Keepers: An Overview of Credit Card Storage Applications

    Despite the fact that mobile acquiring terminals such as Square or 2can allow you to accept payment cards simply by signing on the screen of a smartphone or tablet, our life is still literally crammed with all kinds of account numbers, passwords, PIN codes and other confidential information that we need remember and track. Passwords for frequently visited websites, credit cards, bank accounts, passwords for social networks or specialized groups, driver’s license number, passports and insurance are just a few examples of information that we sometimes need.



    How often do you hear that “for security reasons” you should not use the same password or pin code for all accounts? And also, for greater security, the password should contain a combination of letters and numbers. Also, the password should ideally consist of more than eight characters. Different register. And, to finally protect yourself, use at least one special character. Are they serious? .. Multiply the number of options by the number of your accounts and you quickly realize that storing all these multi-character combinations in memory is not possible. Writing passwords on a piece of paper, in order to better remember or remember on occasion, getting a hint from under the keyboard, is completely counterproductive.
    For the average layman, remembering such a volume of information can be a feasible task, but it is very boring. Fortunately, there are applications for the iPhone and iPad, designed to help people safely store and organize access to all sources of sensitive data so that information is available when it is needed, but is reliably protected and encrypted from unauthorized access.

    Applications for reliable storage of information on iOS devices


    The AppStore is full of security related apps. At first glance, it may even seem that they are generally the same, since they implement a simple procedure. But not all of them are equally useful and each offers a unique set of features that make use more specialized. In the end, we must know what to pay for.

    Top apps



    1Password, 579 rub


    If you have ever forgotten your password, then you know how unpleasant and annoying the recovery procedure is (especially when it comes to a PIN code to a bank card). With the 1Password application, you will only need to remember one password. This password will open access to the application, which will store all other access passwords. This application can also generate a strong, unique password for each site. It has a built-in browser and saves other types of personal data, such as credit card numbers, passports and bank accounts. The fact that 1Password is a universal application and synchronizes with a computer makes it one of the most loved by users.


    Wallet, 329 rub.


    Wallet is an application that stores and encrypts your passwords, credit card numbers, serial numbers and so on. All information is synchronized in a secure manner through Dropbox or another WebDev server. Priced at just $ 10, Wallet is a great replacement for 1Password at a lower price. Even the Mac version is cheaper than a similar solution from 1Password, which makes Wallet an even more useful and attractive solution.


    mSecure, 329 rub


    256-bit encryption and a whole set of tools for conveniently saving passwords and account numbers. In addition, proprietary technology for protecting cloud data that does not depend on the reliability of the "cloud" itself, backing up by e-mail, optional data destruction when hacking. The highest rating in the AppStore.


    oneSafe, 199 rub


    This nice, versatile app uses iCloud to sync. Keeping the same functionality as 1Password, OneSafe and mSecure, this program uses all the features of iOS to give the user a convenient and functional interface, coupled with intuitive navigation. iCloud works great, making this application the winner in this review. oneSafe is perhaps one of the best apps of its kind for iOS.


    Worth paying attention to



    DataVault Password Manager, 329 rub.


    DataVault is a worthy replacement for 1Password. The application provides easy migration by importing data from applications 1Password, eWallet, SplashID, mSecure, IE, Firefox, Roboform and others through software for Windows or Mac. The application allows you to synchronize data through MobileMe, WebDAV, local Wi-Fi and file sharing. It can also store various data formats, including passwords, credit cards, frequent flyer cards, bank accounts, and much more. This program has a pretty nice interface, but not as beautiful and elegant as 1Password.


    eWallet, 329 rub


    The application performs all the same functions as the previous ones, but does it in a Spartan and utilitarian way. If you are looking for true beauty, then this is not your choice. If you are a proponent of a practical approach, then this is a great app. The set includes 256-bit encryption, a keeper of all passwords, synchronization via Wi-Fi, provided that they are on the same network, and an automatic password generator.


    AllYourPasswords, 33 rub


    This application best describes the response of one of the users in the AppStore: “An excellent application, what you need, on the topic, without whistle farts :)” The functionality is standard, low price.




    How to protect wallet contents using these applications?


    Once you have installed one of these programs, start by walking through the contents of your wallet. Enter the account numbers and additional information about each debit and credit card, as well as all identification cards and club cards, in the application. For each cell, enter a support phone number in case of loss or theft.
    Subsequently, if you ever lose your wallet or it is stolen, you will have a complete list of missing items with phone numbers in order to block cards and order new ones. You will not spend much time searching for numbers of all organizations that have been recorded on maps. A simple but effective solution. What to do if your phone is stolen? - Do not worry, because at least you still have a wallet and a backup copy of the data on the network.
