Frequently asked questions

Is KeePass safe to trust with all my passwords?

Its encrypted database format (AES-256/ChaCha20) is open, audited and battle-tested since 2003. Security ultimately depends on your master passphrase.

How do I sync KeePass across devices?

Put the database file in any sync service (Dropbox, OneDrive, Syncthing). Compatible apps exist for Android (KeePassDX) and iOS (Strongbox).

KeePass or Bitwarden?

KeePass keeps everything local under your control; Bitwarden adds effortless cloud sync and browser autofill. See our password manager guide for the full comparison.
