Ratings and reviews

I couldn't live without Codebook! I have all my passwords, PINs, sensitive info, there and I access it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY! It's very user-friendly, it has the capacity to store a ton of stuff, and guess what? When I changed my laptop and/or phone, I didn't have to pay again for it, I just used the key/phone credentials to reinstall it. Their customer support is outstanding, responds very quickly and basically answers all of you questions! I've been using it for more than a decade and I will keep on using it as long as I can! I don't know what else to say than I LOVE IT! Highly recommend it, since it's a great bang for the buck!

I have been a user of Codebook from back in the days of the S.T.R.I.P. app on Palm devices. Now I have it on my phone, a tablet and my laptop - with the ability to sync between them all. It has been invaluable for a couple decades. I always recommend it to family and friends. My wife has it on her iPhone and iPad, syncing between the two (and now she uses much safer passwords than she did in the past - a relief for me). The support is OUTSTANDING! Over the decades I've had a couple issues and they were always quickly resolved by the support team. And they keep adding features to it. I'm still a bit old-school, so I'm sure I'm not leveraging all the features to their fullest extent, like "the kids these days." If you're wondering if you should try it or buy it, you should go ahead. It'll more than pay for itself over the years.

Great app with awesome Zetetic support. What I like the most (besides password security, fingerprint sign in and syncing with multiple devices) is getting updates. Updates are the best - it's like getting new software for free. And with me being of questionable average intellect I would occasionally need some assistance with these updates. I would email asking for help and receive an answer in just a couple of hours. This is a rare find in the software world. Thank you Zetetic staff!!!
