I‘d not consider myself technologically unsavvy but I can‘t really understand how a password managing app on my phone can keep my passwords safe?
By that I don‘t mean what kind of encryption technology is used, I just can‘t believe that I really CAN trust a company not giving/selling all my passwords (or losing them to a hack).
That‘s also the reason why I never use apples pw manager for example.
Am I overly cautious? Is it safe to store my passwords in a pw manager app?
Maybe someone that understands the technology/encryption behind such apps can help me
In: Technology
Password managers don’t make you 100% safe. But they typically make you safer by making it easy to use unique passwords on all your sites.
Personally I use open source software to store my passwords. I trust it more than normal password managers since public software experts can see exactly how it works.
