Hi folks,

 

So I've *finally* tried the new app on Apple (via Test Flight). I have some concerns. I've attached two screenshots (one of the old one, one of the new). The profile selected has realm enforcement switched on, and you can see that in the old screenshot it enforces that visibly in that when you switch focus away from the username, it automatically completes that.

 

The new username and password prompt is less user-friendly for several reasons:

 

1. It's a pop-up. That is quite a change from the old version.

2. It does *not* automatically enforce the realm, in other words, if I just type 'eons.net', it just leaves it as that. That is a problem. It does do the realm enforcement *after* the password is prompted, so it's not like realm enforcement does not happen, but it is *not visible*, and thus this can return us to the bad old days of bad usability.

3. It does not have the ability to view the password. The old one does not have that option either, but it's been on the issues list going on 2 years. Adding this will reduce password errors even more. See https://github.com/geteduroam/ionic-app/issues/104

 

So, I'm obviously conscious of the fact that half of Europe is still on summer holidays, so when normal operations resume, could the developers of the new version be made aware of these issues and address them, please?

 

Thank you! :-)

Hmmm, I don’t like the new prompt.
