Exactly. Or even 3 if you make use of security level 3. The only exception is at the start when there are no passwords stored yet.

- jazoom 8y agoThat's pretty interesting. It's a trade-off between remembering a password and making sure you have enough devices. I personally would trust my brain (and a backup piece of paper) more than one of my devices that might die at any moment. I use KeePass, but NoKey seems great.
- Zinggi 8y agoBut wouldn't you agree that your brain + NoKey instead of a piece of paper as a backup would be more secure? And more convenient, as you don't have to type your passwords anymore. I don't wanna push you, just wanna give you some things to think about. As long as you use strong and unique passwords everywhere you're good. Also, it's not a big problem if one of your devices dies, as long as you paired enough devices you won't lose any passwords.
- jazoom 8y agoSorry, what I said was probably confusing. I meant, I keep the password to KeePass in my brain and in backup places. I'm unlikely to lose all those. >Also, it's not a big problem if one of your devices dies, as long as you paired enough devices you won't lose any passwords. Not everyone has a million devices.
- Zinggi 8y agoAh ok, got it. If you are already using KeePass than there is no reason to use NoKey, KeePass is great! > Not everyone has a million devices. I don't think that's fair. With 3 devices you're perfectly ok. Or even with only 2, if you also use a "key box" (gives you one "device" more at the cost of having to remember a password).
- jazoom 8y agoI only routinely use 2 devices. I'm very heavily into the tech scene and could afford more devices if I wished. Some people don't live in a place where it's easy to afford multiple devices. Many non-tech people don't even use a desktop PC anymore. They just have a smartphone. Believe what you will, but it is certainly fair to say not everyone has enough devices for this service to make sense. For example, me, with 2 devices. >If you are already using KeePass than there is no reason to use NoKey, KeePass is great! Exactly.
