Launcher PRO 5.2.0 and Website update

Launcher PRO 5.2.0 Build 108 is now available

Change Log:

- Added support for E-Sys 22.06

- Improved translation mapping speed

- Added Passwordless authentication using USB security key (FIDO2) in app and website

- Added option to send minimal error details

- Minor bug fixes


The list is short, but there's a ton of work put into it. Most of the changes are in the backend. It's a lot easier and more secure to sign in.


Launcher PRO is going Hardware-Locked!

Hardware-locked account that is, because, USB Security Keys are now supported in Launcher PRO and the website. Anyone who uses Yubikeys, SoloKeys, Thetis and the likes know how great these little devices are. With Launcher PRO 5.2, it goes wherever you go, as long as you have your security key with you!  

With security keys, you don't need a password. It's passwordless authentication, yet stronger and more secure than ever. FIDO2/webauthn authentication is now supported. Enroll your Security key and start signing in to Launcher PRO without having to enter your password. FIDO2 is an enterprise-level authentication method that is widely supported by the industry.

    1. There is also no error message, by the way, why this doesn't work in the app, the request comes that you should touch your key and then nothing happens

  4. hello token master

    Any plans to implement offline authentication using FIDO2 technology?
    HMAC-secret is used for offline authentication.

    The environment for using the launcher pro in the car is more offline.

    What do you think?
