Desktop Update
- Unified support for synching a single desktop database with multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Android and BlackBerry). This is done using an email ID for your username instead of the device name. This way you sync all devices to the same desktop user identified by the email address.
- Redesigned and upgraded user interface, including new button style with labels, familiar top toolbar that is highly customizable, snazzy new detail pane, bigger edit dialog with simplified buttons
- Minimize to System Tray option - found in Options > Security.
- Reminder feature for individual records. To use it, double click a record to edit, then click the Reminder button. Choose the date in the future you want to be reminded to update the record. Save. You'll get the reminder when you launch on that day. Great for passwords that you need to change regularly or credit cards expiration dates.
- Pattern login. If you are a fan of this feature on the iPhone application, you can now use the same method to login to the desktop.
- All Types listing now appears in the Type panel. Check this updated Panel View out if you are a steadfast fan of the list view.
- Hover then click to copy field data in the Detail Pane
- List View: Right click column heading to customize Show Columns
- Edit Types button under Types panel
- Sound at unlock: *Click!*
- Send feedback option in Help menu of SplashID Desktop
- Auto-email-backup system. Go to Prefs > Data/Backup to try it out.
- Browser plugin (Internet Explorer & Safari) now supports Other Record Types. So you can find and copy credit card numbers on the fly when using the browser.
- Tip of the day on launch
- Enhanced search: searches inside of record data strings, not just "starts with"
- Enhanced send VID tool, fewer steps, more intuitive, no need for email client
iPhone Update
- Support for unified desktop sync. To restate from above: This is done using an email ID for your username instead of the device name. This way you sync all devices to the same desktop user identified by the email address.
- Upgraded user interface with reflective card views.
- Auto-sync. Turn this feature on in Tools.
- Changed touch to copy functionality. When you tap a field, it brings up COPY as a menu option, instead of copying it automatically. Make it 2 steps, but prevents accidental copying of sensitive data
- You can now pick the icon from the record info dialog, without having to go into the edit dialog
- New View. Search View: just has a search bar, add button, and View All button on top left. Loads faster. Just search and display results. Select in Tools > Select view
- Dedupe tool. It's handy on the desktop, it's handy on the iPhone
- Send Feedback Option in Tools
- Option to clear filters on exit - on by default
- Option to load sample data on fresh install or not

SplashID 5.0 for iPhone, Mac & Windows - July 6, 2009

New Desktop Features:

Security Enhancements:
- AES. This US government approved encryption standard has been added on top of the already powerful Blowfish algorithm.
- Password Hint Question. Password hints can be a little too easy sometimes, so first you'll have to answer one of the security questions of your choosing before the hint is revealed.
- Password Strength Indicator. Added to the Set Password dialog and the Password Generator. Don't feel bad if you like short passwords. We all do.
- Clear Clipboard on Exit. This default option is found in the Options dialog. It plainly makes sense.
Browser Plug-In. SplashID in your browser! A search box and Web Login picker is added to Safari/Internet Explorer if you install it. This replicates the web autofill functionality from the SplashID desktop, but as an installed plugin for Internet Explorer (Windows) and Safari (Mac). Sorry, but Firefox and other browsers will not be supported at this time. To install the plugin, go to File > Plugin for Safari/Internet Explorer > Install.
Install to Removable Device. Now you can take SplashID on a thumb drive (or whatever) anywhere you go. Copies the application and database files to <Removable Disk>/SplashID folder.
Add Attachments. A new field has been added to the database so you can add a file (up to 1mb) to the record for association and safe keeping.
Add Icons. Just click Add Icons in the Icon Picker, so your record and type icons can be whatever you like. You will also notice we updated some of the old rickety icons.
Smart Types. In the lower left of the Detail View, you will find 3 Smart Types containing the latest 10: Most Viewed, Recently Modified, and Recently Viewed. These help you get to your most popular records faster.
Scrollable Detail Pane. If your Notes are longer than the provided space in the Detail Pane, you will have a scroll bar so you can view the full notes without having to open the Edit dialog.
Resizable Edit Dialog. You can now vertically resize the Edit Dialog so you can get more out of that notes field.
Better Keyboard Support. You can tab between windows and UI elements better now to avoid that annoying mouse click.
Enhanced Database Sync Logic. When using the database sync feature introduced in version 4, you should no longer have lost or duplicated records.
Drag and Drop Records into Types. Need to change the type assignment for a record? Select it, then click it, the drag it into the destination type (Panel View).
DeDupe Tool. Scans the database for records containing the same data and offers to delete them. Found in the File menu.
Event Viewer. Logs your activity in SplashID so we can provide you with the Smart Types. This may also be useful in technical support scenarios. Found in the View menu. The log file only contains record names - none of the other fields. You can file this file:
- Mac OS: ~/Documents/SplashID/SplashIDLogFile.plist
- Windows: C:\Users\<user>\Documents\SplashData\SplashID\Preferences\EventsLog.xml
Better Print support. For record list, text is wrapped, and there is an option to print notes. For individual records, nice new layout.
Minimize to System Tray. On Windows, you have the option of minimizing to the System Tray (bottom right) instead of the Task Bar. To enable this, go to Options > Minimize Options.
Sequential Backup System. Auto backup now saves multiple backup files so you don't lose your data if you have a database meltdown, then quit SplashID and overwrite the backup file on exit (as in previous versions). Now backups have sequential filenames, Backup 0, Backup 1, Backup 2, Backup 3, etc. When Backup 9 is reached, the next save replaces Backup 0, so you don't spiral into infinitely diminishing hard disk space.

New iPhone Features

Compatibility with SplashID 5 Desktop. Sync with all the cool features from the new desktop application above.
Manual IP Address Synchronization. Finally, you can enter your desktop IP address if you can't discover it automatically for some reason.
Custom Icons. Take a photo or choose an existing one to make a custom icon for a record or type.
File Attachments. Take a photo or attach an existing one to a record for future reference. You can add any type of file on the desktop and if the iPhone can view it, you can view it in the SplashID record.
User Interface Overhaul. Too many improvements here to list, but you'll see. You can also choose between different "Views" and "Themes" so you can really customize your SplashID experience.
Most Viewed Perspective. A new tab shows you the records that you view more often for quick access.
