The SplashID Palm Pre app is a utility to store private data such as passwords, credit card numbers, and banking details. It acts as a secure password manager and this application will prompt you for a master password when you want to open it on your Pre. The app allows you to set various fields that are searchable and identifiable by you, and you can decide whether you want each field to be visible or not. So you can mask whatever fields you like, and there are more than one for each entry. The app offers search-as-you-type.

The first time I launched the app, it froze for a few seconds before it allowed me to move forward – I wasn’t able to reproduce this even after uninstalling and installing it again so it’s probably no big deal. The app is still in its early stages in other respects as well. There is little ability to customize search parameters for instance – the search will always only parse the first of the many fields. There’s really no way to export your information from the Pre, so backups are out of the question for now. Perhaps an update will provide this much-needed functionality.
