The Numio app was launched at the very start of Q1 2021 and has since clocked up over 10,000 downloads. We release updates to the app on a near weekly basis, we’ve added some fantastic features to the app (as well as many smaller ones), and have many more lined up. All in all it has been a fantastic start to the year.
Here is a quick look back at some of the biggest updates to date, and a peek at what will be dropping in the near future.
What We've Added in Q1
Your Choice of Backup
We made the assisted backup an optional service, and added a manual backup option that gives you more control.
We know some people were put off using the app by the assisted backup (cloud backup with biometric security). Not everyone wants a Google account and not everyone wants to use biometrics, and why should they?
So we now have an unassisted backup option for those who want a bit more control – just create an account with information of your choice, manually store your Recovery Key, and away you go.
We will continue to offer assisted backup as an option for people who want the option of an easy setup with NIST Grade Biometric Security. We will also be adding more cloud options, such as ProtonDrive.
We will shortly be publishing an on-boarding ‘How To’.
