Password Genie offers a convenient and safe solution to save and manage your login information and passwords. The program can be a good choice for those of us who tend to forget the multiple usernames/passwords used to login to all the websites we usually visit. The program stores your authentication details into a neat, password-protected database.
When you first run the program, it will bring up a window to create a Master Account, where you will enter your details and a master password to access your saved information. It will also offer you the option to import the passwords and login information saved in your web browsers.
Password Genie integrates with most browsers: Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Internet Explorer. Every time you login into a site that is not saved into the database, the program will detect your authentication details and will offer you the chance to store them, so you don't need to type them again. Your details will be stored into the "Saved Websites" section, each item showing the website icon and a site preview. I liked that the program also lets you create groups in order to keep your saved websites organized.
As a plus, the application includes a password generator to create secure, undecipherable passwords. Another handy feature is 'unmask your password', which does exactly that, reveals the characters hidden behind asterisks.
To sum up, it is a complete password manager with a good set of features that allows you to keep your login information safe.
