App Review: aMemoryJog Password Manager App

Today’s app review is for the aMemoryJog password manager app. If you’re like me, you probably have tons of information that you use from time-to-time that are important yet easy-to-forget. Stuff like account numbers, WiFi codes, loyalty account numbers can be put into aMemoryJog and you can whip out your phone and quickly find any information.

What the aMemoryJog Password Manager App Is

First, full disclosure. Unlike the other apps on the Cool Apps section of this blog, I designed and created the aMemoryJog  password manager app so this review may seem a bit biased. However, I created the app because I wanted a more affordable way to store easy-to-forget info, so on with the review.

The aMemoryJog  password manager app is all about securely organizing information that’s easy-to-forget. For example, we have a storage unit where we store some stuff for a house we are building. The code to enter the storage unit is long and is not memorable. I put that code into aMemoryJog and when I am at the unit, I simply whip out my phone to recall it.

Using it for storage codes is just an example. I use it for tracking VIN and tag numbers for my automobiles, banking codes, software license codes and much more. I use it so much, I wrote a blog about how using it is like using a Swiss Army knife.

My son is in college and he swears by it — he uses it to track all his passwords and school information. Lots of others like it as well, about 1,000 new users come on board every month.

aMemoryJog - Best Password Manager for iPhone

One the coolest features is that it works as an app for the iPhone but also has a web edition so if you are at your computer, you can quickly pull up your information using your web browser. But if you’re away from your computer, you can pull out your phone and see the same information because it seamlessly syncs together.

Who Made aMemoryJog

Yours truly made the aMemoryJog password manager app under my company name Flip Flop Software. Hey, I live at the beach and rarely wear shoes so my company is aptly named.

Why aMemoryJog is Awesome

I wanted to offer an alternative to the big password managers (you know them: 1Password, Dashlane, Keeper, etc.). Those are all great apps but here’s how aMemoryJog is different:

  • There is a totally free edition that works well for lots of people. The free edition is not limited by the number of items than can be stored, however, it does not sync with the web edition unless you purchase the paid edition.
  • The competitors tend to get pricey. If you decide to purchase the aMemoryJog iPhone edition, you get a free 1-year subscription to the web edition. Likewise, if you buy a 1-year subscription to the web edition, you get the iPhone edition for free. The competitors normally charge you for the web edition separately and the cost is normally much higher.
  • The aMemoryJog password manager app has a recycle bin, so if you mistakenly delete an item, you can restore it. None of the competitors have that feature.
  • The aMemoryJog password manager app has a remote self-destruct feature. God forbid, what if your iPhone gets lost or stolen, you will probably be sweating someone getting into your password manager. With aMemoryJog, if that happens, you just log into the web edition and set it to automatically wipe out the aMemoryJog data on the iPhone (which you can later restore if you buy a new phone). Pretty cool stuff.

#ArticleOfTheDay: 6 Qualities That All Great Leaders Exhibit (by Lily Jenkins)

Today’s article was written by Lily Jenkins, she nails the qualities of a great leader. A lot of people believe that leadership is a naturalized trait given at birth. I don’t really subscribe to that idea. Sure, some people innately have leadership skills and some are more extroverted than others. But leadership skills can certainly be learned — I’ve mentored many leaders during my time in the corporate world and it is very satisfying to see leadership skills take form and grow.

I don’t want to steal Lily’s thunder but my favorite quality she listed is “Great leaders pave the way for others to succeed“. Ready to read the entire article?  Alrighty, here it is: 6 Qualities That All Great Leaders Exhibit (by Lily Jenkins).

#AppOfTheDay: Shopping List Free (Grocery List)

Today’s App of the Day is Shopping List Free (Grocery List) by Hensoft. I don’t know about you, but before going to the grocery store, I like to make a list and check off the list as I go. I used to do that with paper and pen but I find it easier to have it on my iPhone and check them off as I am shopping.

Once I started looking for a Shopping List app, I stumbled on to the Shopping List Free app. The app is free and it is very easy to use. Simply create a Shopping List, add items and as you are in the store, simply tap each item to check it off the list.

Once you are done, you can clear the check boxes to reuse the list again later. It also remembers all of the items in the list and you can create a new list from an existing one by selecting them instead of having to type them all in again.

#ArticleOfTheDay: Yeah, My Life is Awesome! I’m a Rock Star. You Should Take Notes (by Lesley Carter)

Today’s Article was written by Lesley Carter, a blogger that I have mad respect for. I have been following her blog for about a year now and reading about all of her travels to cool and unique destinations. Her blog is Bucket List Publications — at the beginning of each year she makes a list of bucket list items to check off by the end of the year. She normally completes her bucket list in the 4th quarter of each year.

Her latest blog was really inspiring. It unveiled raw emotions about her life, her struggles and how haters on the internet attempt to derail your happiness.

Without further ado, here is Lesley’s blog entitled “Yeah, My Life is Awesome! I’m a Rock Star. You Should Take Notes“: http://bit.ly/ZUbxF8

#ArticleOfTheDay: Stubborn Visionaries & Pigheaded Fools

Today’s Article was written by Jason Cohen, the entrepreneur that originally started SmartBear Software (the company that I sold my last software company to). Jason has such a great way of boiling complex topics down to their bare simplicity and often leaves you with a decision to make.

Today’s article is one of those. It explains some of the mental gymnastics all of us Entrepreneurs go through as we are trying to judge whether our decisions will pay off in the future. Sometimes it’s a crap shoot and you just have to know when to hold them and when to fold them.

Without further ado, here is Jason’s article entitled “Stubborn Visionaries & Pigheaded Fools“: http://bit.ly/1xdemff.

#ArticleOfTheDay: How to Charge your Phone with a 9 Volt Battery

I am always amazed by creative ways to solve life’s problems. In today’s Article of the Day, our #CrazyRussianHacker friend shows us how to charge our phone with a phone charger hooked up to a 9 volt battery.

I guess if you had your car charger with you, you would probably have the car as well and could use it but let’s just imagine you carry around your car charger and a 9 volt battery and your battery dies. Just hook it up to the 9 volt battery and charge away. Silly but cool.
