PasswordLocker 1.0.0.20
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 the one that goes by the name of PasswordLocker.
Neat interface with a friendly layout
This application comes with a pretty nice looking front-end and it features some carefully designed graphics which are consistent from end to end. The information you add is kept at hand and easily accessible, while the commands and functions are also conveniently placed for ease of use.
The smooth navigation through menus and functions is another positive characteristic of PasswordLocker and it is well worth taking into consideration insofar as the app's design is concerned.
Add custom categories and input your logins for safeguarding
The utility brings you a neat set of built-in folders for you to store various types of passwords, but you can also create the containers manually. The process is very simple and you can even assign a custom picture for each category you add.
This app works in a really simple manner, as all you have to do is choose the category for the new items you create, write down the username and password, add a hint for the passkey and an URL address, as well as optionally write down some text in the "Note" field before saving the information.
The entries you mark as favorites will appear in the dedicated section of PasswordLocker, so it is a lot easier to retrieve them when needed.
Basic protection and password recovery abilities
The application relies on a pretty simple method of securing the access to the information it has in store, more precisely you have to setup a PIN code from the first run and you can then modify it if needed.
Also on the initial launch you will be prompted to provide the necessary data for activating the password recovery feature, so your name and an email address will be required.
Unfortunately, the utility does not prompt for the access code when called from the list of recently used apps if it was left running in the background, so this will expose the contained information.
