Not very impressed with the interface, overly clutterered and the icons' meanings are unclear until you move the cursor over them. Too much work to make the stored info useful. First, you have to click the website button, browser launches to website. Good as far as it goes. Then you have to go back into PasswordVault and click on the user button, switch back to your browser and paste into the user field. Then you go back to PasswordVault again, click on the password button, switch back to the browser again and paste into the password field. It's almost enough to make you think these folks don't realize you're using a computer that can automate the process.
For my money, PasswordWallet has a much better interface. The icon/buttons make sense. All your stored info is presented in a list rather than one at a time in a pop-up window, so you get to the info quicker. Launching the website for a password pre-loads the username and password at the same time so that a single keystroke inside your browser pastes both the username and password into the browser fields.

Thanks for your thoughtful comments. As a Password Wallet user myself I have yet to find another app that automates the login process as well. And you will have to admit Password Wallet is almost butt ugly but once you map the right number of tabs and returns to make autofill work on a particular web page it works with the single option keystroke thereafter. Still, I'm going to Password Vault's updates to see how things progress. The cross-platform and sharing options have me interested.Reply to This
