The more our mobile phones become a repository for our digital lives the more the protection and backing-up of irreplaceable photos and videos becomes an area of concern.
Phone and tablet manufacturers offer a 4-digit pin but this is rarely engaged, easily forgotten - and when the most common password is 1,1,1,1, is not exactly secure.
Developers Revolutionary Concepts (creators of the european runner-up Apple iPad GOTY 'Gesundheit!') and Collect3 ('Picture Safe','Video Safe' as used by 2 million iPhone users) set out to improve this by creating a new application that uses a system of photos and touch gestures as an elegant solution to password protection and backing up of your private content.
Creating a Photo Password is as simple as choosing a photo from your library.
Draw 3 shapes anywhere on the image.
Redraw to verify... and you are done!
Photo Password records the Position, Shape, and Direction of your gestures to create a unique secret password that is very easy to remember, but with literally tens of millions of possible combinations, is almost impossible for others to guess!
To outsiders the app shows a single generic photo of your choosing, but would be intruders are in for a surprise, as Photo Password even records attempted break-ins.
For mobile phone users who are worried about privacy, have nosey co-workers or inquisitive friends, have young children, or are super villains with secret plans for world domination, Photo Password offers peace of mind, and a superior Photo and Video browsing experience.
Coming to the AppStore 12 th March.
