Little backstory. I work as android developer, have lots of passwords and trust issues. I wanted an app where I can store my passwords locally, no cloud sync, accounts, etc. Basically a very simple and easy to use app without the fancy features of today's world. I also wanted to improve my proficiency with Android’s recommended modern toolkit for building native UI - Jetpack Compose. This is how the idea for Password Guard (Offline) was born.

I am aware that there are tens if not hundreds of similar apps that offer more or less the same functionalities. Why should anyone switch or use this brand new app instead of a well known and trusted one that does the same things and perhaps even offers more? A solid question. They shouldn't. Especially when we are talking about sharing secrets in an app created by an internet stranger. However, there are passengers for every train and if you would like explore something new then you are welcome to try out Password Guard (Offline). Here is some info about it.

The app operates without the need for internet, does not require any sensitive or unnecessary permissions, does not require an account to use, has no ads, does not collect and share any data, encrypts and stores everything locally on the device and has some neat features like backup/restore, a password generator and more. It gives total control of its contents over to the user. There is a free and a paid version. The paid version has everything, the free version has the main features but lacks few of the neat ones I mentioned above and has some limitations.

Anyway, here are the two versions. Feel free to try them out if you are interested. I will appreciate any feedback that you can give me. Also, I am happy to share more if you have any questions.
