Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is my Data encrypted on the iPhone?
A: The RoboForm for iPhone Application downloads copies of your data files from RoboForm Online, which are the exact same format and level of encryption as your PC version of RoboForm uses. So if your PC version of RoboForm uses a master password, so will your iPhone version.

Q: Why is my RoboForm Online Account not being accepted when attempting to login?
A: You need to enter the username and password you use with RoboForm Online, or if you have not yet created an account there, you need to do so at https://online.roboform.com/signup and follow the instructions on how to sync your PC version of RoboForm with RoboForm Online at https://online.roboform.com/get-started

Q: Why does it say "There are no files on your account" when I try to sync?
A: In order to get RoboForm for iPhone to notice any changes, you first need to setup RoboForm on your PC to sync with RoboForm Online, otherwise your RoboForm Online account has no data files to download. Please follow the instructions on how to sync your PC version of RoboForm with RoboForm Online at https://online.roboform.com/get-started

Q: How do I perform one click logins?
A: To use RoboForm for iPhone to fill login forms, you need to open it and choose a Login from the list, and then click the "Login" button to initiate the one-click login process. Unfortunately RoboForm for iPhone cannot integrate directly with Safari itself outside of the RoboForm for iPhone App, but we have an integrated copy of Safari which can be used.

Q: How can I use RoboForm within Safari itself?
A: The RoboForm for iPhone App cannot be used with the "Safari" icon the iPhone home screen, which is due to how Apple controls "Apps" on the iPhone itself. No third party application can ever access the Safari App on the iPhone directly, it's not just us. The workaround we have is that we're allowed to "create" a browser that is the same as Safari, but within the RoboForm for iPhone Application. The way to access this is to select a Login and once it opens, click the "Login" button along the top. This will then complete a one click login to the website. Once you are done you can simply click the Exit button on the browser to return to RoboForm for iPhone.

Q: How can I fill forms from my Identities?
A: Currently RoboForm for iPhone only fills from Logins, however we do plan to add such functionality in a future release.

Q: Can I add Passcards/Identities/Safenotes or edit existing ones?
A: Unfortunately at this time the RoboForm for iPhone app is just a "reader" of your data files, as well as it fills forms from Logins. We do plan to add such functionality in the future.

Q: What is RoboForm and how do I use it on my iPhone or PC?
A: RoboForm saves your login (username, password, etc) information into a "Passcard" when working with the RoboForm Desktop version. This also has the ability to "Sync" to our RoboForm Online server, which then can propagate your data files to your iPhone using the RoboForm for iPhone application. The RoboForm for iPhone Application does allow for One Click Logins, which means you would select an item in RoboForm for iPhone, and choose "Login" which would then open an embedded web browser within the application, navigate to the website and fill and submit the login for, completing a fully automated login process directly on the iPhone.
