eWallet for Android?

I am a little suspicious about installing and using certain apps. Many state that they have full access to the phone and internet, meaning they can send all of my personal information elsewhere...and in an e-wallet application, that can be devastating. A goldmine for ID theft criminals... learn some code, and write an e-wallet application. Make it free and watch the information roll right in!

Can b-wallet be trusted? They are based in Spain and Bulgaria. Not much information out there about them.

Splash ID looks great and legit, but $30 is a ridiculous price for this software. $10 maybe for both desktop and phone.

I was a long time eWallet user and contacted them recently because they don't have Android or WebOS clients. They said that they have no plans to create anything at this time for other platforms.
Seems like they are not doing well these days. I looked at Splash ID and while it seems okay, they way they license desktop software is insane and I hear that databases are not compatible with other version of their software so if you get a new phone you'd be out of luck.
I am now using CallPod's Keeper. It is very simplistic which I hate but it works with most major phones and desktops (PC & Mac, etc) I run it on my iPhone and Android.

Having used eWallet for a long time, on all platforms (pc, iphone, winmo), I hope they make ewallet for android soon.

Otherwise I have to find a new password program as well...

If enough people mail them, they must sooner or later make an android version :)

Otherwise I recommend lastpass(.com). Not ecsactly the same as ewallet, but really good. However, it requires internet access...

I am actually hoping for SPB Wallet to made for Android. SPB did announce Mobile Shell for Android so I am hoping they are gonna port more of their software library over as well.

I've been hassling Illium for ages about this, they don't seem interested in the slightest :(

**EDIT** Hang on, Splash actually charge you more if you buy the desktop and phone client together than if you buy them seperate! How does that work!?!?!

+1 for KeePass.

It is OPEN SOURCE and it does not require internet connection.

And it has desktop app as well, which is good.

For this kind of app which we use to store "sensitive information", I cant easily trust any closed source app.

That's why I am heading to KeePass when I got my Android device (ordered).

Have you considered KeePass?

Open source, no internet access (internet access not requested in the manifest upon install) & has an open source desktop counterpart too!

I would like to introduce keywords like AES or encryption on this post. I have been looking on and off for days for an encryption package for Android and pretty much drew a blank, with a couple of notable exceptions. It was only through trying to find out more information about JointLogic (makers of B-Folders) that I stumbled upon this very useful discussion. I also deeply distrust the anonymity of these vendors. I am deeply sorry if I offend them, but these days we are used to look a gift horse in the mouth. JointLogic is trying to make us suspicious of Google with backdoors in their engine, yet we are supposed to trust an anonymous company in who knows where?

There only a few e-wallets that work on desktop as well as android. You can try the ripple wallet app, This wallet works on IOS, Android, and desktop. There are very few wallets offering these functionalities which makes, huge business opportunities to develop ewallet app that works on desktop and app.
