Between all the work on Cryptomator, we need to remind ourselves to not forget about our regular updates post. While most of you have already noticed that we’re approaching a new major release of Cryptomator, I think it is time to inform you where we’re currently standing and what our roadmap looks like. State of our Desktop Application We plan to release 1.5.0 within Q1 2020. In our currently running beta (huge shout-outs to all the helpful test feedback), we have already sorted out several problems and feel confident to deliver outstanding quality.

We would like to take a more regular look at our roadmap to publicly document the past, present, and future developments of Cryptomator. Unlike before, we’re also going to have a look at the roadmaps of our mobile apps. Desktop In the desktop area, we are currently pursuing two different branches: On the one hand we are striving for feature completion of 1.4.x, with 1.4.12 already available as a release candidate.

Hey it’s a new year, so here comes our quarterly annual 🙈 roadmap preview. OpenJDK and OpenJFX Until now we’ve been using Oracle JDK, since this included the GUI library we used for Cryptomator: JavaFX. Beginning with JDK 11, we plan to switch to OpenJDK and OpenJFX. JavaFX will no longer be included in the Oracle JDK anyway and OpenJFX promises shorter release cycles and - as the name suggests - is developed in an open process.

Introducing Dokany (Windows) and FUSE (macOS, Linux) support. Vaults can now be mounted via Dokany and FUSE which is now the preferred way over WebDAV. Expect vastly improved integration into the system.

As you know, we’re providing Cryptomator as a pay-what-you-want software and we want to keep it that way. In the meantime, we’ve grown to a small team working full time on this project. And we all need to pay our bills. Therefore we need your help! If you use Cryptomator in your company or know a company that uses open-source software, please ask if they want to become an official sponsor of Cryptomator. Alternatively, you can support Cryptomator through recurring donations.

Since it is understandable that not all of our users can track all development activities on GitHub, I would like to write a few paragraphs here about the technical updates that are planned for Cryptomator in 2018 and their impact on usage. FUSE The biggest upcoming change is the implementation of FUSE-based drives. This will be additional to WebDAV and will become the new default setting. We are currently developing the necessary library.

Another day, another data breach. Two weeks ago, the headline news in Australia was that some 50,000 workers had their personal records exposed. And just as every summer now inevitably becomes the hottest on record, every data breach is always the largest in history. This is certainly the case here – such a scale of data loss is unprecedented in Australia, if not elsewhere. The breach is also typical in another way: it was caused by human error.

Cryptomator 1.2.3 for Windows fixes a mysterious bug, commonly known as system error 53 or 67. Well, it’s not that mysterious anymore, but this particular error had been haunting us from the beginning! Cycor on GitHub (almost casually) pointed out in GitHub Issue 210 that he found the cause of system error 53/67 after a few months of experiencing the issue himself. Apparently, there is a Windows Registry entry responsible for listing available network providers called ProviderOrder.

We’ve finally released the first beta version of Cryptomator for Android after almost 6 months of development. It’s a completely new and native app. In this process, we outsourced the cryptographic code from our main project, which is now available as CryptoLib. You’re welcome to test the beta version. Follow this link for more information. Version 0.1 is by far not feature-complete and has known issues, but we’re of course open for feature requests, suggestions, and obviously bug reports.

Cryptomator 1.2.0 for Windows, Mac, and Linux is out now! New Features On Windows and Mac you can now optionally save your password. This is a preparation for auto-unlock (GitHub Issue 40), one of the most wanted features we’re planning for the next minor release. Linux support will follow, as soon as we figured out a standard way to protect saved credentials across most distributions. New migration screen preventing accidental migration.

Cryptomator 1.1.4 for Windows, OS X, and Linux fixes two (related) vulnerabilities allowing malicious Flash files being injected into vaults, that can be executed to “bypass” the SOP and access files from a Flash-enabled browser (GitHub Issues 318 & 319). Kudos to Lukas Reschke for reporting them! Various bugs with Dropbox, Google Drive, Windows drive letters, the Windows Registry and WebDAV access on Linux were also fixed. A complete list of closed issues is available here.

Cyptomator for iOS has finally been approved by the French administration. You can download it now in the French App Store. We’d like to share our experience on how to receive export compliance for the French iOS App Store. Just to be clear, you also need the U.S. Encryption Registration (ERN) approval from the U.S. Bureau of Industry (BIS). But this has already been covered by many sites, just google for export compliance ern ios app store.

Cryptomator 1.1 for Windows, OS X, and Linux is out now! We’ve added a password strength indicator and sync conflicts are now being detected. What’s New: Password Strength Indicator: Based on Dropbox’s zxcvbn. Kudos to Jean-Noël Charon (jncharon on GitHub) for implementing this feature. Sync Conflict Resolution: When editing a file on multiple devices simultaneously, version conflicts are inevitable. Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. can detect these conflicts and will provide all versions of the affected file.
