Configure backup options Open your KeePass. In menu bar across the top, click.
- KyPass - KeePass always in sync. KyPass is a native app which helps you manage your KeePass database on macOS & iOS. This repository is currently being used for hosting the official issue & bug tracker of KyPass (iOS & macOS). Download: iOS, macOS. Report bugs/request new feature: issues.
- Note that KeePass 2.x runs under Linux / Mac OS X, too; see Running KeePass under Mono. For developers: KeePassJava2 (library for Java) Icons: No trailing icon = compatible with both KeePass 1.x and 2.x. = compatible with KeePass 1.x only. = compatible with KeePass 2.x only. Others: 'KeePass' is the password manager developed by Dominik Reichl.
KyPass is a Mac version of KeePass from Dominik Reichl. It saves many different information (user names, passwords, urls, comments, ) in one single database. The entries are sorted in groups. The integrated search function allows to search in the complete database. 'KeePass' is the password manager developed by Dominik Reichl. Any software by other developers that is using the name 'KeePass' in the software's name without any direct non-numeric prefix/suffix is abusing the name 'KeePass' and we do not recommend such software. For example, 'KeePassDroid' is ok, but 'KeePass Droid' is not.
