Password manager for different devices

Mr_Toad

I'm using KeePass on all my devices including iMac, MacBook, Android phone and tablet, Windows and Linux.

For OS X you need KeepassX

It's expensive, $49.99 for the PC plus $49.99 for the Mac and you'd need a licence for each device. Then there's the Android version which does seem to be free to download but then it mentions in App purchases so it's probably restricted in some way until you pay.

So I just need to just download this then. I got confused about needing "mono" or ".Net" to be downloaded and backed off. Think I misunderstood. What do you use on your android phone and is it compatible with the files of KeyPassX ? Thanks all.

Sorry - just read that it is compatible with KeePass Password Safe.

Looked at Roboform but throught I read it had a max of about 15 entries.
Have been checking out LastPass. Done the Windows one and ready to do the mac one and think I need LastPasspocket for the phone.
Thanks all.

Just to confirm that I have several hundred entries saved in Roboform.

I have KeepassX on the Mac and KeePassDroid on the phone.

Will go with this set up I think as am used to KeyPass and would really like to stay with it.
Thanks to all who helped with my question.

1. Every now and then, save/export all your passwords from the Free LastPass account into a text document.
2. Upload the document to Dropbox(if you don't have an account, you can get 2 gb for free forever)

So anybody who has or gains access to your computer or to your Dropbox account (not just hackers, but staff working at Dropbox and whoever provides their infrastructure, etc) could access a cleartext document which has all your passwords in it?

Yes, not the brightest of suggestions there

A better way would be to use Keepass and the various ios, android, mac flavours. You can store the database in Dropbox but that's fine since it's encrypted.
