PassWault gives you a simple way to keep your passwords in one place but yet secured. With the autofill integration you will be able to fetch a credential from the app and fill automatically when signing in to apps or websites. You privacy is very important to us, therefore we don't save your credentials or data on a server. This way you can be completely sure that your data will never be accessed by anyone else. This puts you in a total control over your data. You have the possibility to make a backup of your credentials directly in the app and keep it secure. This backup can then be used in the same or another device to restore your credentials. And even more important is that we don't use any analytic tools and track your usage of the app. We like personal feedback and prefer you to come back with your wishes and ideas for new functions or enhancements rather than trying to analyse your behaviour. This way you can have complete peace of mind that no one is watching you. Main features: - Keep your passwords and cards' information secure behind a master password. - Use Face ID or Touch ID for easy login to the app. - Backup your credentials and share to your other iOS devices. - Autogenerate a strong password when adding a new login to the app. - Use autofill function to automatically fill your passwords when signing in to an app or website. If no login exists, you can create one directly from autofill window. - Use the optional Cipher to add extra layer of security to your passwords.

NovaNote is your space to write, organize, and create without interrupting the flow of your ideas. Take notes, create notebooks, add images, scans, drawings, PDFs, audio recordings, tasks, events, and locations: everything stays together in one simple, complete app designed to support your everyday work and creativity. With notebooks, you can organize pages and notes more naturally, keeping projects, study, work, and personal ideas separate and easy to find. Rich text tools let you format text, create lists, adjust alignment, and structure every note with clarity. NovaNote also helps you preserve context. Add locations to notes, connect calendar events, record multiple audio clips in a single note, import attachments, and turn images, scans, and drawings into resources that are always within reach. Attachments are a core part of the experience: add photos, PDFs, images, scans, and drawings, then edit, annotate, crop, and export them whenever you need. Color-coded categories make it easier to quickly find what matters. iCloud sync keeps your content updated across your Apple devices, while improvements to performance, zoom, gallery, scanner, and overall stability make the experience smoother and more reliable. NovaNote is built for anyone who wants functionality and creativity in one place: notes, ideas, documents, and memories, always with you.
