What password manager do you recommend?

Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I’m done dealing with passwords.

What password manager do you recommend?

Features I’m looking for

-Open Source

-Can be synced to cloud (I don’t want self host)

-Can be accessed via a browser

-Cross platform, the more platforms, the better

-End to End Encrypted, and Encrypted at rest on my device, also need some way to authenticate before releasing the password, like a pin or biometrics

-Autofill for browser and apps

-Free (can be a freemium model, but I need the base tier to be free, too broke to spend money on this lol)

-Can export the passwords to a file

I never used a password manager before so sorry if I seem like a noob.

I know I could google it, but I want the lastest info, not some outdated reddit post.

Edit: Woah, those replies are fast. I think I’ll use Bitwarden. Thanks for recommendations! Now I don’t need to worry about forgetting passwords anymore. 😄

Edit 2: It seems I’ve forgotten my email password as well as a few other accounts I haven’t logged into for a while. Damn, should’ve used a password manager earlier.

I use LastPass because my company pays for it, I also export to all of my browsers because LastPass doesn’t fill or save passwords right on some sites and the browser auto fill works better. Sometimes that means I have to search a bit for the right password for an account, but the system works and I haven’t had a compromised password that was my fault in a long time since I use autogenerated passwords. As always 2FA the important accounts.

hellequin67,

Only problem is now I don’t know any of my passwords, apart from master password for BW. 🤣

Norgur,

Chances are that I don't really care about the account if I used @duck.com as a mail alias and a bitwarden password which is the only constellation where an account might be unrecoverable without BitWarden.

TechieDamien,

pass would meet your requirements. It is a super simple implementation of a password manager levying PGP for encryption and git for syncing. You can therefore use any git server for syncing. There are browser extensions for autofill etc and scripts to import/export passwords etc.

Bitwarden is fantastic, been using it for a long time now withour complaints.

Bitwarden. Definitely recommended.

backshift0022,

As others say, Bitwarden checks all of those boxes, and KeepassXC technically doesn’t fit the “not self hosted” requirement, but you can store your database file in any cloud storage you want.

I self host bitwarden currently, but have been playing with the idea of using Vaultwarden instead, just haven’t gotten around to uprooting my working system.

zahel,

Bitwarden. Either selfhosted or the official

cwagner,
  • Bitwarden: Paid, but with a free tier, ticks all your boxes
  • KeepassXC: Free, ticks all but browser access (great android and browser integration, though), syncs through any file sync service (WebDAV support makes for a nicer Keepass2Android experience, though)

Note that I’d not recommend Keepass for multiple users, I heard of sync issues there and you can’t do partial shares. Not an issue for me, though. With Bitwarden, the free tier offers 1 extra user.

Personally I don’t want to be dependent on some other service (like bitwarden hosting for me), but also not be reliant on my own server for something as important as passwords, that’s why I’ve been using Keepass(XC) for the last 7 years (thought it was longer, but it turns out I had LastPass premium till 2016. Fuckers).

For important things Keepass (which I sync in Onedrive). For casual things whatever the browser offers… or some random long password and password reset ._.

Currently using bitwarden. Moved over from LastPass. Free and works on browser plus mobile. Like it so far.

andreluis034,

I think bitwarden fills all of your requirements.

It’s been a long time since I switched to 1Password, but I used to use keepass. I’m not sure whether keepass has a browser extension, but otherwise (if I recall) it checks your other boxes.

1Password is great, even though it’s not open source, and you get to a spot in life where $3/mo is feasible.
