I also listen to a podcast concerning internet and computer security called "Security Now" by GRC.com: Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte. The current podcast (#347) outlines the security of the iOS version of SplashID.
Transcript: http://www.grc.com/sn/sn-347.htm
Under their analysis, it was revealed that SplashID's user's master password are encrypted under Blowfish using a FIXED key. That fixed key being "g.;59?^/0n1X*{OQIRwy."
Therefore, every user, regardless of their master password, has that master password encrypted using this one fixed key. This fixed key (now public) can easily be used to decode the user's master password, thus access the encrypted data. This makes SplashID's security worthless under its current incarnation. I'm frankly outraged.
There's no reason why SplashID shouldn't be generating a random, device-specific key. Other password managers do this!
I like SplashID. I like the way it looks and functions. I've got hundreds of passwords and personal financial information stored in it. My jaw dropped when I listened to Security Now's podcast.
Until SplashData fixes this blatant security hole, I will no longer be using your software. I am dumbfounded how a really obvious security flaw like this was overlooked!

Unfortunately, this product is lame for several reasons. first of all, the interface of this one is the polar opposite of 1Password's. If 1Password is gaudy and overkill this interface is austere and looks like it had never seen an interface designer with no attention to detail or refinement in layout, formatting of text in fields or any other aspect.
Furthermore, the Safari plugin runs only in 32-bit mode and this is months after Safari 5 was released. That says to me that the developer is either lazy or disinterested further development and doesn't deserve my money
The other thing that really get's me is that to truly use and test the app I need to buy the $10 iPhone application. Why not offer a limited free version like many developers do?
I suppose I'll settle on 1Password because there are no other options out there, I wish this developer would get their act together and update this app in the ways I mentioned but as it stands now it pales in comparison to 1Password and should be avoided.

Granted the browser feature is great, but the very limiting customization and import features of 1Password make it impossible for me to convert. With dozens of password entries in SplashID and equal that in software info from Bento, the manual time to make this transfer is not worth the features.
I agree SplashID looks like something from 2003, but it is VERY effective in collecting your data, protecting, categorizing, allowing customization and synchronization across desktop & mobile. I have no problems in getting to my info quickly yet securely.
In the end, that's why I got this password protection...regardless of how it looks.
