KeePassXC for Mac can store your passwords safely and auto-type them into your everyday websites and applications. You shouldn't waste your time trying to remember and type your passwords.

The thing computers can do best is storing information! Download KeePass Cross-Platform Community Edition now!

Encrypted
The complete database is always encrypted with the industry-standard AES (alias Rijndael) encryption algorithm using a 256-bit key. KeePassXC for macOS uses a database format that is compatible with KeePass Password Safe. Your wallet works offline and requires no Internet connection.

Cross-Platform
KeePassXC for Desktop is a community fork of KeePassX, the cross-platform port of KeePass for macOS. Every feature works cross-platform and was thoroughly tested on multiple systems to provide users with the same look and feel on every supported operating system. This includes the beloved Auto-Type feature.

  • Cross-platform runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS without modifications
  • File format compatibility with KeePass2, KeePassX, MacPass, KeeWeb, and many others (KDBX 3.1 and 4.0)
  • SSH Agent integration
  • Auto-Type on all supported platforms for automatically filling in login forms

  • Command-line interface
  • Stand-alone password and passphrase generator
  • Password strength meter
  • Custom icons for database entries and download of website favicons
  • Database merge functionality
  • Automatic reload when the database was changed externally
