Codebook for macOS 3.6.0 Released - Adds Pwned Passwords API Lookup

Codebook Updates
1

This version of Codebook for macOS (3.6.0) adds a feature called Password Review that when enabled automatically checks the password you’re editing against the Pwned Passwords API, a new resource of over half a billion passwords hacked from various online services. We’ve got an article here describing how the feature works along with a demonstration video.

Changes in this version:

  • Adds the new Password Review feature (preference disabled by default)
  • Adopts a new custom display for the autocomplete suggestions shown while editing fields
  • Fixes the early dismissal of the autocomplete suggestions by word boundaries (e.g. “https://“)
  • Improves layout and appearance consistency of Password Warnings and Secret Agent Action suggestions
  • Fixes a regression where clicking the Dock icon did not show the Main Window
  • Fixes the account name label displayed under the Sync menu after Google Drive authorization
  • The icon selector has been updated to fix errant highlights when using the scroll wheel
  • The icon selector now loads a heckuva lot faster and has a new layout
  • Fixes crash possible when arrowing down the Views list to Categories

Hi, Zetetic,
I just read the update for codebook 3.6.5 and I have installed 3.6.4 on my iphone.

(1) I cant find the update procedure anymore, but I think there is somewhere a detailed process description, where ?

I am right, that the download goes to my iMac all the time followed by a synch of the don’tiPhone 6 with the iPhone ?

(2) I don’t remember if I have updated my data with you, we moved from my former address , or you don’t need that at all.

Hey @franzmeier

(1) I cant find the update procedure anymore, but I think there is somewhere a detailed process description, where ?

There should be a link right in the discussion post for the update which you can click to open the App Store on your device and click the “update” button. Here’s the link: Visit this link on your iOS device to download the Codebook update from the iTunes App Store.

(2) I don’t remember if I have updated my data with you, we moved from my former address , or you don’t need that at all.

I’ve updated our records (associated with your purchase of Codebook for macOS) to the new location/phone number/email address.

Please let us know if you’re able to get the Codebook for iOS 3.6.5 update alright, and if there’s anything else we can do to assist. Thanks!

Cheers,
Micah
