📦 XG8 Password Keeper — Release Notes (v0.7.2)

A massive upgrade to daily autofill usability and credential lifecycles is rolling out on Google Play.

What’s New & Fixed:
🔹 Locked-Vault Capture: The Android Autofill service now bridges locked-vault state via a transient, process-isolated memory cache (180s TTL, auto-wipe). Submit credentials anywhere $\rightarrow$ biometric prompt fires $\rightarrow$ encrypted and committed on the fly.
🔹 Intelligent Labeling: Native Android apps resolve clean human display names via PackageManager (e.g., Marktplaats, Spotify) instead of reverse-DNS package strings, while preserving package IDs for auto-matching.
🔹 Immediate Card Review: Successfully saved entries route directly to the record’s detail card for instant verification and editing.
🔹 Autofill Picker Contract: Fixed the result-intent handoff from keyboard suggestions (Gboard / "Search XG8") so selecting a vault record populates target inputs directly.
🔹 Frictionless Onboarding: 6-digit email OTP verification with uniform input rendering.
🛡️ Zero-Knowledge Invariant: PBKDF2 (600k rounds) + HKDF-Expand key segregation remains strictly enforced on-device.

This is not just any password keeper: it's the future.

0.7.4 is out for a few days now.
Running stable.

There sneaked a bug into the Autofill and Passwords storing upon entering them. They have been fixed.

The app now also has a lifetime buy option.

We remain competitive, we dont overprice.

Next step, #Solana ?

Let us know.

[XG8 @XG8_app]

Bit by bit, fully rebranding from X-Gate to XG8.

X username adjusted.
New domains bought and setting up.

And also looking into options to eventually get the app working on @solana and @solanamobile

[XG8 @XG8_app]

We do not own your passwords and data.
.

XG8 Keeper v0.7.0 is officially live on Google Play.

Our most critical cryptographic milestone yet delivers full Zero-Knowledge Architecture:

- True Zero-Knowledge: Passwords, usernames, URLs, and private notes (including seed phrases) are encrypted entirely on-device before syncing.
- Hardened HKDF + AES-256-GCM: Authenticated cryptographic envelopes (enc:v1:) for all stored metadata.

- Streamlined UI: Updated "XG8 Keeper" header, uncluttered top navigation, and improved biometric unlock stability.

- Zero-Friction Upgrade: Existing vaults migrate automatically in the background on launch—no manual export, import, or key reset required.

XG8 Password Keeper is going through another big update soon.
Multiple audits have been done and multiple AI Agents have been used to audit, attack it, breach it and share results.
Those results are now being implemented.

Proud moment!

[XG8 @XG8_app]

XG8 Password Keeper received very useful documented test reviews.
It seems that most / all testers found the App good to very good.

Therefor preparing v0.6.0 to launch after the testing period is done.

Some important implementations & fixed.

#Security #Password #Android

[XG8 @XG8_app]

Why are modern password managers so slow?

Most big players package a web-app inside an Electron or WebView wrapper.
The result? 150MB+ downloads, memory bloat, and battery drain just to fetch a single credential.

Speed IS a security feature.

When you need an autofill prompt or TOTP code, it should happen instantly.
That’s why XG8 is built natively in Kotlin:
⚡ Direct Argon2id hardware computation
⚡ Sub-second biometric unlock
⚡ Zero web-wrapper bloat
⚡ Instant local cache

Doing the hard engineering instead of taking the lazy web shortcut.

Launching soon on Android

[XG8 @XG8_app]

That’s why we skipped SMS entirely when building XG8 Password Keeper.

We integrated a native, zero-knowledge QR scanner directly into the local vault: autofilling your credentials and computing your 2FA TOTP codes in a single tap on Android.

We're in the final days of closed testing before hitting the Play Store. Drop a follow for the official launch drop

[XG8 @XG8_app]

If you're still using SMS codes for two-factor authentication in 2026, your entire digital life is literally one phone call away from being drained.

SIM-swapping is still thriving.

Here is why SMS 2FA is an illusion of security—and what to switch to instead

[XG8 @XG8_app]

So why doesn't everyone switch? Friction.

Juggling three different apps, copying codes manually, and managing standalone authenticators creates user fatigue.

Security only works when the safe workflow is just as fast as the unsafe one.

[XG8 @XG8_app]

XG8 Password Keeper is entering day 6 of closed testing on Google Play.
Many updates have been implemented.
Few more days to go!
