Description: 1Password is an app, that allows for one to store their passwords in one place. This comes in handy if you have multiple passwords instead of 1 common password, or just have trouble remembering that alpha-numerical combination. It can store other items in addition to logins, including secure notes, credit cards, and identities (passport, drivers license, etc). It is my pleasure to announce that you are able to have cross-syncing between all your devices, so that your passwords are in as many places as you need.

Download it, try it, or forget it?: DOWNLOAD IT! (Click previous text to go to 1Password website)

In General: This app is wonderful even just for the every day user. It has been a great addition to my suite of 67 iPhone apps. It is useful in everyday life, as I for one have multiple passwords, so therefore, it makes sense. As a teacher, one is too busy to be thinking about passwords, and as a student, I should be studying my biology notes instead of changing my passwords so I can remember them. With 1Password, I can study my biology notes and remember my passwords at the same time.

Tutorial: Feel free to check out the TechXpert tutorial on how to add a password to your 1Password vault. It is attached below, as well as on the NCHSTechXpert YouTube channel.
