A big update: Nexus can now update itself, switch between vaults without restarting, unlock with a PIN, and has a new look throughout.

Before you install

  • Install this one by hand. v0.1.4 and older can't update themselves, so download v0.2.0 from the downloads page once. From v0.2.0 on, Nexus checks for updates by itself.
  • Vault sync over SFTP or FTP now uses the Remote Path you set (older versions ignored it and used the login folder). Update every machine that syncs the same vault at the same time, or an old version and a new one will sync to different places. The first sync after updating still finds a vault left in the login folder.

Features

  • In-app updates. On Windows, Nexus downloads new versions in the background and offers "Restart to update". On macOS it tells you when a new version is out and opens the downloads page. You can turn the checks off in Settings. (#16)
  • Switch vaults from the sidebar without restarting the app. (#17)
  • Manage vaults from the vault picker: rename, show in folder, or delete a vault (deleted vaults go to the Recycle Bin / Trash). (#30)
  • PIN unlock. Set a PIN in Settings → General → Security to unlock the open vault quickly. The PIN is kept in memory only, so after a restart you unlock with your master password (or hardware key) again; five wrong PINs turn it off. (#31)
  • New design across the app: a new app shell with a collapsible sidebar, and redesigned lock screen, hosts view, host and group forms, settings, vault sync, keychain, SFTP browser and snippets. (#19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #26)
  • New icons throughout the app. (#18)
  • Better contrast: secondary text is now readable on every theme. (#29)

Fixes

  • Vault sync over SFTP/FTP now stays in the configured Remote Path. (#14)
  • Notification toasts now show up. (#15)
  • Settings → Terminal (font, cursor, scrollback and so on) now applies to your terminal sessions. (#24)
  • Copied private keys are cleared from the clipboard after the timeout, and the links in About now open. (#25)
  • Snippets set to "Run on connect" now run when a terminal connects. (#27)
  • Updated build tooling to clear security advisories in development dependencies. (#28)
