    If you are talking about online services, Proton is a Swiss option and for what it’s worth, Bitwarden offers an EU instance. Both are freemium OSS. You could also self-host Bitwarden. If you are looking for offline options, there are plenty. KeePass2 comes to mind.

      Thanks. I’m looking something which can be used on android + windows. I was using Proton apps from years and I don’t like them anymore; there’s little I can do as free user. I’m testing KeePassDX, don’t know is it good.

        I use the regular KeePass 2 and love it. It looks a bit oldfashioned but is a very powerful tool once you get used to it a bit. As there are plenty of addons you can also easily extend the standard feature set with further options.

        i use KeepassDX. its amazing and simple and I absolutely adore it.

        its going to be my password manager of choice going forward. i was able to set up my fingerprint unlocking as well. very convenient.

        highly recommend it.

          Hi. I’m testing keepassdx. I found something odd. Autofill seems doesn’t work because I need to search desired data in password base. Do you experienced something similiar?

            i just set it up with the fill settings in the app. hit the 3 lines, then settings, form filling, and then select default auto fill.

            you will have to enable it in phone settings to allow it to do so. but then you should be good to go.

    I know that Bitwarden is headquartered in California, but they do have Bitwarden.eu, which I would think is operating inside the EU?

      Even better, self-host Vaultwarden !

      • Works everywhere (android, iOS, linux, windows, macOS…)
      • TOTP
      • Works without connection and if the instance is offline.
      • Add notes, customize URI…
      • password/username/passphrase generator
      • …

      A lot more to it :)

        Bitwarden doesn’t have access to your data. This isn’t an issue. This is just jingoism because the best way to fight an absurd nationalist asshole is more nationalism

          agreed, if I didn’t trust the encryption, I would not use it. I am fine with bitwarden hosting my encrypted passwords, the store is accessible locally on each device, and I can self host with vaultwarden if bitwarden pull the free service. The features in bitwarden are good and sufficient, less awkward than alternatives I have tried.

            If someone is going through that trouble the same is true of your communication. Someone could record comms from you to bitwarden, watch as the app does it’s database sync, and record it for later decryption. But the same is true of your KeePass unless you only sync by hand on a private network.

      In essence keepass is an open database format and a bunch of different software tools have been written to interact with it. You can quite happily share the same keepass database between different software, e.g. synced between desktop and mobile

      The tldr is if you’re on windows, use keepass base. It has every feature anyone would want and plugins for the rest. It’s basically perfect.

      If you’re not on windows, keepass xc is great, but Id think of it as like keepass’ most used features, but less customizable and less absurdly complete.

      Android has several the one I use is from fdroid and it’s offline-only. Several out there have sync systems, but I use syncthing.

      keepassxc is for desktop and keepassdx is for android and ios(?)

      there is also keepass 2 but that has some vulnerabilities, as i understand

        Keepassdx is sadly not on ios.

        The only good one I’ve found is called strongbox. Free version works fine, but the pro version prices are insanity for something that is free everywhere else. I could get behind a lifetime buy of $10, but for $99 hell no. (Monthly sub is $3 or $25/year).

        Looking at the app store now, most of the keepass apps have some form of in app purchace.

        Only truly free one is call keepass touch, but frankly when I tired it, it sucked.

          what about keepassium? I’ve used strongbox’s free version and really liked it - only face ID support is missing from the free version. Keepassium has face ID support, but only for one keepass database.

          Now, I use Keepassium for my main password database and strongbox for all others. The master pw for the other databases is stored in the iOS local password store which of course supports face ID. So for me strongbox works with face ID, but with an extra step.

            Thats a nice work around lol.

            I haven’t tried keepassium. My main device is an android, so the IOS search was brief and focused on ones that didn’t say “in-app purchases”.
