Best for a free KeePass-style phone vault
Kee Vault is an open-source password app whose free Android and iOS version needs no account and works offline. Sync and the desktop browser extension are in the paid Supporter plan at £20 a year, the vault is capped at 10 MB, and the price was written in 2023.
Who Kee Vault is for
- Fits if you want a free, account-free password app on your phone
- Works for KeePass users who add a synced vault later
Who Kee Vault is not for
- Tight if you want sync, as the free app does not sync or pair with the browser extension
- Watch out: the vault is capped at 10 MB and attached files at about 250 KB each
- Watch out: no refunds on partly used subscriptions, per the pricing page
- Skip it if you want a desktop app, since only web, phones and extensions are listed
- Pricey if you read £20 as fixed: the page says the price was written in 2023

Keep Kee Vault, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Kee Vault you would be making a password vault, the last thing anyone should make for themselves. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $26.80 a year. Kee Vault is open source, so there is a third way: take its code and run it yourself.
What you could not
- A password vault, the last thing anyone should make for themselves.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
What this rests on. Kee Vault’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
