Fully self-hosted password manager options (lemmy.ca)

What do you prefer to use for a password manager?

How well does it work on mobile? (specifically, using autofill on android 14)

I'm currently using Vaultwarden; but the android app, which is where I'm using it 95% of the time, has always been a bit flakey getting autofill to popup. Now it's decided to stop working entirely; so I'm going to look around at some alternatives for now.

/edit:

Well, idk what happened.

I spent about 30min trying different things: switched androids autofill settings to another app, changed them back, cleared app data, force stopped everything relevant, re-installed bitwarden, restarted the device, messed with accessibility; nothing seemed to work. Bitwarden adamantly refused to popup for autofill in anything I'd tried. (4-5 different sites in chrome, firefox, and duckduckgo. The openvpn app, Jerboa, my bank. Nothing worked. Absolutely 0 sign of autofill anywhere.)

I made this post and went for a walk.

Now suddenly autofill is working again.

I hate technology sometimes.

/edit again:

The best option I've seen so far: There is an 'autofill' QuickSettings button you can add to the notification tray that opens the vault and asks which item to fill with. (just like the 'open vault' inline autofill option). If inline isn't popping up, use that.

Vaultwarden over tailscale has been good to me.

I do have a qualm with how easy it is to accidentally close bitwarden before saving a password and losing the password you just generated. But that's just taught me to not zip through the process

I believe you can view the generated password history

Too bad it auto-generates a new one in the same menu :)

[–] Kuvwert@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's a "password history" menu on the same generator page that saves a comprehensive history of generated passwords for reference.

Its available in both the app and the browser extension

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes.
But the menu is after you generate a new password (at least in the extension)
Thus you might not know if the password is a new one or the one you generated. And that might confuse some.

[–] Kuvwert@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That is true. Personally I rely on the timestamps to make the differentiation. But I can see how that might be confusing if one were using the product for the first time. Definitely could use some polish.

Even if you arent sure and gemerated double entries.
IMO there should be a "Generate" button
