Security you don’t have to memorize. Most password generators create strings of characters that are impossible to type and even harder to remember. CipherKey takes a different approach, focusing on high-entropy passwords that make sense to humans but are a nightmare for hackers. The Signature Feature: Memory Mode The biggest pain point of security is forgetting your own keys. Memory Mode solves this by combining real English words with symbols and numbers. The result is a passphrase that is easy to visualize and type on a mobile keyboard, but mathematically impossible to brute-force. Expand Your Vocabulary: We pull from a library of thousands of words. We occasionally include rare words to boost security. Learn While You Lock: Not sure what a word means? CipherKey displays the definition right in the generator. Improve your vocabulary while you secure your digital life. Dual-Mode Generation Memory Mode: Human-friendly, word-based passphrases for your most-used accounts. Classic Mode: High-randomness alphanumeric strings for maximum-security vault keys. Built to Your Specs The 12-32 Range: Stay within the security sweet spot—long enough to be unhackable, but short enough to fit any site’s requirements. Deep Customization: Toggle symbols, numbers, and casing with a single tap to meet specific website rules. Grounded Security Native Encryption: We use the device’s own secure systems (Keychain) to ensure no one can read your passwords but you. On-Device Only: Your passwords never leave your phone. We do not have servers, so we cannot see your data. Biometric App Lock: Keep snoopers out by enabling a mandatory fingerprint or FaceID scan every time the app opens. Pure Experience No Ads: We believe security tools should be clean and distraction-free. No Tracking: We do not collect your data or monitor your usage. No Subscriptions: All features are available without recurring fees.
