Product updates

Newest first. Product updates (this page) are short narrative notes for the outside world — momentum and context — kept separate from long-form articles. When public releases begin, versioned technical release notes will live on the changelog.

• May 2026 Milestone
  May was a consolidation month, deliberately. The Android app reached internal test — the first time real testers outside the project encountered a complete Ezkey flow: enrollment, pending authentication, and end-to-end cryptographic chain. The app is now available in French and English. A conversation this month clarified something that had been building for a while: the right move now is to invest in explicit design, specification, and methodology rather than sustaining a high feature pace. The Back to foundations essay, published mid-month, is the written-out version of that shift. It is not a detour — it is how the project matures responsibly before a public release.
• April 2026 Milestone
  The Ezkey Android app is being submitted to Google Play as a technology preview for early adopters. The source code is currently kept private while we finalize hardening and documentation. The current plan is to open the repository publicly in September 2026, with the first official release, subject to the usual pre-release work.
• March 2026 Status
  The admin UI is about 90% complete. The mobile app is being rewritten, and the crypto APIs are under review. QA is getting more thorough and surfacing many issues to fix before a release. Progress is steady, and the product is starting to take shape.
• February 2026 Milestone
  Building an authentication system is challenging. Making it safe and reliable is harder. Ezkey will ship in phases; the first is due in the coming months. It will be a technology preview: it will show what the system can do, but it will not be production-ready. On the activity side: a web Admin UI began taking shape this month — initially scoped to tenant administration — alongside audit log integrity through HMAC-signed chains, admin deactivation, and a non-blocking authentication option. The construction had begun in earnest.
