KPass: password manager APK

With the rise of cyber threats, it’s crucial to have a secure and reliable password manager to safeguard your sensitive information. KPass is a simple yet powerful KeePass KDBX client for Android, designed to offer the highest level of security and convenience for managing your passwords, bank card details, private notes, and more.

Secure Password Management

KPass allows you to store all your passwords, bank card details, and other sensitive information in an encrypted KDBX file format. This file format is widely used and supported, offering strong protection for your data. KPass is compatible with both KDBX 3.x and KDBX 4.x file versions, ensuring that you can open and modify your password databases regardless of the version you're using.

Cross-Device Sync

One of the standout features of KPass is its ability to sync data across all your devices. Whether you’re on your Android phone, tablet, or using cloud storage services like Google Drive or Dropbox, KPass ensures that your passwords and sensitive information are always up to date and accessible.

Biometric Authentication

For added security, KPass supports biometric authentication methods such as fingerprint or facial recognition. This makes logging into your password vault quick and easy while keeping unauthorized users out. Even if biometric authentication fails, your database will still open if you enter the correct credentials, ensuring that you never lose access to your data.

Privacy-Focused

At KPass, your privacy is a top priority. The app does not collect, store, or send any of your data. It doesn’t request access to your network or storage, ensuring that your passwords remain completely private. KPass uses the Storage Access Framework, a secure and native Android method, to access data from cloud services or local storage. This design ensures that your passwords are never exposed to third parties or analytics tools.

Generating Strong Passwords

A key part of securing your online accounts is using strong, complex passwords. KPass offers a password generator tool that helps you create unique, secure passwords for each of your accounts. It's always a good practice to generate new passwords periodically and KPass makes this process effortless.

FAQ

Q: Why doesn’t KPass autofill work in Chrome (or other Chromium-based browsers like Edge or Opera)?

A: KPass uses Android’s standard autofill framework, which supports any app or browser that uses this system. However, Google Chrome and Chromium-based browsers enforce their own embedded password manager. To use KPass autofill, you’ll need to follow the browser’s specific documentation to switch autofill services. For Chrome, you can refer to Google's documentation: https://developers.googleblog.com/en/chrome-3p-autofill-services

Q: Why did my database open even though I used an unregistered finger for biometric authentication?

A: This happens because you entered the correct password and key file. While biometric authentication is used to save and restore your secret key, the database will still open with the correct credentials. If biometric authentication fails, the secret key won’t be saved, but your data remains accessible.

Q: How can I be sure KPass doesn't steal my passwords or other personal data?

A: KPass is designed with privacy in mind and does not collect, store, or transmit any user data. The app doesn’t require network access or storage permissions. Instead, it uses the secure Storage Access Framework to access files from cloud services like Google Drive and Dropbox, ensuring your passwords stay safe and private.

Q: Why isn’t KPass open-source, and how can I trust it’s secure?

A: While KPass's user interface is closed-source to protect the intellectual property of the product owner, the core engine is powered by the open-source project gokeepasslib – https://github.com/tobischo/gokeepasslib, which ensures robust encryption and security. This combination of closed UI and open-source backend offers the best of both worlds: proprietary design with trusted security protocols.
