Just wrote in a magazine about an interesting approach to store your passwords. Just have a look here. As far as I understood the source of the software is GPL. I like that approach not to save all my passwords on my device. Would be nice to have this app as a native app on my jolla
+1 looks like a great solution to the epic passwords problem

je ( 2014-08-14 13:50:18 +0300 )editthe most annoying thing about generated passwords is that you may not remember any of them - I'd love to have something like (or just) passwordsafe + owncloud or webdav sync - you will remember even long passwords if you can make them up with something like Iwant2drivecrazy it is already more secure than any 8 digit random generated password... reading and typing a password with !"§%&/()*'#+ in it lower+upper-case letters and so on is a pain and will always be.
chemist ( 2014-08-14 15:23:07 +0300 )edit@chemist nope, you do not need to remember the generated passwords. That is the "unlike" thing. Let me quote from the FAQ
je ( 2014-08-14 16:28:20 +0300 )editMaster Password has been engineered not to store any secrets on your phone. The secret is your master password and it is only in your head. You enter it when opening the app at which point Master Password remembers it only as long as you leave the app open. Once you ask the app for a site's password, your master password is used to calculate the site's passwordJust want to encourage you to read the FAQ and the Algorithm page. Maybe I can convince you ;)
