Your Secure Digital Token Wallet
The QMFA Wallet app acts as a secure repository specifically for saving and managing Qwantum Tokens. Now, with the v2.0.1 Major Security and Performance Upgrade, the Wallet introduces dynamic token sharing, streamlined provisioning, and an entirely redesigned navigation system that amplifies your control and transaction security.
Displaying Qwantum Tokens as QR Codes to a barcode-enabled device, including Dyna Devices by MagTek, allows for secure reading and authenticated access into various physical and digital systems. It also eliminates the use of usernames and passwords as knowledge-based authentication data and eliminates Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
What kinds of tokens can you store?
- Simple text: Store any plain string of data you need to access quickly.
- URLs/UIRs: Tokens that, when scanned, open a specific web link.
- URLs/URIs with integrated data: Seamlessly access websites and automatically input token data or TOTP codes into the correct fields.
What Authentication Methods are Supported?
- SMS-Based One-Time Codes (OTC) or multi-use Timed Access Codes (TACs): Receive real-time generated codes via SMS or email.
- Time-Based One-Time Passwords (TOTP): Keep your dynamic security codes readily available using the QMFA Wallet app for iOS.
How does it work?
The app displays your saved tokens as scannable QR codes. When you scan a QR code:
- Open doors instantly: Present your token to an authorized MagTek Dyna Device integrated with your access control system and locked doors become unlocked.
- URLs/URIs open instantly: Your default browser launches and takes you directly to the website.
- Automated data entry: For URLs/URIs with tokens or TOTPs, the app automatically pastes the required information into the designated fields on the webpage. This saves you time and reduces errors.
QMFA streamlines your digital interactions, making it faster and more secure to access online services and information.
Using the QMFA Wallet app for iOS
The QMFA Wallet app lets you manage and view all your digital tokens with an intuitive, modern interface. Version 2.0.1 introduces new navigation menus for core features, global control, security, and support.
Redesigned Navigation and Control
To Add & Provision a Token:
- New Token Creation: Click the Plus Sign icon on the bottom menu bar to start the flow.
- Instant Provisioning: Scan a properly formatted QPass QR Code directly from the Add New Token form, or manually enter the data.
- Customize Visual Identity: Optionally specify an Image URL during creation to add a custom visual identifier instead of the default. (Note: The image URL cannot be modified after saving).
- Save Your Changes: Press "Add Token" to save.
Accelerated Access & Management
Quick-Access Options (Force Touch/Long Press)
Force Touch or long-press on any token's QR code (in QR View) to instantly reveal a dynamic menu:
- Secure QPass Transfer: Quickly and safely transfer eligible tokens to another QMFA Wallet user. (Tokens with a secret/TOTP are single-user and cannot be shared).
- Open in Browser: Instantly launch the token's associated URL in your device’s default browser.
- External Link Sharing: Securely share the web link via native iOS sharing options (Email, Messages, etc.).
- Quick Data Copy: Instantly copy the raw information stored within the QR code directly to your clipboard.
Simplified Management & Sorting
- Streamlined Deletion: On the Managed Tokens Page, simply swipe right-to-left on any token listing to initiate the deletion process.
- Dynamic Sort Order: Use Force Touch (press firmly, then drag-and-drop) on a token in List View to change its display order instantly. This order synchronizes immediately with the Apple Watch app.
- Unlimited Tokens: The app allows you to add an unlimited number of tokens.
To Use a Token:
- Open the App: Tap the app icon on your iPhone's home screen to launch the QMFA Wallet app.
- Select your preferred view: Use the View Toggle on the bottom menu to switch between QR View (swipe side-to-side) and List View (swipe up-and-down).
- Select a Token: Choose the specific digital token you want to use, identified by its "Token Use."
- Display QR Code: A QR code for your selected token will appear on your iPhone screen, ready for scanning by an MMS Dyna Family device with BCR.
- Scan: Hold your iPhone in front of a QR code reader on an MMS Dyna Family device with BCR. The device automatically reads the necessary information, including any embedded TOTP.
- View TOTP (Optional): If you need to see the TOTP manually for entry, locate it on the screen. It will appear on the phone app in red text beneath the QR Code and it will show a countdown timer changing every 30 seconds from 0 seconds and 30 seconds past the minute.
Use Cases: Solving Today’s Core Authentication Problems.
Move Beyond PINs, Passwords, Cards, and Cloned Credentials.
In a world of increasing digital threats, traditional security measures are no longer enough. Magnetic stripes, NFC tages and QR Codes can be cloned. PINs and passwords can be stolen or guessed, and static credentials that contain PII create persistent vulnerabilities. The Qwantum Platform solves these problems by removing static secrets entirely. Each authentication event is dynamically tied to a real user, their specific Qwantum Token, a device such as a host computer or mobile phone/tablet, and that precise moment in time, creating an unforgeable bond of trust.
Flexible Authentication for Every Need
QMFA provides versatile methods to balance security and user convenience.
- One-Time Codes (OTC): For high-security, short-lived events like transaction approvals or password resets, OTCs provide a single-use code delivered via SMS, email, or a mobile app. These codes expire after their one and only use, typically within a few minutes.
- Timed Access Codes (TAC): Ideal for longer-term or repeated access, such as facility entry or event check-ins. A TAC can be configured to last from an hour to a full day or be limited by the number of uses. They are delivered securely via an app, QR code, or an embedded digital pass.
- Time-Based One-Time Passwords (TOTP): For situations requiring strong, continuous authentication, TOTPs offer automatically regenerating codes. The QMFA Wallet app creates a new code every 30 to 60 seconds. These codes are not sent to you; instead, you generate them directly on your phone when needed, making them highly resistant to interception.
