To make your master password very powerful, that is set some important and interesting choices. Keep your database secure.  You can activate uppercase, lowercase, number, minus, underline, spaces, special, and brackets. To use as the primary password to access the database, and set the length of the main password as you wish.

You can also enable to use a key file other than the master password, to access the database.   After you have successfully logged in to select the key file, then select the file you want to use. For example, I choose a file / image to use as a key file. Click one of the images, and finish. The key file is the password stored in a file, and the key file is stronger than the main password. because the key becomes much more difficult and complicated. **Conclusion** I have been using the Keepas2Android Password Safe application for a while now.

If you keep your database in the cloud, do not keep the key file there as well, because it is completely useless. And do not change the contents of the key file after you create the database.
