Samdung are complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, such that you would do well to trip the knox flag deliberately, since it'll hurt them more than you.

As for password managers, I've always use Keepass. It doesn't sync, but that's a point in it's favor, since network syncing is sheer laziness, and another unnecessary security risk vector.

oh no, im interested in Samsung pass because i have a Samsung phone.

If you use the Samsung Cloud, you've already sold your soul to their proprietary walled garden.

I'm sorry.

Use pencil and paper and store in safe place such as lock box. Never rely on any app or service to hold onto saved passwords such as Google or others.

i do that now. but i want to use the Samsung pass offline/ local store.

"according to Samsung its locally stored and encrypted"-------- " it has a "sync" option to upload to the Samsung cloud."

Yes i noticed the sync to Samsung cloud, if i turn OFF the Samsung cloud sync does that mean my data is locally stored?

You CAN disable all forms of online sync backup for things like Samsung and Google like what Google normally syncs for your contacts, phone #s, emails, pictures, videos... you have to learn how to configure everything in your Android device. You do not want to have an online service save your password logins.

Cloud is only a backup to Samsung cloud


Just think about what will happen if you stop using a samsung phone. You lose access to that password manager. Microsoft Authenticator just stopped it's password manager and you'd have to use MS Edge browser.

Plenty of other applications incorperate a password manager, Some AV, VPN, Browsers. If you stop using them you lose access.

I'd recommend a standalone because you are not tied to a specific brand for other stuff, like above. Tied to the password but not a browser, etc

I use Keepass, freeware. Has apps for desktop and mobile. Can use a version that has cloud backup/sync or you can keep a purely offline version that will require you to manually sync between devices.
