An editorial reading of the saved reviews
A KeePass-compatible password manager with an open database format, Wi-Fi sync, and security key support. Quality declined after a change of ownership: previously hidden bugs have become more frequent, and upgrade prompts now chase even Pro users.
Screenshots
What people use it for
Technically savvy Apple users who want an open database format and prefer not to rely on a cloud service.
What reviews praise
Open KeePass format (no lock-in), solid iCloud sync, Yubikey and passkeys support, autofill, export to standard formats, lifetime license.
What reviews complain about
Quality has slipped since the app changed hands: crashes on database open, upgrade pop-ups for Pro users, passkeys issues (crashes on save), cross-platform purchases don't sync across devices.
What users experience
1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
I've been using this app for a few years now, and even bought the lifetime license. It's been great, except for passkeys. For some reason this app breaks whenever I try to save passkeys from every one of my iOS apps to my db (it both fails to save the key and crashes upon retry).
