It is a standard app on there that comes with the device at present, however we will be enabling in the future that you can remove and add apps as you wish.
Yes we chose to build our own Bluetooth connection to enable all the other features ie, 2fas etc. Not just for firmware updates. However we do not use a standard Bluetooth connection and built our own QuantumLink, which is a protocol that ensures the data is encrypted before it reaches any chips or devices. You can read more about that here: https://foundation.xyz/2025/01/quantumlink-reinventing-secure-wireless-communication/ We understand the more technical users want zero connectivity to be completely offline and that is something we have on our roadmap to enable in the future. Where Passport Prime will not need to depend on Envoy. However, it is still an offline device and does not connect to the internet, with only the QuantumLink connection. Still reduces the attack vector severely than an online device or one that you would plug into the internet.
Offline is the only security model that scales. Updates happen offline. Signing happens offline. Keys never leave the device. Just you and your keys.
The possibilities are going to be endless with our upcoming SDK. What will Passport Prime do for you?
Your money is online. Your memories are online. Your conversations are online. Your identity is online. So why are the passwords and security keys protecting those things online too? Somehow, we normalized that. That was a mistake.
Amazing, this is only going to get better too!
