Strong encryption for your passwords, PINs, credit cards and other sensitive information.
Secret! stores all your confidential data encrypted with a password of your choice.
* Easy-to-use, secure and robust. Continously developed and enhanced since 1997.
* Strong encryption with proven 128 bit IDEA algorithm
* Free text entry for maximum flexibility
* Special paragraph and TAN modes
* Synchronize with Secret! Desktop for Windows, MacSecret for Mac OS X, viewers for other platforms
* Available for Palm and Pocket PC handhelds
Secret! runs on all Pocket PC handhelds with Windows Mobile 2003, 2003 SE, and the current Windows Mobile 5.0. It also runs on Windows smartphones that run Windows Mobile (these devices have a touchscreen, and a Windows start icon in the upper left corner). However, it does not run on devices with Windows Mobile Smartphone Edition.
To install Secret! just download and run the Secret! setup program.
The first time you start Secret! you will have to define the new master password. As a precaution against typos, you must enter the new password twice.
If you have already stored data in Secret! and are reinstalling after a hard reset, enter the same password as you used before. ActiveSync will then prompt you to combine your Secret! desktop items with the handheld.
If you upgrade from a previous Secret! version, don't remove Secret! before you install the new version. This way your data will be preserved.
If you switch from Palm to Pocket PC, please refer to these instructions.
Your Password
Everything you store in Secret! is encrypted with a single master password of your choice. This password is used to encrypt and decrypt your data and only someone knowing this password can access your data. No back doors, no hidden weakness! If you forget your password, you will have deinstall and reinstall Secret! as there's absolutely no way to get to your data without knowing the password.
The password can be up to 24 characters long and may consist of letters, digits, and special characters. The password is not case-sensitive to avoid problems with accidental caps lock.
Whenever you start Secret! you are presented with an on-screen keyboard to enter your password. You can choose between a standard alphanumeric keyboard and a numeric keyboard (with extra large keys) if your password only consists of digits. The default keyboard can be set in the Options dialog. You can also enter the password with the standard Windows Mobile input methods (Transcriber, Letter Recognizer, Keyboard).
Changing Your Password
To change your password, enter your old password to access your data, then in the record list view, select Options - Change Password. To protect against typos, you have to enter the new password twice.
If you use Secret! Desktop, please synchronize during the password change. If you synchronize while you're not connected to the PC, and have modified desktop data, you may end up with a mix of old and new encrypted data. Secret! will detect records encrypted with an old password and will ask you to provide the old password to re-encrypt them.
Your Data
The Secret! data is stored in records and categories, similar to the built-in Notes application. Each record screen has the well-known Memo category/record style. You can create up to 15 categories and store an arbitrary number of records in each. One record can store up to 32,000 characters.
A press-and-hold context menu is available on the record list for the most common tasks.
You can store anything you like in Secret!, e.g. credit card information, accounts, on-line passwords, transaction numbers, one-time passwords and everything else that needs to be kept Secret! We've even heard of people storing their diary or birthday present lists in Secret!
You can search all records in Secret! by selecting Records - Search. A list of records which match the given search is displayed.
To avoid accidental changes to very important data you can mark records as read-only in the Options menu.. Read-only mode is indicated by a gray background.
You can search in the current record by selecting Record - Search. If more than one match is found, Next and Cancel buttons are displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Collapse Paragraphs Mode
To let you quickly navigate in long records on the small handheld screen, Secret! features a special paragraph collapse mode. If you select on Options - Collapse Paragraphs, all paragraphs (text blocks separated by an empty line) are collapsed to their first line. Tap on the plus (+) sign to the left of a paragraph to expand it into full view and on the minus (-) sign to collapse them again. The collapse mode is not available in Secret! Desktop (because the PC screen is usually large enough to see the whole text).
Note: You cannot change data in collapse mode. However, when you switch off the collapse mode, the cursor is put at the currently selected entry.
TAN/OTP Mode
Do you use transaction numbers (TANs) for online banking or other one-time passwords (OTP) for secure authorization? Secret! has a special built-in TAN mode that makes using TAN lists easier than ever.
Enter your list of TANs line-by-line into a standard record, then select menu Options - TAN mode to switch to TAN mode. Now you can use the TANs one-at-a-time. If a TAN is used, tap on the Delete button and the first entry will be erased from the list. You can undo the last removed entry. To prevent accidental changes, new TANs can only be entered in standard mode.
Used TANs are internally marked with an asterisk (*). You can always see the complete list of TANs by unselecting the TAN/OTP mode.
You can enter additional information below the TAN list, e.g. your account data. In normal mode, this text is separated from the TAN list by a single empty line.
If your bank uses the new iTAN scheme which requests TANs in arbitrary order, check the respective option in the Secret! Options and select the TAN to be removed from the list.
Options
To configure various settings of Secret! tap on menu Options - Preferences.
You can have Secret! automatically close the text screen and encrypt all data after a certain time of inactivity.
To increase security against someone trying various passwords, you can configure Secret! to erase all data after a certain number of wrong password attempts. If the data is deleted, it can only be restored by synchronizing with the desktop.
If your password consists only of digits you can choose to start Secret! always with the numeric keyboard screen. Note that this makes it easier for someone trying to break your password because they can assume that you use only digits.
Secret! can open your text screen automatically when you have completed your password, thus saving you the extra tap on OK. Note that this makes it slightly easier to guess your password because one does not need to know the length of the password.
For online banking: If your bank uses the new iTAN scheme which requests TANs in arbitrary order you can select the option Allow remove TANs out of order.
You can select a custom font for displaying the text, e.g. with a bigger/smaller size, or fixed width (Courier).
Backup
Data stored in Secret! is usually very important to you. Make sure you have a current backup available in case your handheld is lost or breaks down. The backup is always encrypted, so there is no danger if someone gets access to the file.
If you use Secret! Desktop, the provided ActiveSync component will store a synchronized copy on your desktop in the directory \My Documents\<devicename>-secret.dat (where <devicename> is the name of your ActiveSync partnership (default Pocket_PC).
If you do not use Secret! Desktop, you should include the internal database LinkeSOFTSecretDB in your handheld backup, or manually export all records as *.pdb files which can be imported by Secret! on all platforms.
There is also an option to automatically create an (encrypted) backup of all Secret! data whenever Secret! closes.
If you had to hard reset your device or otherwise lost your Secret! data simply reinstall Secret!, then confirm when ActiveSync asks you to combine Secret! data from your PC and your handheld.
