The workaround to the lockbox glitch

I have used this app for about 10 years. When it was upgraded to iOS 11, there became an issue with saving the information. Sometimes the name of the entry would be translated into Gibberish. The simple solution to this problem, when it unpredictably occurs, is to merely touch the entry, and then save it again. This magically causes the gibberish to be transformed back into the name of the entry you had put in. Touch the done and your entry is complete. I continue to use this app, despite the flaw, just because it is free and simple. It doesn’t try to store things in the cloud. I suppose it will eventually stop working with one of the future iOS upgrades, so there is a danger of continuing to use it when the Creator has apparently abandoned it. Still, I’ve gotten used to it and I like the locking sound. It makes when I key in the combination.

Disappointed

I have used this app for several years. I noticed gibberish being typed but found ways around it. Recently found the need to change my password and when I did, all my passwords and names changed to gibberish. List all my information. Just because of that I would waste $2.99 on the pro version.

App has failed me

This was a good app for basic secure storage of info like account credentials, etc. I’ve used it for a couple years. Recently, most like through an update, all my data is showing as gibberish. Common names that emerge entered (like Marriott) now display as }^*€~>>gjv*>Β£?!7;?
Exporting the data shows the same thing. All data is now useless and there is no app support link available that works.
What a failure.

The publisher’s gave up

It seems like the publishes stopped making updates two years ago.
The main problem I see is that whenever you enter account names longer than a few characters, the app changes it to gibberish when saving it. That forces you to shorten the account name to 3-4 characters, which makes it difficult to identify when you have a lot of passwords saved.
Since it appears the publishers are not interested in fixing that, I’ll just have to start migrating to another app.

PLEASE UPDATE!!!
Opening screen is too dark to see the numbers. When adding new items, every other entry turns to jibberish, and goes back and forth as you use the app. I really liked this app and still use it in spite of its quirks. Please fix it so I can enjoy it again!
