Absolutely not! In fact, generated passwords aren't even stored on your device. No, not in the cloud either. They're not stored anywhere!

So, if you lose your iPhone or forget it, just open the app on your iPad, or borrow a friend's phone, and you're back in business. No backups or restores needed.

With Master Password, you remember one secure password and use that with the application to generate any password you might need. You could even generate PIN codes with it, if you wanted. Today, it's time to stop worrying about passwords and get on with what we need to get done.
