Question 1

Bitwarden and (I believe) KeyPass seem to be the most popular among the members in this community. I was wondering if there was a particular reason for this because I’m still learning about the open source ‘ecosystem’. I tested both of them (and I personally love KeyPass), but I noticed some people recommending one over the other, so I was curious whether they were equally safe to use.

Question 2

I’ve heard of several other open source password managers that aren’t usually mentioned here, such as AuthPass, LibrePass, and Passky, and I’m curious if they’re safe. Are there any vulnerabilities associated with them, or are they simply lesser known?

Question 3

I’m talking to more serious instances, such as when someone installs a malware / untrustworthy application. Can other applications and services access the manager’s data, or do passwords remain protected at all?

I’m still new to this community, and all I want to know is how to use my phone more securely. I hope this post (question list) doesn’t violate any of the community’s rules. :) Thank you in advance.
