Key features: Custom record fields Add your own labels and content to each record, making it easy to save different kinds of information. Fast search Search by title, field name, or field content to quickly find what you need. One-tap copy Copy field content directly while viewing a record. App lock Enable password protection to add an extra entry barrier for private information. iCloud sync Sync data across your devices with iCloud, so you can use it on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Local reset If you forget your unlock password or want to start over, you can clear all data and reset the app lock status.
