Two-factor codes, everywhere you sign in. Jumpstash is a beautifully native authenticator for the entire Apple ecosystem. Glance at your wrist, AutoFill in Safari, scan on your phone - your codes are with you wherever you log in. WHAT MAKES JUMPSTASH DIFFERENT - APPLE WATCH COMPLICATION Your most-used verification code, right on your watch face. Inline, circular, or rectangular — each with a live 30-second countdown ring. No more pulling out your phone. - SAFARI & SYSTEM AUTOFILL Tap a verification-code field in Safari or any iOS 18+ app, choose Jumpstash, done. Zero copy-paste. - MAC MENU-BAR APP One click in the menu bar, see your code, copy, dismiss. No System Settings detour. - FACE ID & TOUCH ID LOCK Codes hide behind biometric authentication. Backgrounding the app instantly draws a privacy curtain — no peeking from the app switcher. - LOSSLESS BACKUP & PORTABILITY Export every code as JSON for a perfect restore, plus standard otpauth:// URIs and QR codes. Your codes are yours — take them anywhere, anytime. - iCLOUD KEYCHAIN SYNC Your codes follow you across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch automatically — synced by Apple, end-to-end encrypted. - PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No accounts. No servers. No telemetry. Jumpstash never sees your secrets — they live in your iCloud Keychain, protected by Apple's own security model. DESIGNED FOR YOU IF… > You 2FA across dozens of services every day > You want a glanceable code on your wrist without opening your phone > You care about export portability and don't want to be locked into one ecosystem > You prefer a focused, single-purpose app over a sub-feature buried in another tool WHAT ABOUT APPLE PASSWORDS? Apple's Passwords app does TOTP, and it does a good job. For most people, it's enough. Jumpstash exists for users who treat 2FA as a daily ritual: a watch complication for instant access, true export so your codes are never locked behind a one-way iCloud door, and a UI built around codes as the first-class experience instead of a sub-feature. WHAT'S INSIDE - QR code scanner with one-tap import - otpauth:// URL handler (tap a link in Messages, Mail, or any app to import) - Manual entry with a live preview that animates as you type - Edit any code (name, issuer, or secret) without losing the entry - Delete with confirmation - Global search and Contacts-style #-A-Z index with drag-scrubbing for fast navigation across many codes - Tap any code to copy it - Live countdown ring on every card - Support for SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512 algorithms - Support for custom periods (30s, 60s) and digit lengths (6, 7, 8) PRIVACY & SECURITY Jumpstash uses Apple's iCloud Keychain as its sole storage and sync mechanism. Your TOTP secrets are encrypted end-to-end by Apple, available only to your devices. No analytics SDKs. No tracking. No accounts to create. No servers to trust. Made by Danger Close Security Co.

BADU Connect Remote Pool Management System   In North America BADU Connect from SPECK Pumps gives you a convenient way to manage your Badu® SwimJet System & Pool*. It allows you to manage your SwimJet’s pump, lighting, or other accessories via the internet from anywhere in the world. Setup schedules, turn devices on or off at a moment's notice and even invite friends, or pool professionals to manage your devices too. In Europe, the BADU Connect App enables access to variable speed pumps via BADU NetLink. The various pump speeds can be controlled manually using the BADU Connect app. In automatic mode, appropriate time programs can be set. This makes it easy to control the filter times without much time and effort. The best thing is that even pumps that have been already installed can also become smart. BADU Connect App is FREE to use which makes it easy to access your pool from your smart devices.   In addition, BADU®Connect is also available via the Web. After successfully setting up and activating your account via your mobile device, you can conveniently control your pool equipment from a web browser from any device via the internet.   For product compatibility and additional details please visit https://baduconnect.com   Why Link Your Pool Equipment to Your Smartphone? Why in the world would you need an app to control your Badu® SwimJet* or pool pump at home? I mean, if you are at home, why not just walk out to the pool and check it out or turn it on yourself?   Handheld Convenience. Let’s face it, most technological advances are in the name of convenience. We designed our phone app to make the jobs in your lives easier. An app linking your pool equipment to your phone allows you the convenience of ensuring your equipment is running smoothly from anywhere in the world. You have many options you can control at your fingertips. Including setting daily timers and, for the safety of your family, you can even disable or prevent the use of the swimjet* system by simply tapping a LOCK icon within the app.   Away on Vacation. It’s nice to take vacations. It’s even nicer not to have to worry about your pool while you’re vacationing. Keeping your pool water moving in your pool is critical – and no one wants to return home from a relaxing vacation to deal with unfiltered pool water. On the flip side, no one wants to pay or trouble a neighbor to watch their pool, either. Smartphone devices help solve this problem. A connection between your pump and your smartphone can help eliminate those concerns.   *only available in North America.
