Android User Authentication

Open CrazyChaoz opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Your docs state

Android Keystore is only useful when you want to require user authentication for key use

but your implementation looks like it would need a complete rewrite of the AndroidKeystoreKmsClient.java to be able to handle user authentication for key use.

Is that intended? Or is there an easy way around the limitations of the existing implementation?

You are right, this is inconsistent. We do plan to work on this, and to improve android keystore integration API. But it is not a priority and will take some time. Sorry.
