Akick Password Safeguard

Regardless of whether or not your passwords are easy to remember, the mere fact that they are different for each account – since we all know this is what it should be like – puts a strain on any user’s memory.

However, software utilities that can neatly organize and remember all these passwords come by the hundreds on the market, with Akick Password Safeguard being one of them. Let’s see if it manages to stand out from the crowd.

As already mentioned, the application’s purpose is quite straightforward since it can act as a safe database of all sorts of sensitive data you wouldn’t want to bother with. While its GUI may not be eye-catching or at least customizable in any way, it does ensure a smooth interaction.

The way the program handles your passwords is quite simplistic: you need to select a category to store them into, then type in all the necessary details.

While there is a dashboard packing all said categories, you can also access any of them by clicking its name at the top of the main window. Personal, social, and bank accounts can be remembered by the tool, with a fourth class being aimed at other kinds of accounts.

When saving a password, you need to indicate a username, an email address, with an optional description field being provided as well. Depending on the type of password, the social platform or website it is dedicated to, the account number, the bank, or your mother’s maiden name are details you have to specify for a comprehensive database, which, it must be mentioned, can pack an unlimited number of entries.

What’s more, the software utility can store personal folder details, while also being able to lock files or entire directories, with the possibility of reversing the process as well.

Needless to say, for data protection, a master password must be indicated, with the encryption technology the program resorts to ensuring the content you type in remains inaccessible to intruders.

On an ending note, Akick Password Safeguard is a simplistic app that can manage all your accounts and the associated passphrases in a lightweight environment. While it only comes with basic features, without the possibility of importing or exporting your database, it is an approachable solution that would probably benefit especially users who are not that tech-savvy.
