You are welcome!

I hope it meets any company objections to security.
It requires iOS 8 and a device with Touch ID - iPhone 5s or newer or the iPads just released.
It stores your password in the secure enclave of the device and can only be read with TouchID.
And it is the fastest and easiest login since the company imposed CAPTCHA on the eGrid.

Default Thanks!

I just picked up an new iPhone just so I could use FXCal. I will load her up tonight and see how it works.

Its taken me the better part of a month to learn how to use the IOS system. My android habits were firmly ingrained.

I figure one good trip pickup and it will all be worth it.

Might as well wait for iPhone 8++ then.

The TouchID will be on a wristwatch like device, and the text-to-voice earpiece will be so small nobody will notice you're wearing one.

Thanks for the great improvement. Touch ID and Fxcal together make a beautiful combo.

Default Touch ID stopped working

Anyone else having this problem? I was using Touch ID with FX Cal. Then about a week ago it stopped working. When I attempt to re-sync my VIPS password with the Touch ID I get a message, "There was an error trying to save. %@"

I don't recall updating the app recently. I'm running FxCal v4.9.0 on iPhone 5S, iOS 8.1.

Any thoughts?
Thanks

Not to ask the obvious but you are going to FxCal Update pilot info>Pilot.fedex.com password? I had a similar problem updating mine when my Vips password expired. I ended up just deleting my FxCal password and typing in the new one and then sliding the touch id option back to on...that fixed my issue.
