What is pwclip?

pwclip

So, let's talk about pwclip. If you’re on the hunt for a password manager, you've got tons of options out there—both cloud-based and local. But if you're looking for something straightforward without all the bells and whistles, this might just be the ticket!

Why Choose pwclip?

pwclip is super easy to use. It runs quietly in your system tray, letting you store your login info in one or more vaults. You can grab what you need right from that tray context menu without any fuss.

Vaults Made Easy

You don’t even have to worry about making multiple vaults if you don’t want to! But hey, if you do, each vault is locked with its own password. This password stays in memory until you close the program, so it's always secure while you're using it.

Organizing Your Accounts

When you're adding accounts, organizing them into sub-menus is a breeze! For example, if you type Softpedia:Test, it will create an entry called Test under the Softpedia sub-menu. However, keep in mind that sorting entries isn't an option right now—definitely something to think about.

Easily Access Your Passwords

Add your accounts and then copy any password with just a few clicks! Just go to the Recall Entry sub-menu, find what you need, and it gets copied to your clipboard for 10 seconds (you can change that time too!).

The Quick Recall Feature

If you're in a hurry, there's a Quick Recall feature where all you have to do is click on the tray icon and type in the name of your entry. Simple as that!

Password Generator Basics

This tool includes a basic password generator. Now it’s not super fancy—it has limited customization options—but hey, it gets the job done when needed!

Your Data's Security

Your passwords are kept safe as they’re stored in an SQLite file. They get encrypted using AES-128 with a strong 256-bit key that comes from your vault password using salted PBKDF2-SHA256 methods. Just keep in mind that while entries are encrypted with random IVs, their names aren’t.

The Bottom Line on pwclip

In summary, pwclip offers a simple way to manage your passwords without being overwhelming. It may not have every feature under the sun but it’s lightweight and easy to navigate. Check out pwclip here for download!
