I dont agree with many things apple does at all, and I also think their password manager has flaws like revealing usernames without authentification.

It is pretty handy though, to have a file where the entries are stored unencrypted, and if the password manager detects an entry it prompts to decrypt exactly that field, maybe with a fingerprint.

KeepassDX needs to run in the background and be completely unlocked to even detect apps or password fields.

Do you know any existing app that can do this?

      You can also run Bitwarden proper locally but unless you really know how to run and maintain a web server I wouldn’t recommend this.

        The official docker image uses a lot more resources than the vaultwarden container, but it allows significantly more than 100 users. If it’s just for yourself and your family I suggest just going with Vaultwarden.

            You don’t. I meant to say that only large organizations need the official Bitwarden docker setup, but I did not communicate that clearly enough.

          I think what they meant is that one option uses network connectivity while the other functions entirely offline

          Which would make it hardly accessible outside of your home. Still not locally saved as well. And imho if he is not sure which password manager he should choose, he should maybe not self host just yet.

            Bitwarden keeps a local encrypted copy of the database and only connects to the server for synchronisation.

                Maybe because it seems you claim self-hosting bit warden is cloud only and that self-hosted is not accessible outside the house?
                Note: I do not recommending self-hosting bitwarden

                  Why not? I have my own instance running on my NAS and I love to have it self-hosted because this way I keep the passwords where I know nobody else can get them.

                    Because a password manager is critical and if you ask me I’d say no. If you have the know how and understand the risk you won’t be asking
