Cards not universal

[Clint Chaplin]

I have a problem that seems to have popped up elsewhere, but turns out to be more widespread than originally indicated.

I have two Mooltipass originals, one plastic and one metal.  I am attempting to use one as the backup for the other, which means I would like my cards to successfully work in both.

However, I am not having much luck.  Cards I backup on one unit will not work on the other, even though I have copied the data file between the two units.  If I backup on one unit, the card is not recognized on the other unit "Unknown card".  I have one card that does work on both; it was the card I used to copy over the file to the other unit.

Could I have two different firmware versions on the two units?  Is what I am attempting to do impossible?

Hello Clint,

When you have the unknown card message on a given mooltipass, open the app, it'll invite you to select the export file associated with your card.

Keep in mind that your databased is stored on a given mooltipass memory, the card only stores your encryption key (as mentioned in our user manual)

Regards,

Mathieu

I have done that.  I now have the export file on the new unit.  But any card I subsequently backup on that new unit will not be recognized on the original unit.  And vice versa.

Oh.. it's because that backup file (for the mooltipass original only!) contains the list of known cards... so each time you clone a card on a mooltipass original, you need to make a new backup.

This is not valid for the mini.

What is the maximum number of cards in the list?  I can see where this might be a problem.

that the mooltipass can store in its memory? something around 40 IIRC.

Does this mean that I could not copy a backup from the mini to the original?  Sounds like the mini does not keep track of known cards, while the original requires such a list.

Clint,

Both devices keep track of known cards. You can copy a backup from the mini to the original.

What happens when the known card list fills up?

Hello Clint,

If you use the mini to clone your cards, this will never happen.

I guess I'll wait for my mini to be delivered.
