How would I find a directory of stores for Waivio? I saw direct links for the camping, coffee and cosmetics stores from a post on Hive, but the main Waivio site does not present me anything when I choose the "Shop" action from the menu.

Currently, Waivio doesn't have a consolidated directory that provides a list of all the social shops that have launched as individual websites.
Many projects are still in development and haven't been made public yet.
Each of these social shops comes equipped with a full Hive frontend, which includes user profiles, news feeds, wallets, as well as search and curated product catalogs. It was initially anticipated that these projects would individually register to be featured on platforms like Hive.io, HiveProjects.io, and similar directories.
Looking at Waivio again (I might want to do some product reviews), I am blocked by having to deal with HiveSigner again. This seems to me to be a broken product whose stated goal was to relieve you of fetching your posting key every time you login, but it is requiring my posting key for me to be allowed to login with my HiveSigner password. Please use Hive Key Chain or a user-friendly authorization mechanism. Am I missing the expected path that a user would take to use this app?
When using Hivesigner for the first time to authorize access to a new app, it requires an active key. This is a requirement of the Hive blockchain, not Hivesigner. One way to address this is to create a new account and use it to claim sponsored rewards, create objects, and even launch social shopping websites.
Prior to the emergence of HiveAuth, there was no easy way to log in to Hive websites on mobile phones, and our usage is predominantly on smartphones. A task for HiveAuth integration is already on the to-do list on Waivio GitHub.
In the meantime, here is a tutorial with some best practices for managing private keys on multiple devices.
That was my understanding of hivesigner, but in my experience it just asks me for my key each time, and then ironically requires my hivesigner password. On android with brave browser. The other methods of authentication work as intended. There are four methods that peakd offers, i have used the chrome plugin and the keychain android app without needing to enter my keys beyond the first time setup.
Hmm, it seems you might have a security setting in the Brave browser that's causing your settings to be deleted. Generally, Hivesigner works as expected: you enter your keys once. It also functions well when switching between multiple accounts.
There used to be an extremely annoying issue with Hivesigner - a checkbox for saving keys was checked by default. This caused issues whenever people tried to use a password manager, as it would attempt to save the keys and prompt users to enter an additional password.
Recently, they've updated the system so that the checkbox is unchecked by default, and now password managers work smoothly.
