This deal is again back with a slightly different 2020 coupon code. Not sure when it expires.
Just signed up and so far so good, no credit card or other payment details required for signup.
The Family Account includes protection for up to 5 people:
Depends… What's yours?
I just save passwords to my Google account.
Is that a big no-no?
Nah that's fine, as long as your Google account is properly secured with 2FA.
I'm the same.
With 2FA
This company recently got hacked!!! btw. Probably explained why it's free for 12 months.
Use KeePass it's free.
Source?
Does Keepass have browser extensions and work on mobile?
You can get them. I used keepas on mobile and Keeweb on my laptop with Dropbox doing the sync for years before ‘investing in a better experience’ buying 1password licenses only to have them rosham bo me by going subscription a year later. Now I use Bitwarden.
Switched to self hosted bitwarden and never looked back
Is it difficult to setup? What features do you lose going down this route?
I'm seriously considering but seems like you lose more than you gain.
I'm with Lastpass and use Password reprompt (i.e asks me master password every [TIME PERIOD]).
Also, is your vault hosted locally or on self managed cloud to be accessible via multiple computers / mobile?
Tbh I don't feel I'm losing much. If anything it feels like it's less buggy to me than LastPass. Only thing I've noticed is unlike LastPass, you don't have the little icon in password boxes in Chrome.
For me, Vault is locally hosted via an addon in Home Assistant. Alternatively I think you can install your own server on raspberry pi using Bitwarden RS.
You also get all the paid feature for free if you self host (eg. Saving Google authentication 2FA tokens, family sharing, etc)
Thanks OP!
I created an account but now I don't know how to copy across my iCloud Keychain passwords into 1password.
Is there any way to do this? Or I just have to enter my passwords for every single website all over again?
There are ways to make this step easier. Are you using a Mac or are you trying to do this on your phone?
I'm on a Mac and I also want to do it on my iPhone.
If all goes well, then I'd also install it on my work PC.
On your Mac using Safari:
1) Install the 1Password app and configure it with your account
2) Enable the browser extension in Safari preferences
3) Go through all of the websites that you want logins saved for and use iCloud to fill the details and login, whenever you login to a site 1Password will prompt to save the details for you
I think this would be easier than manually migrating all the logins
You can also open up the Keychain Access app to make sure you don't miss any accounts
I finally settled on KeePassXC in combination with rclone for sync/backup of the DB to cloud storage.
Benefits
1) completely free and opensource forever and works on my Mac and Windows computers
2) software is completely offline and no internet connection required
3) rclone approach allows any cloud storage providers to be easily plugged in - and does NOT require installation of thick proprietary file system redirectors (like Google Drive) - (which would prevent me using on a work computer).
4) multiple backup copies of keepass DB using simple rclone scripts
I had tinkered with BitWarden including hosting thinking it would be a good option - but its current achilles heel is the lack of ability to add/edit records when offline. https://community.bitwarden.com/t/offline-management-of-writ… Monetization / profit would appear to be the long term goal as well (which I don't begrudge) https://bitwarden.com/blog/post/bitwarden-in-2020/ Self-hosting too may become difficult in future if they don't allow you to override the back-end hosting locations in their clients and do https certificate pinning.
I use ColorNote for all my Android devices. Syncs (and backs up) to google across your devices and ability to password protect notes means you can use it for passwords, bank account numbers and other important bits of info.
And then there are the desktop widget notes which are really useful too.
Not sure how 'secure' it is but it seems to be a good balance between convenience and security - e.g. if I ever need an important string of numbers like an account number, all I have to do is access the (password protected) note.
I recently moved to Android from iOS and had the dilemma of what to do with my iCloud keychain passwords. Ended up going with Bitwarden and after manually entering in my 300 odd passwords, I can say that I'm very happy with it so far.
I did have 1Password on my iPhone but that was when it was a one off purchase during a free promo and couldn't sync them over to Android.
For the few weeks I've used Bitwarden, it's as much as I feel I need with no cost. Would recommend to anyone.
I exported my 1 password stuff to Bitwarden could have saved you a bit of time.
Is it better than lastpass?
I might give this a try. thanks
For me it's Bitwarden and I'll tell you why. (Sorry, I know this is kinda sales pitchy. No I'm not affiliated)
And that's just the free part! If you want a family account that's $1USD/year. A premium account will get you YubiKey, FIDO U2F, and Duo functionality, TOTP generation and secure file storage.
You can self host Bitwarden, docker container images available.
Like the demographic on here would do that.
$1USD/year
You wish.
I use the free account with the web vault personally. I and plenty of others here self host things like Plex and use containers.
You wish.
Whoops! It's $1USD/month, thanks for picking up on my mistake.
Hey! I self host in a docker contain on my Synology 4 bay I got during eBay sales on 4x10TB drives I got super cheap from Amazon due to a price error. Totally not everyone’s cup of team but don’t pigeon hole the OZb community.
I code my own password manager. Does this mean you should too?
4x10TB drives
Those are some big passwords.
Anyone ever wonder if these companies are secret govt agencies?
Like this…

Of course. Then you gotta wonder about all the Russians paid to go online and spread FUD
Does anyone how I can transfer or access the current accounts on my Samsung password manager to other managers like 1 password?
Would like the option not to be tied down to Samsung phones in the near future.
Is there way I could mass export all my 1Password entries and into BitWarden? I am looking forward to getting rid of 1Password. Their business model has changed for the worse.
Agreed, stopped using them when they went sub and hostile to existing users (1Password 4 for Windows can EAD)
you can still purchase one-off licences, you just need to dig deep into the purchasing option of your desktop app.
Just use Bitwarden.
KeePass is the best and most secure IMO.
You keep the database yourself.
You can have multiple databases.
You can sync it to devices using SyncThing
anyone use passphrase?
