Are you in fear of forgetting too many passwords, account numbers or codes for credit cards? This application lists them as individual files with a multitude of customizable information fields. It is beautifully presented but only works vertically on the iPad. In the longest course, its to fill this database by entering codes and passwords to many sites or forums that we visit regularly; the most important is to protect access to the application itself, given the seeds it contains.
Several methods are proposed, SplashID is also able to create for himself a secure password that we need to take care of to note because it is very difficult to retain a combination of numbers, letters and special characters randomly generated. Each sheet, and their information, can finally be emailed in text mode to an iPhone, iPod or iPad running the same application.
