KeePassDX
A KeePass password vault for Android, stored in a file you own.
Instead of Google Password Manager

KeePassDX opens the KeePass database format on Android, so your password vault is a file you keep and sync however you like. It has no account and no company server, and it is the Android end of the same kind of vault that KeePassXC keeps on a computer.
KeePassDX scores a 5 on lock-in, self-direction and power, a 4 on footprint and longevity and a 3 on delivery.
It is Android only, and syncing between devices is your job, so Delivery is a 3.
On a phone it means one file that you choose where to keep, opened by an app with no account behind it.
- Opens standard KeePass vaults on Android
- The vault is a file you own and move yourself
- Syncing between devices is up to you
