ioPay Desktop

ioPay desktop is a desktop wallet for IoTeX. You can download it from https://iopay.iotex.io/desktop. Or you can directly download from github: https://github.com/iotexproject/iotex-explorer/releases

It is fully self run wallet that does not reply on browser. So it is much safer than browser based wallets.

How to check file hash

When you download ioPay Desktop from Github, you may want to check the file hash before using it.

In each release, there is a file called latest.yml in the release. For example

version: 0.10.0
files:
  - url: ioPay-0.10.0-mac.zip
    sha512: qu+kDkAxpJpGWGv3nQNItEtQ8darJFpdYQk5gfaeTUgSC0L42BFZs3J5rokUYDA/EcfxqiYkjP9jI7/rUZKaeA==
    size: 75588074
    blockMapSize: 80132
  - url: ioPay-0.10.0.dmg
    sha512: NZawHKdr3Z8W7p68dbf0iQtAPidK1iexg36A/52K3Gkky8K9+0zioa/DAvfJnTRKW7UkF/oqZgauCY1igIRGhg==
    size: 78538689
path: ioPay-0.10.0-mac.zip
sha512: qu+kDkAxpJpGWGv3nQNItEtQ8darJFpdYQk5gfaeTUgSC0L42BFZs3J5rokUYDA/EcfxqiYkjP9jI7/rUZKaeA==
releaseDate: '2020-06-14T01:35:49.891Z'

The sha512 is the hash of the installer file. It is base64 enconded. You can check and compare using this command

shasum  -a 512 path.to.file | xxd -r -p | base64
