Founded by Alex Tischenko, Sticky Password is a tool to organize your passwords, auto-fill your forms, manage personal memos and perform other similar functions. In one word, it's a 'master login tool' for all your accounts including social networking sites.Getting started with Sticky Password
Sticky Password is available both in free and paid versions but you'll have limited access in the free version. So, it's better to get the Pro version for $29.99 to get complete access. However, it is advisable to use a 30 days trial version before buying it. Installing Sticky Password is as simple as installing a game on your PC. You will be asked to setup a master password to unlock whenever you open this tool. Once it is installed, wait for the tutorial to launch. It tells you everything in detail. You can bypass the login process of your web accounts and App accounts like Skype & MS Office Outlook by using this tool. Below is the screenshot of the tool where my accounts were added. 
During the setup, you'll be asked to install this tool on all your browsers. You can uninstall it later. You can add new accounts directly in Web Accounts section or when logging in. Sticky Password is not just storing your passwords. It does much more than that. It lets you automatically login to your accounts either directly from the tool or from the browser without having to enter your username and password. It delivered better outputs when we used those web accounts. You'll be asked to enter basic information like account name, target link, login name, password, auto-login and default browser. It warns you if your password is too weak i.e. if it is easier for an attacker to track your password. Quick Access section provides you a list of most used accounts so that you can access them without having to go for a search. You can perform most of the functions from Quick Access section. Surely, you'll have a bulk of web accounts and to avoid any confusion and make your navigation simpler & faster, you can categorize them under various groups like Finance, Email, Forums, Gaming and Social. You can even go beyond the ten default groups by adding your own group. Have a look at how App account appears.
App account, just like web accounts, allows you to directly access your apps like Skype, MS Office Outlook & Windows Live Messenger. However, the applications supported by Sticky Password are limited and include just a few popular apps. You can add new apps by dragging or browsing the available apps in your system's program files. This App account is not that helpful as the previous one due to its limited support. You can add those apps into your custom made groups in a single move. Adding Bookmarks is also an easy job. Just import all the passwords and bookmarks from your selected browsers via settings and this is again a by-pass to your favourite web address.
Adding Identity is a major task that you should complete if your forms need an auto-fill. Credentials like name, gender & company and all other personal details you enter here will be used by Sticky Password to fill forms automatically when needed in any website or browser. Finally, Secure Memos allows you to create memos under templates like Credit Card, ID card, Passport, Driving License, etc. You can use memos to copy specific or entire data so that you can paste it directly in any application or document without having to type everything. It is really useful when you have limited time to fill in your credentials in a document like MS Word. Though you don't categorize all your accounts, there is a search box on the top that displays the related search results as fast as Google search. Features of Sticky Password
