Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 21 of the 49 other password managers we grade
Kee Vault is a password manager from Kee Vault Ltd with a web app, apps for Android and iOS, and a free open-source browser extension. Its mobile apps are free without an account. A Supporter subscription adds synced remote storage and use on desktop devices.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Kee Vault, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You install and start, but sync and the extension need a subscription and linking.
- 1
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.
- 2
Paid plans start at about $2.23 a month
As its pricing page puts it: £20 per year (Supporter subscription).
- 3
There is a free plan
Free Android and iOS app with biometric unlock, autofill, offline use, one-time passwords and KDBX export, no account needed.
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android, with a browser extension too.

The site says it uses Argon2 for stronger protection than PBKDF2-based managers and raises protection automatically for weak main passwords.
- 6

Entries can be viewed and edited without a network connection.
- 7
Mobile autofill and biometrics
Android and iOS apps fill passwords in browsers and apps and unlock with a fingerprint or face.
- 8
A 2.6 GPA, above 21 of 49
That is against the other password managers we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it

The report card
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.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | £20 a year works out near $2 a month, around the category's cheaper-quarter line, and the free app costs nothing. |
| Free plan and trial | B | The free app has biometric unlock, autofill, offline use, one-time codes and KDBX export, with no account. A person could live on it, but it does not sync. |
| Features | C | Autofill, OTP, Argon2 and KDBX. The free app does not sync to a server or work with the browser extension, and attachments are capped around 250 KB. |
| Ease of use | C | You install and start, but sync and the extension need a subscription and linking. No store rating on record. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iPhone, Android and browser extensions for Firefox, Chrome and Edge, with KeePass compatibility. No desktop app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
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 it 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
Good to know
Good for
- Phone users who want a free, account-free open-source app
- KeePass users who want browser fill and a synced vault
- People who prefer a small subscription to a free ad-funded service
Worth knowing
- The free app does not sync to a remote server or work with the desktop browser extension.
- The vault is limited to 10 MB and attached files to about 250 KB each.
- The pricing page does not offer refunds on partly used subscriptions.
- Its pricing page says the £20 price was written in 2023 and may vary by where you buy.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
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.
