Palm Keyring—A Simple Password Safe

Palm Keyring will read and write database files produced by the original Keyring for Palm OS application. It lets you securely store secret information with only a single master password to remember. Use it to store passwords, online logins, account numbers or anything you want to store securely.

When I laid my old trusty Palm Pilot to rest and switched to an Android device I easily replaced all of the old Palm applications except for Memo and Keyring. I replaced Memo with Rdex using Dropbox for synchronization. For Keyring I ported KeyringEditor by Markus Griessnig to Android. KeyringEditor is based on Java Keyring v0.6 by Frank Taylor. I have also updated KeyringEditor to make it a little more user friendly. It is a Java-based application that runs on Windows, Macs and Linux. It also supports synchronization between Java systems and Android using Dropbox.

Palm Keyring is for anyone who wants to continue to use a Keyring for Palm OS database file. Anyone starting a new database file may want to consider KeePass, a more recent password safe application that also has an Android version.
