November 5, 2024 – New Feature: Securely Store Encrypted Passwords on Your Device
We’re excited to announce a new addition to LockBoxApp’s functionality—users can now save encrypted passwords with an alias on their device, enhancing accessibility while maintaining security. With this feature, you can encrypt your passwords and store them locally within your device’s storage (IndexedDB), making it easy to retrieve them anytime.
Please note: that this feature uses experimental local storage (IndexedDB) and is designed to support users needing quick access to securely stored data on their own devices. However, as this storage is experimental, we recommend continuing to use external password recovery or management systems for critical passwords. LockBoxApp cannot guarantee recovery of lost data due to limitations of local storage.
🎉 October 29, 2024 – Update: Enhanced Image Converter
Now Supports both: data and image Format! We’ve added a new capability to our Image Converter feature. Alongside converting between standard base64 and image formats, the converter now seamlessly handles images in base64 data and like image:
<img src='data:image/png;base64,....' />.
What’s New:Automatic Data URI Detection: Paste a data URI (starting with data:image/...;base64,) directly into the converter, and it will handle the cleanup automatically. Flexible Conversion: The converter now removes any extra HTML elements or characters (like />) for a smooth experience.
How It Works:Image to Base64: Upload any image, and it will be converted to a base64 string ready for embedding or use. Base64 to Image: Paste your base64 string, whether it’s standalone or embedded in a data URI, and convert it back to a downloadable image file. We’re always looking for ways to make the LockBox tools more user-friendly and versatile. Give it a try on our Image Converter page, and let us know what you think!
October 24, 2024 – New Feature: IP Geolocation Checker Now Live!
