Is there one that does NOT use any off-device storage? Or one that provides options for how and where your data is stored?
What I mean by this is no cloud, no central server storage, no third party storage of your data at all.
In other words, if you have it installed on three devices there's file of some sort that you have to replicate between them yourself or some network-based (not internet, local network) approach to synchronization.
I know centralized storage is convenient but that's where you open yourself up for compromising your information in the even of a breach wherever your info is stored.
- SyneRyder 10y agoSplashID has that option. They promote a cloud-sync option, but you can opt for WiFi-Sync-Only instead, which will synchronize your phone to your desktop/laptop and never interact with the Cloud. There's also an option to never sync with any other device. I've been using it since the PalmOS days and have it working today across my Mac, Windows, iOS & Android devices. https://www.splashid.com/ https://www.splashid.com/

In fact if you happy with that option, you don't even have to pay them anything. https://support.1password.com/sync-options/#sync-over-a-local-network-advanced-users https://support.1password.com/sync-options/#sync-over-a-loca... Btw, the closed source client is also a weak point in the whole architecture, but if you don't worry about that, then probably you shouldn't worry about letting them store your encrypted passwords.
- WorldMaker 10y agoKeePass (and family) store to encrypted files on your machine that never leave the device by default. It doesn't know or care about cloud or central server storage. (It simply provides a means to reconcile changes made in other files, such as synchronized conflict versions.) Most people then choose the cloud storage of their own choice (Dropbox, OneDrive, Resilio Sync, etc...) to pass the files between devices as interested/necessary. KeePass doesn't know nor care that a sync provider is being used and its just like any other file to sync (which is why you can choose any file sync strategy under the sun).
