Abiro NFC Writer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Use this very simple tool to write NFC tags, e.g. for opening sites. How to write an NFC tag: 1. Select Record Type, enter Content and optionally set Read Only as per your needs. 2. Hold a tag close to the back and move around until you hear a beep. 3. Hold it stable until you see a message. 4. Retry if needed. Notes: - Only one Text or URI record is supported per tag. - URIs (links) need to be complete with "https://" etc. - Use copy/paste to simplify entering content. - Be careful with Read Only as it's permanent.

Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.
