Private password managers
12 apps, each with a privacy passport
A password manager holds the keys to every other account, so the vault should be encrypted on your device before it syncs anywhere. Cloud managers like Bitwarden and Proton Pass sync for you with end-to-end encryption; offline ones like KeePassXC keep a single encrypted file that you move or sync yourself.
