About:
Elpass is a secure, native macOS password manager that stores and manages sensitive credentials using robust encryption. It provides a streamlined interface for organizing passwords and accessing them quickly across your Apple ecosystem. The application focuses on local storage and privacy, offering an alternative to cloud-based password managers.
Key Features:
  • End-to-end encryption for secure password storage
  • Native macOS integration with a clean, minimal interface
  • Support for organizing credentials with tags and groups
  • Automatic form filling and password generation
  • Local-first architecture prioritizing user privacy
Use Cases:
  • Managing personal and work-related passwords securely on a Mac
  • Storing sensitive information like software licenses and API keys
  • Generating strong, unique passwords for new online accounts
Alternatives:
  • 1Password – Cloud-sync focused with more features but subscription-based
  • Bitwarden – Open-source with cross-platform sync, but requires cloud account
  • KeePassXC – Free and open-source, but less polished native macOS experience
