Write Yes in comment section if this is you:

  • Using same password for every app, web or mail
  • Adding a "1" or and "!" at the end of every password when a website ask you to change it
  • Frantically hitting "Forgot Password?" every time when you log in

You are not alone. But what if I tell you that there are some tools that create and save your password

  • Create 20-character passwords like Xp$2!8qG#mL9wRz&Dv3**
  • Remembers them for you
  • Auto fills your logins on websites and app
  • And you only need to remember only one master password

Sounds like interesting? That tool is called password manager. There are many available you can you.
