Greetings. I’m pleased to engage in dialogue with the developers of this important product. [image] Keepassium used to be listed (I think), should I now prefer alternatives? Constructive criticism is welcome for sure. Otherwise how would anyone improve. I would like to take this opportunity …

The version from the app store is sandboxed mostly, except for the “Open and Save Panel Service”. I’ve been using the iOS version on my mac for a while and it’s fine except there are no keybindings for copying usernames or passwords.

Some other user feedback from prior discussions and internet discussions which I will compile here for consideration: [image] Keepassium used to be listed (I think), should I now prefer alternatives? Following the earlier conversation on this thread, I chose Strongbox. Though, I continued collec…

For a single database/vault, it does exactly what you’d expect from a password manager and can pull the vault out of anything that’s in Files as far as I can tell, so you can use e.g., Nextcloud to keep your d…

It’s worked well in my experience. The only issue I face is that autofill doesn’t work when using a Yubikey in challenge-response mode.

Looking at Keepassium I’m very impressed. It’s a native Swift app, very sleek and easy to use. They are available on the App Store and use the app sandbox, they don’t seem to disable any security features like toggling on JIT. Uses encryption and the OS key store to protect your passwords, implemen…
