pass android

Android password manager app compatible with pass, the standard unix password manager.

Core Features

  1. Secure Copy & Paste

    Control the Clipboard (i.e. clear after 45 seconds). Don't let unauthorized apps access the password you want to copy & paste.

  2. Browse passwords to copy or show

    Recursively browse the directories with passwords. Allow to copy or show.

  3. Use GnuPG

    Full compatibility with pass and the gnupg toolchain.

  4. Import & Update passwords

    One-way push of passwords from computer to device.

  5. Secure Passphrase & Password Cache

    Don't leak anything. But don't make the mobile life too uncomfortable.

  6. Be Configurable

    Preferences. Let the user decide. As much as possible.

  7. Modern UI and app architecture

    Pleasant to the eye. Easily extensible. Hackable.

Secondary Features

  1. Secure Password Storage

    Encrypted container for passwords to hide even their file names.

  2. Built-in keyboard for passphrase entry

    Don't let other apps snoop the passphrase. Be paranoid.

  3. Improve security

    Include PRNG fixes.

Feature Wishlist

Maybe one day support:

  1. Searching for a password
  2. Sharing of a password (TODO: analyse security impact)
  3. Creation of passwords
  4. Real 2-way sync (with conflict handling / merging)
  5. Security tips, like "Did you know..." you can improve your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf settings? i.e. improve hashing algorithms used, see bettercrypto.org
