ‘drag n drop’. We have also improved the drag ’n’ drop behavior for moving items between categories and folders where now you also get the option of copying them (instead of moving only) by pressing and holding the ‘option’ key.

Improvements:

  • Setting up a shortcut for autofilling: We have changed the way you used to setup the shortcut key for autofilling in browsers. Now instead of defining it in main Enpass App, you have to configure it in your browser extensions independently.

Fixes:

  • Syncing with WebDAV: Enpass will now show a security warning message (while syncing) to those users who have configured their WebDAV/ownCloud server using a self-signed certificate, and they have to disconnect and set up sync again.
  • Error -120: Fixed an issue where Enpass shows error -120 while syncing esp. when the system wakes from sleep.
  • System Tray icon issue: In some distros, the issue where Enpass system tray icon was not displayed on autostartup has been fixed.
  • Launching of default browser: In some distros, the issue where clicking on URL was not opening the system’s default browser has been fixed.
  • Fixes an issue of high CPU usage while syncing with WebDAV.
  • Other fixes.
