Quick Start
You don't need to read everything first. Start now — with the one piece of information that's caused you the most trouble to find.
Step 1: Open OMIMA
Visit omima.me (opens in a new tab) in your browser. Works on mobile and desktop — no installation required.
OMIMA is a PWA (Progressive Web App). On mobile, you can add it to your home screen for a native app experience.
Step 2: Create an Account and Set Your Master Password
Register
Create an account with your email. This email is only used for account recovery — no marketing.
Set a Master Password
Your master password is the root of your encryption key. It is never sent to OMIMA's servers — it's used only on your device to derive your encryption key.
Choose something you can remember but others can't guess. It doesn't need to be a random string — a meaningful phrase works well.
A lost master password means lost access to your encrypted data. OMIMA provides an SMS + self-declaration recovery path, but this only restores account access, not your encrypted content. Store your master password somewhere you trust.
Sign In
Once your master password is accepted, you're in. OMIMA starts empty — time for the first record.
Step 3: Add Your First Record
Start with the most painful one. Think of the last time you were stuck because you couldn't find something. That's what to add first.
Option A: Manual Entry
- Click "New Record"
- Select a type (Credential / Identity / Education / Insurance / Technical)
- Fill in the fields and save
You don't need to fill everything at once — you can always add more later.
Option B: Screenshot Import (Recommended)
If the information is in a screenshot, SMS, or email:
- Copy the screenshot to your clipboard (
Ctrl+Vor⌘+Vto paste) - OMIMA runs OCR to extract the text
- AI structures the fields and shows you the result
- Confirm or edit, then save
Screenshots are processed as temporary files. After you confirm, only the structured fields are saved — the original image is not retained.
Step 4: Find Records Later
Keyword search: Type a keyword in the search bar — e.g., "bank", "carrier", "insurance"
Ask naturally: The search bar also accepts plain-language questions:
- "Which email do I use for my bank login?"
- "What's my carrier service PIN?"
- "My child's school portal password"
Sensitive fields (passwords, ID numbers, etc.) are masked by default (●●●●●). Click to reveal.
