Password Vault 1.0.0.0
This is because plenty of users learned that it is important to keep their passwords protected inside a special container, encrypted and inaccessible.
Fortunately, there is a pretty diversified choice for Windows Phone users in this respect and among the many applications made for this purpose you can find on suggestively called Password Vault.
Overly simplified looks
The somber appearance of this app doesn't provide any eye-candy elements, but keeps things as simple as possible, so anyone can get along with it without any difficulties.
The graphics inside Password Vault are as basic as they can get, but the navigation through the menus and various sections of the application remains fairly fluent and without delays or other glitches.
A quite noticeable nuisance is the presence of some animated advertisement banners that keep on flashing and which will follow you in every section of the application.
Uncomplicated data entry and management
The utility offers a simple method of adding and managing passwords, so you can store as many logins as you want inside the app. Thus, all you have to do is specify the account name and fill in the password field then simply hit the "Save" button to complete the job.
Viewing and editing the information is very easy as well, so with a single tap you will be able to unlock the fields and make the necessary modifications to the selected Password Vault entry.
The passwords are kept all inside the main screen, so you don't have the possibility to create custom folders to better organize them. On the upside, the entries will appear in alphabetical order, so it is easy to go through them and find the ones you need to use.
In order to remove any account created inside the application, you have to open it and tap the corresponding button form the main menu that is displayed in the lower side of the screen.
There is a functional limitation you might come across after a while, more precisely the items you add have to include at least 4 characters for both the name and password.
Modifying the default access credentials can be done only by using the "Reset password" command, which results in a total removal of the content stored inside Password Vault.

There is a noticeable battery usage while this application is running, as its power consumption reaches high values. |

Users who need a very basic app to safely hold their credentials might do something with Password Vault, despite the annoying adverts. |

Ready to run on most Windows Phone devices on the market, this utility only needs version 7.5 of the operating system to function well. |
