Amber is a nostr event signer for Android. It allows users to keep their nsec segregated in a single, dedicated app. The goal of Amber is to have your smartphone act as a NIP-46 signing device without any need for servers or additional hardware. "Private keys should be exposed to as few systems as possible as each system adds to the attack surface," as the rationale of said NIP states. In addition to native apps, Amber aims to support all current nostr web applications without requiring any extensions or web servers.

## Amber 6.4.0 - Redesign the multi-request approval screen with explicit Approve/Deny toggles per request and per group, replacing the select-and-confirm flow, with proper error responses for denied bunker requests - Add support for 113 more event kinds with localized labels across all shipped locales, including the Concord kinds, NIP-51 git repository bookmarks and NIP-53 room presence - Add light/dark Compose previews for the multi-event approval screens - Ignore platform finalizer-watchdog TimeoutExceptions in crash reports - Fix a NegativeArraySizeException crash in relay subscriptions by guarding shared maps for concurrent access - Translate the new approval strings (approve, confirm, remember my choice for) in all supported locales - Update translations Download it with [Zapstore]( [Obtainium](https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium), [f-droid](https://f-droid.org/packages/com.greenart7c3.nostrsigner) or download it directly in the [releases page](https://github.com/greenart7c3/Amber/releases/tag/v6.4.0) If you like my work consider making a [donation](https://greenart7c3.com) ## Verifying the release In order to verify the release, you'll need to have `gpg` or `gpg2` installed on your system. Once you've obtained a copy (and hopefully verified that as well), you'll first need to import the keys that have signed this release if you haven't done so already: ``` bash gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 44F0AAEB77F373747E3D5444885822EED3A26A6D ``` Once you have his PGP key you can verify the release (assuming `manifest-v6.4.0.txt` and `manifest-v6.4.0.txt.sig` are in the current directory) with: ``` bash gpg --verify manifest-v6.4.0.txt.sig manifest-v6.4.0.txt ``` You should see the following if the verification was successful: ``` bash gpg: Signature made Fri 13 Sep 2024 08:06:52 AM -03 gpg: using RSA key 44F0AAEB77F373747E3D5444885822EED3A26A6D gpg: Good signature from "greenart7c3 <greenart7c3@proton.me>" ``` That will verify the signature on the main manifest page which ensures integrity and authenticity of the binaries you've downloaded locally. Next, depending on your operating system you should then re-calculate the sha256 sum of the binary, and compare that with the following hashes: ``` bash cat manifest-v6.4.0.txt ``` One can use the `shasum -a 256 <file name here>` tool in order to re-compute the `sha256` hash of the target binary for your operating system. The produced hash should be compared with the hashes listed above and they should match exactly. ## Older versions Release notes for previous versions live in [docs/changelogs](docs/changelogs/README.md).
