Hello everyone,

Following the previous Phase 9 — Advanced Operations Update, I am incredibly excited to share the final milestone for Steem Keychain Mobile.

Phase 10 & Phase 11 — The Final Release Polish — The core development roadmap is now 100% complete! The app is fully equipped with advanced settings, RPC node management, security controls, and quality-of-life features to serve as your daily driver for the Steem blockchain.

What's New in Phase 10 & 11

Trusted Operations ("Don't Ask Again")

We've introduced the highly requested "Don't Ask Again" feature. You can now whitelist specific operations (like upvoting or broadcasting custom JSONs) for your favorite dApps. Once trusted, you won't be interrupted by confirmation popups anymore. You can easily view, manage, and revoke these trusted operations directly from the new Settings menu.


RPC Node Selection

Having connection issues? You can now manually switch your RPC node to ensure you always have the fastest, most reliable connection to the Steem blockchain. The network settings menu allows you to toggle between available nodes instantly.


Advanced Security Controls

Security is paramount. We have completely polished the security settings in the app. You can now configure Auto-Lock timers to automatically lock your wallet after a set period of inactivity, and toggle Biometric authentication (Fingerprint/FaceID) to make logging back in both secure and seamless.


Data & Cache Management

Full support for clearing app data and cache has been implemented. This ensures that the app remains lightweight and runs smoothly over time, giving you full control over the data stored on your device.


Why This Matters

With these final phases, Steem Keychain Mobile transitions from a development build into a polished, production-ready application.

For dApp developers: Your users can now enjoy frictionless experiences on your dApps by trusting your operations. No more popup fatigue when playing blockchain games or interacting heavily with social features.

For users: You finally have complete control over your app experience. From security timeouts to network connections, everything is customizable to fit your exact needs.


What's Next? (Google Play & Open Source)

Now that the roadmap is complete, my immediate next steps are focused on distribution and community growth:

  1. Google Play Store Launch: I am currently preparing the app for submission to the Google Play Store. Soon, you will be able to search for Steem Keychain Mobile and install it directly from the official store.
  2. Going Open Source: As promised, this project is built for the Steem community. In the future, I plan to clean up the codebase and make the entire repository open-source. Any developer will eventually be able to audit the code, contribute features, or fork it.

DOWNLOAD APK

Beta APK — your phone may show a security warning when installing from outside the Play Store. This is normal.
