I'm not like to use some cloud variants as iCloud, Dropbox, Google. Here you will have the Mac and iOS version of a password manager. It will be the same, but with using the iOS Files app for copy database and secret key.
Scp ~/path/to/the/db.kdbx - It is a name which you write on b step. Scp ~/path/to/the/key-file - Something like B8A4EE0E-AE9F.ī) Create an empty local database with the name which you would like to use. On the Mac side, you can choose MacPass and create the key file with the DataBase.Īnd then it is possible to create communication with iOS in this way(Strongbox example): Keepasium has this great article about comparing many different apps on iOS if you would like to compare other apps. They OpenSource, has a good support on GitHub and they working with KBDX.Īnd they have the possibility to check the apps by themselves before support developers with money. Thanks for a good overview of possible On the iOS side I found as really usable two applications: The DB in MKP on my phone won't know about changes that I make to the DB on my Mac, but if my Mac/DB lives on a cloud, then I can delete the older MKP/DB and import the new version out of the cloud and be synced with fresh news. The utility of a safe cloud spot for the DB is keeping track of changes.
New Understanding? It is not necessary to have a copy of the DB and/or the keyfile in Dropbox (or some other safe cloud spot) in order for MKP to work.
But MKP won't work unless both files have been imported into it. I thought I'd have to safely store the DB and/or the keyfile in Dropbox (in different places) in order to provide functionality for MKP. But of course, MKP wanted the keyfile onboard too, so I Airdropped that and now DB and keyfile are in MKP (again), all working just fine. What would happen if I didn't have MKP installed?) So then I thought MKP would ask where the keyfile was and I would point it to Dropbox. The DB wound up in MiniKeyPass (which, I guess was the only possible destination. I thought what that might look like could be: keep the keyfile in Dropbox and send the DB to iPhone, although I wasn't sure where it would wind up. Not having the DB and the keyfile at the same spot makes good sense intuitively.
