KeeWeb For Mac

There are many password management solutions out there, each trying to make your life easier while ensuring your personal information remains safe. KeeWeb is an unofficial web and desktop application that enables you to open, browse, and edit KeePass database files.

KeeWeb comes as a web app hosted by the developer on GitHub, which allows you to effortlessly open your KeePass databases in any web browser while keeping them offline. Note that you also have the option to host the web app on your own server.

On the other hand, KeeWeb comes with a standalone desktop app that provides the same capabilities, without cluttering your browser. The app can either open or create KeePass compatible databases (.kdbx) and can also integrate with your Dropbox account to provide syncing options.

For your convenience, KeeWeb offers you the option to open multiple database files at the same time and navigate between them with minimal effort. Moreover, within the database, you get to organize entries into groups, to assign color tags, or to manually input text labels.

KeeWeb can keep you entries sorted by different criteria: title, website, user, creation or update data, or attachments. Note that KeeWeb automatically creates a smart folder for each new tag, so make sure to use relevant names.

To keep your data safe, KeeWeb requires a master password, which you can also replace with a key file (you need to use KeeWeb to generate the key files). What’s more, KeeWeb can keep track of the changes made on each entry.

KeeWeb offers you the option to keep your password databases only on your disk drive, even if you choose to use the web app to access the data. On the other hand, KeeWeb can also connect to your Dropbox account and help you sync the database file to multiple devices with minimum effort.

To conclude, KeeWeb is an excellent alternative for viewing and editing KeePass password databases: comes with a beautiful and intuitive user interface, can work offline, but also provides the option to use the Dropbox cloud service.
