#Amethyst v0.92.0: Tor and NFC-hosted transient accounts
This version ships with a Tor service enabled by default to access .onion urls and untrusted relays from the Outbox model. It also offers NFC-hosted transient accounts: accounts that log off as soon as the app goes to the background, deleting all traces of the account from the phone.
Write your ncryptsec to an NFC tag and hide it in your clothing. When you need to use Amethyst, tap the tag, insert your password and login. Lock the screen to delete everything. If you are an activist and if your phone is confiscated, they will never find anything on the phone. Not even your public key. Ncryptsec is a NIP-49-based password-encrypted nsec. If you need, you can destroy and dispose the NFC tag.

Not on GitHub yet?
Now it is
Obtanium still bot getting it.
Looks it doesn't get pre releases
And BTW man citrine is crashing now all the time
Do you see the error if you go to the logs screen after the crash? It would help me if you can get the error
Nah is stuck on this I forced closed and nothing happened, deleted and reinstalled it was ok than I restored and froze again.

FYI, we just fixed a bug where Amethyst was using the Tor connection to find Citrine. But that didn't create this strange screen on Citrine...
Did you change anything in settings or just retored a backup file?
Just edited the picture and name
In fact it's crashing even without restoring the backup
It's here #Amethyst Privacy by Default 👀

“NFC-hosted transient accounts “ great
Tor version is up! But I will keep this in pre-release for now check for bugs. Please use Obtainium to get it (you have to activate pre-releases in their settings.

Bravo! Amazing release, I was testing transient accounts but cannot make it work, first Zeus was popping all the time when tapping, then I tested without Zeus in a fresh amethyst and the ncrypsec appeared but as a collected NFC tag, nothing related with ame. I'm doing something wrong? Tested on graphene
Make sure to make the NFC tag using the URI mode and add nostr: in the beginning.
nostr:ncryptsec1...
Ok I tested but didn't work first time, had to write the record in the NFC tag as a custom uri, and them worked 👍
If you can, explain like I'm a dog:
How do I generate an ncryptsec from my nsec?
Amethyst's left drawer, backup keys. On the bottom part of the screen insert a password and hit export. The ncryptsec1 will be copied to the clipboard. Then add nostr: in front of it to make a URI and put it on the NFC tag.
revolutionary!

Vou comprar um Android só pra usar o Amethyst parece incrível
Maybe this TOr implementation tackles some of the issues @Snowden raised 🤟✨
Huge respect for the work @Vitor Pamplona and his team are doing 💜
