This is a new information management app that organizes your accounts and service-related data by establishing "connections" between them. You can manage a wide range of information—such as login credentials for online services, membership details, payment cards, retail stores, products, and events—by linking these items to one another. The app makes it easy to trace relationships, such as identifying which account you used to log in to a specific service, or determining which stores you use a particular payment card for. You can use the app with complete peace of mind, thanks to secure data management via Apple’s Keychain and seamless authentication through Face ID or Touch ID. By combining search, grouping, and filtering tools, you can quickly locate the specific data you need, even from a large collection of information. You can also centrally manage account expiration dates, billing details, two-factor authentication (2FA) settings, and passkey information. Additional features include: - Data synchronization via iCloud with encryption (compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Mac) - Automatic and manual backups (with encryption) - Notifications for items with upcoming expiration dates - Customizable categories and tags - Support for multiple aliases and quick navigation between related accounts - Linking to payment information - Detection of items that share the same password - Identification of accounts that lack two-factor authentication or passkeys - Addition of custom fields, such as URLs or dates - Sharing of selected data via password-protected PDF, text, json ...and much more, offering a flexible and powerful management experience.
