What do you prefer to use for a password manager?
How well does it work on mobile? (specifically, using autofill on android 14)
I’m currently using Vaultwarden; but the android app, which is where I’m using it 95% of the time, has always been a bit flakey getting autofill to popup. Now it’s decided to stop working entirely; so I’m going to look around at some alternatives for now.
/edit:
Well, idk what happened.
I spent about 30min trying different things: switched androids autofill settings to another app, changed them back, cleared app data, force stopped everything relevant, re-installed bitwarden, restarted the device, messed with accessibility; nothing seemed to work. Bitwarden adamantly refused to popup for autofill in anything I’d tried. (4-5 different sites in chrome, firefox, and duckduckgo. The openvpn app, Jerboa, my bank. Nothing worked. Absolutely 0 sign of autofill anywhere.)
I made this post and went for a walk.
Now suddenly autofill is working again.
I hate technology sometimes.
/edit again:
The best option I’ve seen so far: There is an ‘autofill’ QuickSettings button you can add to the notification tray that opens the vault and asks which item to fill with. (just like the ‘open vault’ inline autofill option). If inline isn’t popping up, use that.
keepass
it’s technically no password manager but an encrypted file format.
there are dozens of apps that will work on any platform, including soft keyboard with “password” button for smartphone that will just work everywhere and browser extensions, static website, apps that allow you to use your yubikey to unlock and anything else. you can host your vault anywhere including a google drive or your own webdav or ftp server and keep local copies on your devices synchronized…
Wait so I use keepass too. Why is it not technically as password manager
i mean each of the individual programs that can load your keepass keyring is a password manager.
the keyring itself isn’t a password manager and the main reason why i use it is because each of the individual programs that i actually use to open it (keepassxc on windows, keepassdroid on my phone, keeweb hosted on my vps on other devices…) can use the same file with the same specification that is shared everywhere.
i’m not bound to any particular program with a particular set of features. just use anything that can open that file format from a place where i choose to host it.
Oh, I run the KeePass program on windows. I guess that’s why I’m confused.
But yes, I use keepassXC on Linux and keepassium on iOS
Its an encrypted keyring idk what they’re talking about
I believe they’re argueing, as it can store more than passwords, it’s not purely a password manager.
