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

I can’t really explain the encryption but I can say that the vast majority of cyber security experts recommend using a password manager. Is there a 0% chance of your PM getting compromised? No, that’s impossible. But the risk of using simple passwords and reusing passwords if you don’t have a password manager is much higher.
