[HELP] Migrating away from Android Password Store
from ReginaPhalange@lemmy.world to selfhosted@lemmy.world on 13 Dec 23:42
https://lemmy.world/post/23112908

Looking to migrate away from APS as it is no longer in active development.
I need a solution that will still enable me to add/remove/change passwords from an Android device, a Linux device, and have all changes sync-up. (In GNU-pass-based APS, it’s achieved by a git repo that saves passwords as gpg encrypted files) Preferably, I want it to still be self hosted, F-Droidable, and maybe a migration guide or tool to ease the transition.

Thanks!

Bitwarden for paid, or VaultWarden for self-hosted.

I would say throw them some support and buy the cheap yearly pricing. It’s a steal, and you won’t have to worry about it ever.

Or best of both worlds, self host Bitwarden directly for $20/year

I don’t get it

Well yes, I run my own, as does everyone else questioning your response. The $20 is throwing everyone without context. We can only assume you mean hosting costs.

I was responding to a comment about bitwarden being paid while vaultwarden is self hosted. I’ve been self hosting bitwarden for years and pay $20 a year for the subscription to do so and support them. Is the self hosted option not paid like the comment I replied to says?

fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com on 15 Dec 13:36 collapse

OK, there’s the context. “I self-host BitWarden and pay for an individual license to get extra features and support them.”

All for that: Finance FOSS! That bring said, Comment OP didn’t say you couldn’t self-host BitWarden, but I understand the response now. Vaultwarden is just so much easier to self-host, though.

The way it is written was like only vault warden is self host able and usually VW is mentioned more in forums when the actual official stack that gets regular updates and security reviews is available to host so I always like to point that out so more people use it instead of the knock off though it does have it’s use cases.

This is the way. I’ve used other methods like Keypass + Nextcloud, etc. A system built for this, like BitWarden, is soooo much better. Especially at things like 2FA secrets.

I like proton pass it has a free tier and paid version

zelifcam@lemmy.world on 13 Dec 23:52 next collapse

Vaultwarden

Super easy with a single docker compose file.

If you have a way to sync files (Nextcloud, Syncthing, etc): KeePassDX on Android (f-droid), and KeePassXC on Linux (Flathub). They both support TOTPs, and XC has browser and libsecret integration.

gazby@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 14 Dec 01:02 collapse

Plus SSH agent integration which is killer 💯

BrownianMotion@lemmy.world on 14 Dec 04:18 next collapse

Selfhost Bitwarden. Has apps for everything, browser extensions and can be accessed via webpage as well.

Eezyville@sh.itjust.works on 14 Dec 04:53 next collapse

You could use KeePassXC. Just sync it on your cloud platform whether that be Google cloud or Nextcloud.

Cyber@feddit.uk on 14 Dec 13:15 collapse

Or Syncthing…

asudox@discuss.tchncs.de on 16 Dec 09:36 collapse

Syncthing’s development has been stopped months ago.

edit: it didn’t stop

Cyber@feddit.uk on 16 Dec 12:10 collapse

syncthing’s development is alive & well.

I’m presuming you’re referring to the Android wrapper that had it’s last update 2 weeks ago?

The Syncthing-Fork project is also still alive & (presumably) continuing on

asudox@discuss.tchncs.de on 16 Dec 12:35 collapse

mb, seems to be how you said it. And I stopped using it because my dumbass thought the development stopped.

Whatever you choose, consider a donation to the devs, that’s what helps prevent these apps from dying

I use bitwarden, it’s pretty nice

sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works on 15 Dec 07:00 collapse

Can confirm, it remembers passwords and doesn’t tell them to bad guys and gals.
