Hi Robert, Hermit doesn’t yet support hardware security keys, so unfortunately we recommend that you use an alternate browser at this time if you're in the Advanced Protection Program.

Looks like you received the email, and you're all set. 👍 As listed everywhere on our website and in the app, the best way to request help is to Send Feedback from within the app, which sends an email with basic technical info pre-populated so we can help you faster. Thanks!

Targets Android 15

Although Hermit has been running seamlessly on devices running Android 15 for many months now, including full-screen edge-to-edge UI for every screen, this upgrade means Hermit can take advantage of certain niche features that are only available on Android 15.

Sandbox Improvements

In the Sandbox Settings UI, Hermit now shows a list of all Lite Apps in each Sandbox. This can help you figure out why a particular Sandbox may be taking up a lot of storage or cached data on your device.

After many months of waiting patiently for bug reports, we received no more than 3 across millions of users. This tiny number helped validate our careful, controlled approach & we are now confident that this has been a successful migration.

Speedier Loading of All Lite Apps

In Hermit 27, we migrated internal data structures from a file-based system to a database-backed system. You may likely already have noticed performance improvements from this transition when opening Lite Apps.

In-House Telemetry

Over the years, Chimbori Apps have relied on third-party tools to collect & analyze telemetry data to provide crash insights. With AppCenter shutting down, we looked at the available options on the market, and decided that the time was right to bring this functionality in-house.
