Password Note 1.0.0.1
For those who want to keep logins and account details safe onto their Windows Phone devices it might be worth trying out Password Note, a specialized tool that was made to help in this respect.
Friendly looks and efficient layout
The application will greet you with a pretty simple design that relies on a very practical layout, where all the information is preserved in orderly fashion and easy to access.
The stored items appear inside the main screen as pinned notes, with a neat design of the corresponding tiles. Also, navigating through the various sections and menus of Password Note is straightforward and without any delays or other glitches.
The functions and commands are all placed at hand, so you can create new items and edit them with minimal efforts. A constant nuisance is represented by the ad banner that is stuck to the upper side of the screen where it keeps on changing.
Add and manage entries on the go
Password Note offers a straightforward method of adding and taking care of your credentials, so you should have no problems in adding the necessary information and then editing or disposing of it if needed.
The app allows you to specify the title of the new entry, add the username and password and then hit the "Save" button to complete the job. Each entry can be viewed separately and edited or modified in a very simple manner.
A neat thing about this utility is the fact that it keeps all the items in its database neatly organized, in alphabetical order, so they can be easily retrieved and viewed or managed.
Basic password protection
The application relies on a simple numeric access PIN code to limit the access to the stored content and you can even set a hint to remind you of it, but there is an important drawback from the security perspective that may affect the security of the credentials.
More precisely, when Password Note is running in the background and it is selected from the recently used apps list there is no prompt for providing the login passkey, which means that all the data stored inside the app is exposed if someone gets a hold of your phone.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
The front-end of this utility is clearly meant for practicality, as it lacks some visually appealing graphics. |
Function3
The ease of use for this app is certainly welcomed, but the fact that it doesn't succeed to fully protect the content is a serious letdown. |
Security6
The application requires permission to go inside many sensitive areas of the system that are not related to its actual functioning. |
Battery7
Password Note takes up a noticeable amount of power, so its consumption keeps the battery usage at moderate to high levels. |
Price9
All the functions can be used freely and free of costs, but there are some irritating flashing ads inside the interface. |
Compatibility10
Designed to run well on most Windows Phone handsets, the app is good to go when installed onto any device powered by version 7.5 or higher of the OS. |
