We completed the performance improvement of Passpack moving the static files on a new server. This improves also the general security because it is now much harder for an attacker to try to inject Javascript code.

Passpack has discontinued Google Gears support. It was used with slow browsers like Internet Explorer 6 or 7. If you use one of these browsers, probably your account will become really slow without Google Gears. We strongly suggest to upgrade to IE 9 or to a totally different browser like Chrome.

To improve the performance, we moved the static files to Nginx that is much faster then Apache. Unfortunately, we discovered that some users can not access non-standard ports, so we have reversed to the previous configuration.

UsePass: Third Party Chrome Extension For Passpack Autologin

Four weeks ago Kenneth Henderick contacted me because he wanted to build a Chrome extension to substitute the Passpack It! button, improving it. I really liked the idea, so we worked together a bit and I added some features to Passpack in order to provide him with what he needed to build UsePass. If you [...]

New themes for Passpack

Are you tired of always seeing the same colors in your Passpack account? Or would you simply like a change? From today you can. We added the possibility to select a theme in ‘Settings > Appearance’. There are only three themes for now, but we can certainly add more as time goes on if you [...]

Why we didn’t respond to your requests

Gmail 3rd Party Login: No More Security Alerts

As one of our third party login options, we allow users to access Passpack with their Gmail login. Until now this was done via IMAP, today that’s changed. Historically, we’ve had to change this feature a number of times. At first, it worked nicely, then Google made some changes. First we discontinued it, opting for [...]

Known Issue Fix: Passpack Desktop

This is a follow-on fix to an issue previously marked as resolved. There is a specific use case in which Passpack Desktop was improperly syncronizing with Passpack.com, causing deletion of some entries. We believed this bug to be fixed with the previous release of Desktop (2.1.3), but apparently the following use case was still not [...]

Passpack Style & Auto-login Updates

Sunday night a slightly restyled Passpack rolled out, along with a new Passpack It! button improvement, and a bunch of other stuff under-the-hood. Restyling Perhaps the most visible of the changes. We’ve been steadily adding features for the past year without any re-designs, so we’re now working to declutter the interface a bit. Let in [...]
