Oddbean new post about login | logout Are we talking nip46 server in Damus/Amethyst/Primal? Or them being nip46 clients?
The terminology is a bit confusing. I mean mobile apps acting as signers. A nostr website could show a QR code for logging in with your mobile app, you scan it with Amethyst/Damus/Primal and you are logged in. No need to install another app like Amber but have this functionality on mobile clients. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but `nostrconnect` URLs enable this flow, no?
Terminology is confusing, your ask is nip46 server in Damus/Amethyst/Primal, nostrconnect as QR scanned by the mobile app-signer should work, I think.
+1, would be great UX imo. I haven't seen support for nostrconnect URL QRs in clients that support NIP-46 login tho.
Well I guess mostly that's bcs there are no mobile apps with access to camera that could scan the QR, nsec.app could do that theoretically, but I haven't seen any demand yet
well, OP in this thread is demanding it 😁
Not to hijack the conversation, but I would like to see more mobile wallets be nip-46 clients. Or do some already support it? I like trying new clients and it now seems standard on web clients, but mobile clients always want your private key (except for maybe amethyst?)
Mobile nostr apps don't want to be nip46 clients, mainly for performance reasons.
That sure makes sense. Probably an issue for low connectivity as well. I guess NIP-7 is probably the preferred path for mobile
No, native mobile apps can't use nip07. Web apps (mobile or not) could use nip07 extensions, but could also use remote signing nip46 (nsec.app etc).
Wow I hadn’t realized nip-07 was specific to web browsers. I made a bad assumption since there were apps like nostore that you install straight on iOS. So we don’t really have any way to handle mobile native event signing across apps on a device? Is that just because it would require a specific spec for each platform?
There is Amber on android and a similar thing for apple named Keystache, not much support of those though
