OI Safe

OpenIntents Safe for Android™.

Download: Safe-1.3.apk

A safe for Android that protects your passwords and other private data with AES encryption. All encrypted information is stored in a database on the phone. No information is kept online. You can export your passwords in a CSV file, or create an encrypted backup.

OI Safe is the successor of Android Password Safe

The following extensions are available:

  • OI About to display version information, links, credits, and license information.

OI Safe works together with the following applications:

IMPORTANT NOTES

  • If you encrypt notes using OI Notepad, please back up the master key of OI Safe by entering OI Safe and pressing menu > more > backup. Otherwise you will not be able to recover your notes after a phone reset.
  • If you encrypt photos using Obscura, please back up the master key of OI Safe by entering OI Safe and pressing menu > more > backup. Otherwise you will not be able to recover your photos after a phone reset.

When you open OI Safe for the first time. you are prompted to enter a new master password.

Passwords are organized into Categories. You must first create and select a category in order to create passwords.

In each category, you can create passwords and edit their detail information.

You can switch to a touch key pad mode for entering the password.

OI Safe works as a safe for other applications as well: You can encrypt OI Notepad notes through OI Safe using the same master password.

Notes

  • Important: When you launch OI Safe for the first time, an internal master key is generated randomly that is used to encrypt all files. If you uninstall OI Safe, you can no more access your encrypted files. In order to recover them, you have to "restore" the master key from a backup file.
  • Information about the internal workings are available at CryptoIntents
