Ask HN: What features are you considering essential in a password manager app?

Hey HN,

At the moment we have started working on a password manager app exclusively for Apple devices and I would appreciate your help if you could share your opinion, on what features you would like to see in a password manager app?.

Be what 1Password no longer is on macOS: no subscription; allow local vaults which can be synced by the user’s choice of service (iCloud Drive, Dropbox, …); built using Apple languages and technologies; interface which looks like it belongs with the OS.

Thank you for your feedback, noted in the To-Do list, to develop a native app for every device. About subscription, I'm not so sure as it helps developers to keep working and improving the project, for example, if we opt for a lifetime purchase, users who purchase this kind of offer would be needed to keep using the app to recover the value they paid.

We plan to use iCloud Drive from start, and we plan to add more possibilities to sync data in the upcoming versions.
