BEDFORD, Mass. – October 19, 2010 – Bare Bones Software today announced the release and immediate availability of Yojimbo™ for iPad 1.0, a companion app to Yojimbo 3.0 (also announced today, see related release).

Yojimbo for iPad stores all types of items contained by Yojimbo 3, including notes, passwords, bookmarks, serial numbers, PDFs, images and web archives. The app also handles encrypted data from Yojimbo 3 using the secure AES-256 algorithm standard.

“Yojimbo for iPad 1.0 marks the company’s entry into the iOS software market,” said Rich Siegel, founder and CEO of Bare Bones Software. “Yojimbo for iPad represents our endeavor to create the effortless, reliable experience for having your Yojimbo info with you on the iPad. At the same time, Yojimbo for iPad is every bit a well-polished iPad app.”

Yojimbo for iPad supports all types of Yojimbo collections: smart, tag, and manual, and allows instant information retrieval through its built-in search.

The app can sync information from Yojimbo 3 on the desktop when both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network. After initial set-up, Yojimbo for iPad will automatically sync from the desktop while it remains open, or when the app is launched.
