+1 for Bitwarden. Has plenty of free features and a subscription is cheap.
FWIW you can use a Yubikey with Bitwarden as another layer of security if you’re using it to store your 2FA/ recovery codes too.
Apple Keychain
Same, but I also use chrome a lot so I use chrome and apple.
I’m always curious what the benefit of using a 3rd party password manager is over these tools that work just fine.
They’re bringing Apple’s password manager to 3rd party apps – i.e., Chrome – in the new macOS version.

Well the immediate disadvantage you are facing is that you have passwords stored in two places.
Sure, but on iOS and MacOS Safari, at least, you can specify which store to choose your password from.
So there’s only one extra step to fill in a password.
The main benefit is being able to access passwords without using a web browser.
For example, say you need to tell someone your credit card over the phone. With Safari you need to go into Settings > Auto Fill > Edit > unlock, and finally you need to click on the card number to view it. That’s a horrible process.
With 1Password I can hit a global hotkey, you might use control-space for example, type ‘card’ and there it is. 1Password even has hotkeys to quickly copy the name/number/expiry/security code with a single key press (for each one).
Another big advantage is most password managers have OTP support. Safari and Chrome do not.
@abhibeckert @richard_wagner Apple keychain passwords can be accessed with using a web browser - in the Settings app on iOS, and in Keychain Access on macOS.

1password. I’m keeping a close eye on Apple’s own keychain stuff. It sure seems like they’re moving toward a password manager app of sorts. Once that happens, then I’ll probably jump ship from 1password as it’s getting expensive, and I don’t love 1password 8.
Google sheets
1Password for my personal stuff, but Bitwarden st work. 1Password is a far nice experience imo, even on version 8.
But as someone else said: holding out for Apple to do standalone key chain and would likely switch then.
KeepassXC (Strongbox on iOS) + Syncthing to keep database in sync across all devices.
Raivo looks nice, I’ve been using authy for a long time. To sync all my authenticators since I used to swap phones often.
Shame its ios only.
Bitwarden is the best bang for buck.
Nice try, Mr. Hackerman!
I use Bitwarden.
KeepassXC on desktop and KeePassium on iOS. No vendor/cloud lock in and can pick how you sync the database.
A mix of KeePassXC and Keychain (until there’s a KeePassXC extension for Safari on macOS)
Dream on. Doesn’t seem to be a priority at all, sadly. I switched to KeePassium
Oh right, I already use it on iOS actually. Do you use it on macOS? I just tried it but it immediately crashes when I try to type in my username for the WebDAV connection unfortunately.
I don’t use WebDAV to sync so can’t help you there, sorry. You could try opening a ticket on the GitHub project https://github.com/keepassium/KeePassium/issues
BitWarden and Apple’s keychain. However, passkeys are the future. Once you’ve used one you’ll understand how much worse passwords are.
What websites are using passkeys? I understand MacOS supports them, but I have yet to see an option to use them.
