NEW Version v1.2 fixes a bug that sometimes causes imports to fail or only import partial data. Thanks to everyone who reported this and helped us fix it!!

NEW Version 1.1 allows you to:

- NEW! Import Bulk Data from your computer into LockBox Pro. Saves lots of typing on your device!

- NEW! Export/Backup data to your computer over a WiFi connection! Remember to do this regularly!

- NO Ads!

Use it to keep information handy and also protected at the same time.

New Pro Edition Features:
(not found in the free version)

* Import Data - create a file on your computer and import it into LockBox Pro via Wifi. Saves you lots of typing on the device.

* Stronger Security - data is secured via Apples Keychain which utilizes 3DES encryption for high security.

* More Flexible - you can add as many fields as you like to each entry. (the free version is fixed at 2 fields per entry)

* No Ads

IMPORTANT:
Existing free version users... you can now upgrade easily while keeping your data! Just export your data first using the free version and then import it into LockBox Pro via the WiFi import feature.

New Features:

* import/export via WiFi
* Sound effects can now be turned off! :-)
* The app exits correctly when you lock your iPhone with the top button.
* You can now easily rearrange and delete items in your list. (and they stay rearranged)
* Your data is backed up via the regular iTunes backup, but be sure to use the new export feature as data is sometimes saved incorrectly in iTunes. iTunes also does not allow you to change devices... your data will be lost if you dont back it up using the new WiFi export method.

(all bug fixes are available in the free version as well... however the new advanced features are not)

More Info:

All data is encrypted and protected by your secret code, so only you have access to it, even if you let your friends borrow your phone to make a call or browse online.

This is the kind of information that you want easy access to while you are on the go, but find it hard to recall just when you need it. For example, I always forget my bank account number right when I need to deposit a check at the bank.

Not sure if you need this?

Try the FREE version first... its called LockBox (not Pro) :-)

Go Pro for a low price for a limited time!

IMPORTANT BACKUP INFORMATION:

Remember to sync and do a backup of your data through the LockBox app before updating to newer versions! You never know what might happen to your phone in the middle of a sync :-) Also, the iTunes backup is not enough in some cases especially when you have to replace your phone or reset it, so make sure you use the WiFi backup method to protect your data. Its the only way to make sure your data is safe when doing a sync or restore for your device.

Pros and cons of LockBox Pro app for iPhone and iPad

LockBox Pro app good for

Export-Function has bug. The shown IP is incorrect unless you deactivate GSM and use only WiFi.

I am using drop box a lot. A nice addition would be an option to create folders. Regarding the synching problem that some of you report: try a different browser. Explorer should work.

Definitely does what it says it does. I used the free version for a while but after realizing how much I used it I decided to give some $upport. Import and export works for me. I needed it because when you buy the pro version your data does not copy across from the free version.

I was able to export before but since the new update, I cant connect to the IP displayed on the screen. Please correct this bug or restore the old export.

Simple but efficient application in order to maitain login, password and codes. I hope in some new feautures in next months... i.e. Search function, encrypted backup throught mail, new interface in landscape mode, etc...

I love the ease and security lockbox offers. Very easy to use. I keep all my passwords, credit card info, drivers license info. Very secure and best if all easy to use. I cant believe it has a low rating. Its my favorite

Some bad moments

limport depuis computer ne fonctionne pas même en entrant ladresse IP de mon IPHONE suivi de :88 sur lordinateur. ne trouve pas ladresse. Doesnot work even when entering the IPHONE IP n° with :88 at the end on the computer . It says it doenot find the adress. PLEASE REIMBURSE !!

My lockbox crashed with all my data! I cannot find any support . These people have disappeared. This is not a serious application.

I am using Lock Box since several years and like it very much. Now I have bought Lock Box Pro in order to benefit from the proposed advantages. My real disappointment however is that the transfer the data from Lock Box to the Lock Box Pro doesnt work and I have to write everything down on a sheet of paper and punch it in again by hand. There was obviously no need to buy the upgrade.

I bought the pro version specifically to be able to import my passwords from a different device, but I cant see how to do this now. The import/export function always activates only the export web server. Am I the only one with this problem?

Only reason I bought the upgrade was because I had to restore my iphone. It does not imprt data! Save you money!!!

Generally Im reasonably happy with the app. The synchronizing is kinda old school but it works. I use the paid app but there is still a translucent grey band at the bottom of the screen that carries ads in the free version. Apparently paying doesnt get rid of it. There is nothing on the site about it. The link for the company doesnt work. There is no way to communicate. You may want to steer clear for these latter reason even though the app works. What would make me happy is an update that gets rid of the band, a search bar, improve the synching and an email address to hear from customers. Rick K. LIke others, I cant export my data to my mac, even with the workaround on their site. The ip is wrong in the app, but using the correct ip from the network you are on as they suggest doesnt work either. Dropping my rating from 3 to 2. I think they have just given up on the sw.
