Update the iOS App Store and Google Play StoreAfter the update of the student-schedules API, update the apps in the app store and google play store
  • Android (Jimmy)
    •  The function of GOLD login has completely transferred to Google OAuth. It is available in Google Play Store 20 days ago. More than 70% of active users have updated to the newest version. 
  • iOS (Henry)
    •   From Henry: here’s only small things left to finish OAuth for getting student’s schedule. I can finish it before this fall quarter.
    •  The app has had the Schedule information removed until the OAuth implementation can be put in place. This is a great compromise to keep things secure.
    •  Updated and released (released:  )

Move Keys/Secrets to the Heroku Service Where possible, move keys/secrets to the Heroku service so that they aren't stored within the mobile application.

  • This is really a part of "Store Keys/Secrets on the Heroku Service Securely (nodejs)"

Store Keys/Secrets on the Heroku Service Securely (nodejs)Use encryption at rest (or a reasonable alternative) to store the keys/secrets securely.
  • Encrypted Data
  • File should not be in source control
