(Apple)

Five applications that will help you remember, organize and keep all your passwords safe on your iPhone.

1Password keeps your important passwords, login and sensitive information safe. You can use it to automatically log onto websites without having to type in usernames and passwords or to store sensitive notes, credit card information and membership numbers. The app is protected by a double password system and hardware-accelerated AES encryption. Users can backup, restore or sync their passwords with a desktop computer but will have to purchase a desktop program to do so.

mSecure - Password Manager
mSecure is one of the cheaper options for keeping all your sensitive information organized and safe. It uses 256bit Blowfish encryption and will automatically delete the information if someone steals your phone and tries to crack the password. Consumers can use one of the 17 pre-defined password category entries such as website logins, Credit Card numbers, Email Accounts or Frequent Flyer numbers or create their own customized entry types with unlimited fields. The app also enables you to sync your information over the air (but users have to buy the compatible desktop application)
