1. What is this update about, and why is it happening?
- Answer: Google has introduced Manifest v3 as the new standard for Chrome extensions. This update enhances security, improves performance, and strengthens privacy controls. All extensions are required to transition to Manifest v3, and IronVest is fully committed to meeting this requirement to ensure a secure and reliable experience for you.
2. How does the new version of the IronVest extension affect me?
- Answer: The core experience remains intact, and the new version introduces a Panel Switcher feature to help you navigate between Accounts, Passwords, Emails, and more. However, the mini-dashboard (popup interface) is temporarily unavailable in this version. The mini-dashboard will return soon with an improved design and enhanced functionality.
3. What is the Panel Switcher, and how does it help me?
- Answer: The Panel Switcher allows you to select the correct panel (e.g., Accounts, Emails, Pay, etc.) if the extension does not automatically detect the right one for a field. This new feature improves usability, especially when logging in or filling forms, giving you more control when the field type isn’t recognized correctly.
4. How will I know when the update has happened?
- Answer: The update will happen automatically in the background. You may see some temporary notifications in the Chrome Store related to the transition, but these will disappear once the process is complete. We will keep you informed through email and in-app notifications when the update has fully rolled out.
5. What’s happening to the mini-dashboard (popup interface)?
- Answer: The mini-dashboard is temporarily unavailable in the current version, but we’re actively working on restoring it. It will soon return with a fresh, improved experience to help you manage accounts, passwords, identities, and more seamlessly.
6. Will the update happen automatically? Do I need to do anything?
- Answer: Yes, the update will happen automatically. Chrome will handle the transition in the background, so you don’t need to take any action. If you notice any issues, please let us know.
7. What if I experience issues with autofill or other features?
- Answer: If you encounter problems, please contact us at support@ironvest.com. We are actively monitoring feedback and releasing frequent updates to fix bugs and address issues as quickly as possible.
8. Is my data secure during this update?
- Answer: Yes, your data is fully secure. Manifest v3 is specifically designed to enhance extension security, and IronVest remains dedicated to protecting your information with the highest privacy and security standards.
9. When will the mini-dashboard be available again?
- Answer: We’re working to reintroduce the mini-dashboard in an upcoming update. Stay tuned for its return, as it will provide enhanced usability and an improved interface for managing your accounts, passwords, and other information.
