All you need to do is add your usernames, passwords, or any other personal data to this software and create a master password for accessing all of them.

It also helps you automatically login to various websites or applications and also assists you while filling different web forms. Not only that, it also comes with a built-in password generator to create strong passwords for all your websites and applications account. You can also favorite any stored data for quick access on the “Favorites” tab.
