Any iOS alternatives? Couldn’t find either of these in the App Store.
Bitwarden has been working well for me on iOS. It’s a paid feature though. $10 a year I think
+1, well worth the 10 bucks.
Bitwarden has a 2fa function?i didn’t know it. But I don’t fully trust online apps for storing passwords though. A server can always be exploited
Bitwarden uses end to end encryption. This severely reduces the risk their infra is attacked. The encryption keys exist on your devices only so it’s impossible to read the server side data.
The only real question is how much you trust Bitwarden as a company. Are they completely lying about E2EE to customers and auditors? If not, then Bitwarden is a good choice.
Oh and ya, it’s has a one time passcode function. Works great! It will even autofill into OTP fields… sometimes 🙂
Bitwarden has TOTP in their premium plans, otherwise check https://ente.io/auth
iOS has terrible choices when it comes to privacy and/or Open source. Apps that put control into the users hands are in direct conflict with Apple, and many times from what I know certain software licenses have issues getting approved there. See if Raivo is still around (may be spelled wrong).
Check out Techlore as well for recommendations across the board, before he went to a Pixel he ran an iPhone for a while and had a decent list of stuff for them IIRC.
You’re right about Apple. I hope the EU will force openness into the ecosystem. I’m also hopeful that open and free alternatives will continue to become more viable in terms of user experience; the switch to Lemmy from Reddit has been mostly painless.
Thanks for the recommendations.
Edit: Raivo is perfect for a dedicated Authenticator app in the Apple ecosystem. I’ll likely pay for Bitwarden instead as I want to support their great product.
