Cryptical 4+

I’m rating this app highly because this is the ONLY developer who took the time respond to explain why they ask for ratings when you are trying to use the app. This was infuriating because most times I’m rushing to get something important done. The developer graciously took the time to explain and how to control these surprise attacks. I give high praise for their work and their efforts.

Now to actually review the app. Spectacular! That is the most appropriate description imho. For a novice user, I love this app. It’s simple to use and generates awesome passwords. They have fields to fill out so you remember which accounts the passwords are used for as well as other pertinent information you need to access your accounts.

My only hope is that their security to fend off hackers is as awesome as their app! Nobody needs hackers to get into their password vault.

Hey, unfortunately app discoverability very much depends on ratings. If I don’t prompt for a rating, most people don’t rate the app in their own. Since I’m not the only one using this functionality, you may want to disable it completely if you’re annoyed by it. The setting is in the iOS settings: Settings ➞ App Store ➞ In-App Ratings & Reviews.

I downloaded this app to generate simple passwords. The program does exactly what it says. I got this program because I grew tired of my old password generator,l that continually popped up ads when I was just trying to generate a password. While I have not seen any pop-ups from this app yet, I did see there was an in app purchase label in the App Store. I wish the developer would be clearer in the program description as to what the in app purchases were for. I would pay a small fee for this kind of app just to not be bothered by in app purchases. Thank you to the developer for developing a straightforward app.

Hey, thanks for your review! All features of Cryptical are completely free. The in-app purchases are for optional tips. If you like the app, you can tip me a few bucks (you can find this in the settings). It’s entirely optional though - no strings attached. I will add that information to the app’s description on the next update.

When generating a passwords by batch, it won’t match the assigned number of characters you chose. For instance, if I wanted to assign a batch of just 1 password with 10 characters, after counting I would count only about 8 numbers/letters. I don’t know what detention the dev uses for “characters” but even after setting a batch password to 1 batch with 5 characters, I would get “ '!sa/((Z” minus the quotes. This is 7 characters from what I see. So I don’t know how exactly they define “characters”.

Now if you go to the main page of the app and generate a password there and choose let’s say 10 characters , the password that’s generated in real time will be 10 characters. So this might be a bug in the batch editor.

Hey, I tried to reproduce your problem, but it's working fine for me. In the batch generator interface, you need to set the "length" parameter to the numbers of characters you would like your passwords to have. I just tested this in various configurations, and it always produced the correct length. There is also a preview which shows exactly what kind of password you're going to get in the end. Remember that the settings on the main screen have no influence on the settings of the generator - they are intentionally kept separate. If you still have issues with this, please send me an Email and we will look at the problem together: support@fouquet.me. Thanks.
