Secrets is an app for storing all of your passwords and anything else you want to keep … secret! There are lots of things in our daily lives that we don’t want other people to know like credit card details, bank details, and of course, passwords. Secrets can protect all of those things and more in an app that’s easy to use but still secured by strong encryption and advanced sync technology. Because we think that your secrets should be yours and yours alone, your passwords and information are never synced with our servers. If you choose to sync your information between devices it will be encrypted and securely saved in iCloud. Secrets uses strong 256-bit encryption and locks your information behind biometric (Face ID or Touch ID) and alphanumeric (a strong and unique passphrase) protection. Despite that, Secrets is full of features that you’re going to love using and will make using your passwords and other information a breeze. FEATURES INCLUDE: • Store all of your passwords, passkeys, credit cards, bank details, and other information so that it’s always there when you need it. • Create reate new, secure, and private passwords for new apps and services. No more trying to come up with a unique password yourself. • Generate one-time passcodes for apps and services that offer two-factor authentication. • Get all of your passwords and information into Secrets with ease — import from 1Password, LastPass, and other popular services or import using a CSV file. • Take your passwords with you. Secrets supports iCloud syncing so your information is always available and up-to-date. • Access your passwords when you need them — Secrets for iPhone and iPad securely integrates with browsers on Windows and Linux so your passwords are never more than a few taps away. • Use password AutoFill to quickly enter usernames and passwords on your Apple devices. PRIVATE AND SECURE We don't have access to your information, including usernames and passwords. Not even in encrypted form! Synced information doesn’t use our servers and nothing leaves your device or iCloud (when syncing is enabled). Information is stored using modern cryptographic algorithms and 256-bit encryption. Use Touch ID or Face ID to unlock Secrets or set up a strong passphrase — or both! You can even use your Apple Watch to unlock Secrets on the Mac. Automatic locking ensures that Secrets keeps all of your information locked away even if your phone/computer is stolen. PRICING Secrets is a free download and there are one-time in-app purchases available to unlock additional features. • Create, edit, delete, and import items after a 7-day free trial. • Unlock shared vaults so you can invite someone else to access your saved items. • A bundle that includes both in-app purchases for a single payment. Alternatively, Secrets is also available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Whether you opt for a one-time purchase or a subscription, it will be valid on all platforms: iOS, iPadOS and macOS.

Quickly send a link from your iOS device to your Mac. It provides a “Send to Mac” button in the share sheet of any app that provides a URL. For example, share a link from Safari on your iPhone or iPad and have it open in the default browser on your Mac. You can send a link even if your iOS device and/or Mac are offline. The link will be sent and received the next time the devices are online. The link will never be lost. The devices do not need to be on the same network. Your iOS device and Mac must have iCloud enabled and be signed into the same Apple ID account. My personal use-case is that I often discover cool stuff when I check Twitter on the go and I want to dig deeper into it later on my Mac. I have tried Instapaper, Pocket, Safari Reading List, iCloud Tabs, and more. The problem with them all is that I forget to check them. You can even use this app to trigger shortcuts on your Mac from your iOS device. See the website for more info. Sends to one Mac only. Install the macOS app on the single Mac you want to receive links on. If you install it on multiple Macs, iCloud may deliver a link to any of them, unpredictably. Note: Because of an iOS bug, you have to restart your device for the Shortcuts actions to show up. Note: Links will not be sent when low power mode is enabled as background syncing is disabled then. They will be sent the next time you open the app. ■ FAQ ‣ How is it better than AirDrop? - Works when your Mac is offline - Works when you are not on the same network as your Mac - Much faster - Opens links on your Mac in the background ‣ How is it better than iCloud Tabs? - Works in any app with a share sheet, not just Safari - Links are opened as tabs in your browser so you cannot miss them - No need to spend time looking for the link in a long list of links - Supports any browser on your Mac - You don't need to keep the tab open on your iOS device for it to be available on your Mac ‣ How is it better than Safari Reading List? - Links are opened right in your browser so you cannot miss them - No need to spend time looking for the link in a long list of links - Supports any browser on your Mac ‣ Can you support multiple Macs? No. I would like to keep the app simple. ■ Privacy The app uses iCloud syncing to securely send links from your iOS device to your Mac. The app developer will not see the links you share. The app does not collect any personal data and does not have any tracking. ■ Support You can contact me through the feedback button in the app.
