Passwordshield 1.2.1.0
For those who want to enjoy full protection for their web logins onto their mobile devices, Passwordshield for Windows Phone is definitely one of the possible alternatives.
Functional and simple looking GUI
The quality of the visual aspect seems to have been left aside a bit in favor of practical use, so the looks of this app are less attractive and a lot more functional. Nonetheless, the graphics are decent and the content well structured.
All the content is kept in a list displayed inside the main screen, with some of the details in plain sight. To make it easier for you to navigate among numerous entries, Passwordshield features a neat jumplist option.
Add the entries with no efforts
When it comes to adding passwords, notes or login info, this app offers an intuitive method that takes you through only a couple of steps. More precisely, you will have to assign a name for the entry, select or create a group and pick the password type before inserting the necessary data.
The actual access code you store inside each entry is not shown directly when the database entry is opened, so you will have to tap the dedicated button and reveal it.
Including relevant notes for each stored item is possible as well, while the password expiration indicator can be activated, so you can see at a glance when the respective passcode has to be renewed.
Create complex passwords and backup data
There is a built-in password generation feature that you can use when adding fresh entries and create up to 40 characters long passphrases that may contain lowercase, uppercase, numbers and special characters.
Passwordshield is ready to help you store a backup copy of the password list inside your OneDrive account and sync the database whenever necessary. The information is transmitted encoded for each transfer, so there should be no worries in this respect.
The list of backups is easy to view and manage form the "Settings" area of the application and also from the option customization section you can activate the password prompt for every time the utility is invoked, even when resuming from the recently used apps list.
