  • Room is an Android persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite, making it easier to manage and access encrypted data.
  • By storing passwords in a secure database locally on your device, we add an extra layer of protection to your sensitive information, minimizing the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access.

• Room Database:

  • Our application utilizes a secure Room database to manage encrypted passwords locally on your device.
  • Room is an Android persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite, making it easier to manage and access encrypted data.
  • The use of Room ensures efficient and reliable storage of passwords, with built-in features such as data validation and query optimization.
  • By storing passwords in a secure database locally on your device, we add an extra layer of protection to your sensitive information, minimizing the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access.

• Intuitive User Interface:
