Live Password 11.0.0.4
For those who are trying out several apps that offer password-based protection and encryption on the go, Live Password for Windows Phone is worth a go, mainly because it provides great ease of use.
Decent looks and organization of the content
This application comes with a relatively simple and unadorned interface, but it features some carefully designed graphics which are consistent from end to end. The information you add is kept at hand and accessible from the main screen.
In case you have a lot of entries hosted inside Live Password, you can browse to the desired category in a simple manner, by tapping the name of a group and then picking the destination from the list that appears immediately.
Simple data entry procedure and keyword management
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, namely choosing the category and then inserting the necessary data.
With Live Password you will be able to keep inside its password protected storage credit card data, logins, email accounts, websites and all sorts of notes. A neat feature is the support for creating photo collections, so all the pictures on your phone can be secured and organized inside as many albums as you want to make.
The application also enables you to keep and manage a list of keywords, which can be accessed via the main menu at the bottom of the screen. By tapping any item on that list you will remove it instantly.
Export and sharing abilities
Live Password is capable of sending the information related to any entry to your contacts as an SMS or inside an email message, as well as via social networks.
The cloud integration is also present and you will have the possibility to upload all the entries at once to your OneDrive account, but note that it will be sent unprotected and unencrypted, in plain text format.
An important drawback become visible as you switch to another app while using this utility because from the list of recently used applications anyone with access to the handset can see the content of Live Password. Also, it doesn't require the passcode when opened from that list.
