I'm actually looking for an app that can store my login info and passwords. I don't need a browser extension.. or autofill type thing.

Thanks!

Keychain can also be used for secure storage of non-browser passwords and other info you want to keep secure. You'd open and log into Keychain Access, and use the "+" to add new info.

It's not as easy to use as the paid apps, but the price is right.

While not free, 1Password, I think its worth the price. If you still want free, the Lastpass is good.

1password, and also wallet; both great apps (am currently using wallet on my mac and my iphone...)

If you're talking about the Acrylic's "Wallet" I would not suggest using it since it is more or less no longer being updated by the developer (he now works for Facebook). At the very least I wouldn't suggest moving to it over the many alternatives that are still being actively developed every day.

We see a lot of customers of ours who are moving away from Wallet and it's a bit of a pain to do.
