Abstract

A method, electronic device, and computer readable storage medium, for secure context-aware management of passwords stored in a password manager application in an electronic device. The password manager application prompts for entry of a password at a first user interface to unlock display of sensitive information in a second user interface. A first portion of the sensitive information is displayed in a prioritized list in the unlocked second user interface, with the second portion of the sensitive information remaining user inaccessible, only while the password manager application is in a certain password access context based on contextual information in the electronic device. The contextual information can be any combination of a current geolocation of the device, a current time, an identification of an access point in a vicinity of the device, and other contextual information.
