The first time you run Pod Secret, you will need to click the "Agree" button on the end user license agreement. If the application has not been registered, a splash window will appear, giving the user a chance to purchase a registration. This window does not affect the operation of Pod Secret and will go away after the application has been purchased.

Great care has been taken to ensure that Pod Secret's data is cross platform compatible. This means one can store both the Windows version and the OS X version in the same folder and both platforms can can share the data (not at the same time). Copy the Windows executable, OS X executable, and the Pod Secret data file onto an iPod or thumb drive and no matter which type of computer you have access to, your data is accessible.

In order to use Pod Secret, one first needs to select a user. If no users currently exist or if you wish to add a new one, choose "Add New User..." from the Selected User pop up menu. If you are adding a new user, a unique user name must be entered and password confirmed. Upon selecting a user, the user's password will need to be verified.
The "Filter Selection" allows the user to display subjects that have been categorized so that one does not need to view all items in the summary box at once.
Click the "New" button. Select a category for the item you wish to enter. If there are none or you wish to add a new one, choose "Add New/Edit...". Enter the category name and click the "Add" button. Click "Close" and choose the category. Enter the subject for your entry, "checking account" for example. In the message section, type "My checking account number is: 1234567". Now click "done".
You will see your original screen with your new entry. To view it or edit it, select the entry and click on the "View/Edit Entry" button. Clicking the "Done" button will save any changes that were made, and "Cancel" will simply return you to the previous screen.
If you wish to delete an entry, select it and click the Edit menu and choose "delete entry". Confirmation will be required.
Entering and deleting entries is that simple, and all data is stored using strong Blowfish encryption.
Either the summary list may be printed by selecting File->Print, or the entry may be printed by viewing its details and selecting the print option.

By default, Pod Secret sets the security timeout for four minutes. This means that each time a user is selected and the password is verified, the application will remain active for 4 minutes. Once that time is up, the application resets to its launch state and is re-locked. This time limit can be changed by editing the preferences (Edit->Preferences on Windows, and Pod Secret->Preferences on OS X). This time change will take effect at the next login.
A user can also change their password by selecting "Change Password..." from the Edit menu.

In order to check for a new version of Pod Secret, simply start the application click on the Help menu and choose "Check for update...". When the update window appears, click the Check Now button. If a new version is available, a prompt will appear asking if the user wishes to download the new version.

The preferred method of purchasing Pod Secret is to choose "Purchase Registration" from the Help menu. The secure transaction eSellerate window will appear taking the user through the steps of entering their credit card information. Upon successful completion, the product will be registered.
If a purchase is made via the eSellerate web store, your serial number will be provided for you at the end of your purchase. You will need to click on the Help menu and choose "Manual Registration..." Enter the information and wait for Pod Secret to verify the information with eSellerate.
Payments are also accepted via PayPal for user convenience. However, this requires manual intervention on Pariahware's part and may take a day or more for your registration information to be sent to you. Using one of the above eSellerate options is strongly encouraged.

The Pod Secret mantra is "Encrypted Data -- On the go!"
When you are on the go your private data shouldn't be on a computer that can be stolen. Keep it safe by copying the "Pod Secret" and "Pod Secret Data" files to removable media such as an iPod or thumb drive. When you need to access your sensitive data, just plug the device into a computer, and your information is at your fingertips.
In Pariahware's testing, running off of a standard hard drive yielded the best performance. However, when considering one being "on the go", the iPod offered the next best performance, followed by USB 2.0 thumb drives. While using the thumb drive on a USB 1 port, we grew hair in places we never thought of, but it did work. (ie: We do not recommend USB 1 ports, but if the need arises, it is an option.)
