This way you can safely store your credentials away from your computer. KeePassXC 2.5.0 comes with a new 'Export to HTML file' option (available in the Database -> Export menu), also called Paper Backup, because this allows you to easily print your credentials in clear text on paper. It's also worth noting that KeePassXC has not had an external security audit due to the 'considerable price' this would involve. There's no cloud synchronization built into KeePassXC, but this can easily be done through third-party cloud provides like Dropbox, Google Drive, Nextcloud, and so on.Īs for web browser integration, KeePassXC supports this with the help of an extension available for Firefox or Chrome-based (Google Chrome, Chromium, Vivaldi, etc.) web browsers.Ĭompared to KeePassX, KeePassXC includes numerous extra features, including auto-type on Linux, Windows and macOS, Twofish encryption, YubiKey challenge-response support, TOTP generation, CSV import, the already mentioned browser integration (with the use of a browser extension), and even a command line interface, among others. For its database, KeePassXC uses the KeePass 2.x (.kdbx) password database format as its native file format in versions 3.1 and 4, using AES encryption with a 256 bit key.

The application is built using Qt and runs on Linux, Windows and macOS. KeePassXC is a free and open-source password manager started as a community fork of KeePassX (which itself is a fork of KeePass), which is not actively maintained.

KeePassXC 2.5.0 was released recently with important improvements, like an option to export a database to an HTML file (for paper backup), database statistics, re-enabled Wayland support, and more.
