The interface is beautifully simple: You can add an entry that contains a title, username, password, URL, and a note. I’m going to say now that Pastor doesn’t have any of the fancy features that 1Password has, but it has the essentials: password storage and encryption. 1Password is definitely the most recommended password manager of them all, as it supports categories, cross-platform syncing, and browser extensions. If you’ve been reading much about security recently, you know that everyone is saying to never reuse any passwords, and to use a password manager to keep track of all of them. Enjoy!
