Any suggestions for a password manager app?

I currently have MiniKeePass on my iPhone and although it does the basic job of storing passwords, I don't have the ability to create random passwords from the app itself and sync the changes to Dropbox.

I'm looking for a subscription-free iOS app that had a clean, modern and beautifully designed UI.

Any suggestions?


Solution 1:

I use 1Password which is available for macOS (AppStore or directly from AgileBits), iOS, Windows and Android and offers both requirements you've listed (random passwords and Dropbox syncing).

Solution 2:

KeePass is a free, open source, and cross platform password manager, which has the benefit that your password file can be used on multiple devices (Linux, Windows, OSX, iOS and Android). I usually use DropBox to sync the password database between my devices.

Unfortunately the official binary on OSX required an X Server, which made it awkward to use compared to it's competitors.

Fortunately there is MacPass, which is a native port of KeePass for OSX. While it's not as well known as 1Password, it is however free and open source, meaning that you can (potentially) check it's source code, if you don't believe it's secure enough, or contains hidden backdoors.

Also since it's a KeePass port, it can open and edit your MiniKeePass files as well.

Solution 3:

OS X and iOS come with Keychain built-in. The passwords are automatically synced between your Mac and iOS device. You can access the passwords on both.

I've used a number of the password managers mentioned in the comments, even the insanely overpriced 1Password, and, though some may have slightly slicker UIs than Keychain, nothing compares on iOS with Keychain's auto-fill. The closest match on iOS would be iCab browser's password fill and services option, but to get full functionality you'd have to also be using iCab browser on OS X and the desktop version simply isn't up to snuff.
