LockBox App for iPhone Review
LockBox app for iPhone is a simple secret-keeper application for your smart-phone. It caters to everyone’s basic needs, and none can beat its non-existent price tag. The passwords are restricted to numbers only; but that should not be an issue if you could conjure up a long enough password of numbers.
How LockBox iPhone App Works?
LockBox app for iPhone helps you save and protect sensitive information such as your credit card numbers, bank account details, private notes, pin numbers, or any other secret information that you don’t want others to access.
LockBox iPhone app has six categories – five defined ones and one ‘other – to store/organize your information. Under each category, you’ve got three fields: one each for ‘title’, ‘information’, and ‘Notes’. You can fill in two lines of info under ‘information’ and three under ‘Notes’. However, across categories, this format does not change. In other words, you won’t find any field exclusively named ‘credit card details’ or ‘bank account information’. You have to customize one among the available categories to suit your requirements.
As mentioned, every data you store in iPhone LockBox mobile application is protected by a secret code. It is just that you should remember the codes if you wish to access your info later on.
A notable downside with the app is that you can’t enter clickable URLs anywhere in the fields. Also, you can’t sort or search the entries, which may be a turn off for few. But then LockBox is supposed to be a very basic secret keeper application. You can’t have every feature under its hood.
Final Thoughts
LockBox app for iPhone provides basic protection features; the data is encrypted and protected by your secret code so that only you could access the info anytime. Lack of search/sort feature might annoy few. But then this is a very basic secret keeper app that is downloadable as a freebie from iTunes. Those who require more sophisticated levels of protection may opt for paid ones, or LockBox’s own pro version. Verdict: A handy secret keeper application to have in your iPhone.
