Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.8
GPA, above 9 of the 27 other password managers we grade
mSecure stores passwords, passkeys, cards and documents in an encrypted vault that syncs through mSecure Cloud, Dropbox, iCloud or Wi-Fi. Version 7 added passkey storage and built-in one-time codes. The vendor says it uses AES-256 and a zero-knowledge design, so the company cannot read vault contents.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about mSecure, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Sync and autofill need accounts and set-up on each device.
- 1
Best for a password and records vault on every device
Sync, passkeys, autofill and the browser extension are not on the free plan, and the monthly-billing prices were not shown.
- 2
Paid plans start at $1.66 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $1.66 per month, billed annually (Essentials).
- 3
There is a free plan
Unlimited records, AES-256 encryption, auto-lock, search and sorting and a password generator, with a 30-day Premium trial.
- 4
It runs on 4 platforms
iOS, Android, macOS and Windows, with a browser extension too.
- 5
Passkeys and one-time codes
Version 7 stores passkeys next to passwords and generates two-factor codes inside the app, on paid plans.
- 6
Customizable records
Templates, field editing and tags let you shape records for logins, cards, documents and other data.
- 7
Several ways to sync
Sync through mSecure Cloud, Dropbox, iCloud (Mac and iOS) or over Wi-Fi.
- 8
A 2.8 GPA, above 9 of 27
That is against the other password managers we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace mSecure 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.

The report card
Best for a password and records vault on every device
mSecure keeps passwords and other records on iOS, Android, Mac and Windows, with plans from $1.66 a month billed yearly. Sync, passkeys, autofill and the browser extension are not on the free plan, and the monthly-billing prices were not shown.

| Free plan and trial | B | A free plan with unlimited records and AES-256 encryption, plus a 30-day Premium trial with no card. Sync, passkeys and autofill are not on it. |
| Features | B | Passkeys, one-time codes, custom records, sync options, security centre, autofill, browser extension and sharing. Nothing in the listing is missing from the job. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. Sync and autofill need accounts and set-up on each device. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | iOS, Android, macOS, Windows and a browser extension, with Dropbox, iCloud and Apple Watch support. |
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.

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 mSecure 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 $19.92 a year.
What you could make
- Templates: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- A password vault, the last thing anyone should make for themselves.
- Passkeys, which rest on security you cannot improvise.
- Apps for macOS, Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- End-to-end encryption done properly.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. mSecure’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.
