Why should you use this app
Passwords are problematic for humans. They should be unpredictable and strong and completelly different for each service.
Therefore people use password managers. But a lot of them are overloaded with functions which are not necessarily needed (e.g. extra VPN) or they are not Open Source or free to use.
Many password managers use the cloud to sync between platforms. This is handy to access the passwords from different devices at any time. But you have to trust that the NSA doesn’t read your encrypted vault from the cloud and tries to crack your master password with a super computer.
And, even worse, lot of them allow to copy passwords to the clipboard which is highly insecure! (Other apps could read the clipboard without any notice! (Until Android 9))
Built-in password generators are common, but it is still too easy to just create your own (weak) passwords. And generated passwords are still hard to type!
And the worst: All the credentials in a vault depend on ONE single master password!! For convenience users tend to choose a simple or easy-to-remember password. Or they have the challenge to remember a complex random master password.
To address all these problems, ANOTHERpass has been developed as a simple but secure Open Source offline password manager.
