Flow Reference Wallet Extension 2.8.6

🚀 Key Highlights

🔒 Better dApp Connectivity & Stability

  • Improved Multi-Wallet Support (#1046): Reworked the provider injection logic to ensure our extension co-exists peacefully with other wallets like MetaMask. The extension now intelligently routes ethereum.request calls, only handling requests intended for Flow Wallet. This prevents conflicts and ensures dApps connect to the correct wallet, providing a seamless user experience even with multiple wallet extensions installed.
  • Improved Privy Integration (#1067): Corrected a race condition that prevented the provider from being initialised properly. Resolved loading issues when dev wallet is installed by isolating the extension's localStorage. We now use environment-specific prefixes for storage keys (frw-dev:, frw-beta:, frw:), which prevents data collisions between different extension builds (e.g., development, beta, production) and ensures Privy initializes correctly every time.

📱 Account Management Redesign

  • Complete overhaul of account listing interface (#974, #1009) with better hierarchy display showing main → EVM → child account relationships
  • New Menu Drawer design with improved navigation and account switching
  • Account menu icon improvements (#977)
  • Redesigned profile selection in account menu (#978)
  • Enhanced account cards with better visual indicators and balance display
  • Improved handling of multi-account scenarios

🔢 Improved Balance Display

  • Token balances now use a common decimal formatting for better readability and to ensure non-zero amounts are never shown as zero (#1045).
    • Balance > 0: Rounded to 2 decimal places, with trailing zeros trimmed.
    • 0.01 <= Balance < 1: Shown with 2 decimal places.
    • 0.001 <= Balance < 0.01: Shown with 3 decimal places.
    • 0.0001 <= Balance < 0.001: Shown with 4 decimal places.
    • 0 < Balance < 0.0001: Shown in a condensed format (e.g., 0.0₄1).
    • Balance = 0: Shown as "0".

🔁 KittyPunch Swap Integration

  • New Swap Provider (#1049): Replaced the existing EVM swap functionality with KittyPunch.

📲 Mobile App Integration

  • New mobile import workflow (#979) with step-by-step visual guidance for users migrating from the Flow Wallet mobile app.
  • Updated import interface with a dedicated mobile app tab and clearer instructions.

🎨 UI/UX Updates

  • UI Fixes (#1058, #1061): Addressed various layout issues, including EVM address display and import links.
  • Updated terminology: "Seed Phrase" → "Recovery Phrase" throughout the app.
  • Improved responsive design and better visual feedback.
  • Enhanced account avatars with support for pending states.

🛠️ Technical Improvements

  • Environment-Specific Storage (#1067): Refactored local storage handling to support environment-specific prefixes, preventing data collisions between development, beta, and production builds.
  • Build & CI/CD Enhancements (#1043, #1050, #1055): Updated the build process, corrected Webpack configuration for GitHub Actions, and added new project rules.
  • Pre-release Beta Indicator (#1060): Added a "beta" tag to the extension icon for pre-release builds to make them easily distinguishable.
  • Playwright Test Reports (#1034, #1037): Test reports are now hosted on GitHub Pages with automatic sanitization.
  • Enhanced Test Tracing Controls (#1031) for better debugging.
  • Font Loading Fix (#1052): Corrected an issue where fonts were not loading properly.
  • Improved Error Handling (#1069): Wrapped error-capturing logic in a try-catch block to prevent circular error reporting, making the extension more stable.

🐛 Key Bug Fixes

  • Addressed a critical loading issue with the Privy SDK (#1067).
  • Fixed request routing to prevent conflicts with other wallets (#1046).
  • Fixed account key listing for multi-account wallets (#1027).
  • Resolved race conditions in wallet state management.
  • Corrected account switching logic for EVM and child accounts.

Flow Wallet Extension 2.8.5 Release Notes

This release brings significant enhancements to security, data management, developer tooling, and user experience, alongside various bug fixes.

🚀 Features & Improvements:

  • Security Enhancements (Addresses #965):
    • Improved handling of hex strings and data decoding in the signature type display.
    • Optimized the approval page and added chain ID checks before sign type approval.
    • Removed unused code from the keyring for a cleaner, more secure codebase.
    • Fixed potential issues with UTF-8 decoding and added checks for hexstrings. (from commit messages)
    • Wrapped data parsing in try-catch blocks for more robust error handling. (from commit messages)
  • Overhauled Data Storage & Caching (Implements #905):
    • Migrated from legacy storage.getExpiry to a new centralized data storage model using custom React hooks (useNews, useStorageCheck, useAllNftList, useAllTokenInfo).
    • This improves fetching and caching for contracts, NFT lists, token balances/prices, news, and version information.
    • Cleaned up API client methods, removing deprecated ones like getTokenPrices and getEvmFTPrice.
    • Standardized EVM token refresh logic.
  • Keyring Upgrades (Towards #786):
    • Keyrings now store the public key and signature algorithm.
    • Updated methods for retrieving the current public key, including regenerating it with the stored algorithm when restoring the keyring.
    • Renamed submitPassword to unlock and setLocked to locked in the keyring for clarity.
    • Marked several older keyring methods as deprecated.
  • Enhanced Transaction & Network Handling:
    • Network Switching (Fixes #973): Introduced a "Switch Network" component that prompts users if they attempt a transaction on a different network than the one currently active in the UI.
    • FCL Update (Implements #915): Upgraded to FCL v1.18, enabling WebSocket support and removing unneeded FCL dependencies.
  • Improved Mobile Sync Experience (Implements #966):
    • Added a loading/register status display when scanning QR codes from a mobile device for a smoother user experience.
  • Developer Experience & Tooling:
    • Advanced Error Logging & Reporting (Implements #759):

      • In production, most console output is suppressed, while consoleError logs errors to Mixpanel with sensitive information stripped.
      • Updated lint rules to flag direct console usage, promoting the new logging system.
      • Corrected remaining lint errors across the codebase.
    • Script Invocation Documentation (Implements #917): Generated documentation detailing where Cadence scripts are called from within the extension and their triggers.
  • Remote Configuration Service: (from commit messages, PR likely #990 implies this part of #905)
    • Introduced a remote configuration service and refactored feature flag usage for more dynamic control over features.

🐛 Bug Fixes:

  • Child NFT Display (Fixes #967):
    • Corrected the script for checking accessible child NFTs to use the proper address.
    • Fixed the getvaliddata function related to storage information for child NFTs.
  • Currency Display Optimization (Fixes #949):
    • Prevented unnecessary re-renders in the currencyValue component by passing currency code and symbol directly from CoinList, improving performance.
