A new update of the password app DotPass for iOS and macOS has been released today. This is mainly a maintenance update, bringing the app up to date with new macOS and iOS versions to ensure it keeps on working as it should in the future.

DotPass is not a pasword manager in the traditional sense, as it doesn't store or send your passwords or account details anywhere. Instead DotPass gives you a way to get unique good passwords for all your different accounts using combinations of words you can remember and a graphics pattern that serves as your secret key. In short, passwords you can get back if you need them again, without anything stored that can be lost or stolen.
