Strongbox - Password Manager 4+

Having purchased my first Apple device (ipad mini5) in 2020, I was looking for a solid password manager to run my kdbx files. I narrowed it down to two choices: Strongbox and Keepassium. Since they both offered free trials, I evaluated them side by side. Both developers are responsive professionals and both have created fine applications. Ultimately, I deleted Keepassium and chose to purchase a pro lifetime subscription to Strongbox. I am highly satisfied with Mark’s app. The deciding factor was simple: my eye preferred the sexy look and slick feel of Strongbox. It runs perfectly, it’s easy to use, and does exactly what I need it to do while maintaining bomb proof security. Even though it is more work, I choose to manually sync the database files with my Tresorit account. But Strongbox does feature auto-sync compatibility with other cloud storage companies if I change my mind. Thank you so much for creating (and maintaining) such a exceptional application! It is one of my all time favorites because it’s a solid and indispensable app for serious users.

Wow, thank you so much for this wonderfully written and detailed review. We're all very stoked you like the app, and it really means a lot to receive reviews like this. Thank you for your support.
Best wishes,

As a KeePass power user (over 900 entries), I am on the prowl for the most safe, user-friendly, and reliable KeePass app on iOS. Originally a MiniKeePass user, it started to fail me when I was locked out of my own database because MiniKeePass did not support Argon2 encryption algorithm. Luckily, I searched on Reddit's /r/KeePass subreddit, and found StrongBox was on the list of official recommendations for iOS. Sure enough, not only did it support Argon2 encryption, but it offered a whole host of nitfy features that MiniKeePass lacked, such as FaceID unlock (humongous game-changer in saving time from punching in passwords), easily visible TOTP token keys that you can copy & paste, and also Favicons that are preserved. I cannot express how impressed I am with StrongBox, it's the level of functionality and features that reminds me of Android's KeePass2Android, but even superior. Do yourself a favor and grab the Pro version, and support this wonderful developer! Being open-sourced, vetted, and safe is important to me, and StrongBox checks all these boxes.

I would highly recommend to my family and friends.

Wow, really appreciate this review! Thank you for such a detailed report, I'm very happy you like the app! All the best, -Mark

I switched from MiniKeePass to Strongbox when MiniKeePass was removed from iOS. The transition was simple since all I had to do was import my database and I was up and running. Right away I knew I should have been on Stongbox a long time ago. This app is the best keepass app out there. It’s clean and super intuitive . I installed the OS X version on my MBP as well. Even though I do not use iCloud for my database storage, it is still great to have that as an option. This helps the user experience be seamless for Apple users. Using the pro features has been a game changer! Being able to open the app with FaceId on the phone and use my AppleWatch to authenticate on my MBP, has 100% helped my workflow. I try and have long, unique, and secure passwords. Strongbox allows me to quickly access and copy my data. I love the auto favicon download feature too. It’s the little things. If your like me and you’re a keepass person, I cannot recommend both the iOS and OSX apps of Strongbox.

Very kind! Thank you so much!
