Password Pocketbook 1.0.0.0
If you are one of those who need an extra security layer for the login credentials, bank cards and other info stored onto your Windows Phone, you can try an interesting app called Password Pocketbook.
Clean GUI with a convenient layout
The tidy interface of this app was made to ensure you will have an easy time going through all the menus and modules. Also, browsing the list of passwords and loading the details corresponding to each entry are done immediately and without any delays.
The content is kept very well organized and easy to reach, as each type of entry is placed in its corresponding category for quick retrieval.
Nonetheless, there is a visible drawback inside Password Pocketbook and it is represented by the presence of some annoying full screen ads that appear quite frequently.
Create new entries and manage them
The application comes with a few built-in categories that you can populate with fresh additions where the details you want to keep at hand are stored. Altering or deleting the records is pretty straightforward, as there are dedicated button for each option when accessing the individual listings.
For every entry you create inside this utility you will have to specify a set of details, particularized for every type of item you add to the app's database. Adding individual remarks or notes is also an option you can use for all the entries you create or modify.
Security options and precautions
When launching the application for the first time you will be prompted to create an access code that will be requested every time Password Pocketbook is opened and you can easily modify it at a later time from the special module available in the home screen.
Unfortunately, there is a major flaw of this app that has to be mentioned and it is the fact that when left running in the background and restored from the phone memory, the utility will no longer ask for the security code you set up on the first run. This means that anyone who can access your handset while the tool is running will be able to view the passwords.
