Secrets is an app for storing all of your passwords and anything else you want to keep … secret! There are lots of things in our daily lives that we don’t want other people to know like credit card details, bank details, and of course, passwords. Secrets can protect all of those things and more in an app that’s easy to use but still secured by strong encryption and advanced sync technology. Because we think that your secrets should be yours and yours alone, your passwords and information are never synced with our servers. If you choose to sync your information between devices it will be encrypted and securely saved in iCloud. Secrets uses strong 256-bit encryption and locks your information behind biometric (Face ID or Touch ID) and alphanumeric (a strong and unique passphrase) protection. Despite that, Secrets is full of features that you’re going to love using and will make using your passwords and other information a breeze. FEATURES INCLUDE: • Store all of your passwords, passkeys, credit cards, bank details, and other information so that it’s always there when you need it. • Create reate new, secure, and private passwords for new apps and services. No more trying to come up with a unique password yourself. • Generate one-time passcodes for apps and services that offer two-factor authentication. • Get all of your passwords and information into Secrets with ease — import from 1Password, LastPass, and other popular services or import using a CSV file. • Take your passwords with you. Secrets supports iCloud syncing so your information is always available and up-to-date. • Access your passwords when you need them — Secrets for iPhone and iPad securely integrates with browsers on Windows and Linux so your passwords are never more than a few taps away. • Use password AutoFill to quickly enter usernames and passwords on your Apple devices. PRIVATE AND SECURE We don't have access to your information, including usernames and passwords. Not even in encrypted form! Synced information doesn’t use our servers and nothing leaves your device or iCloud (when syncing is enabled). Information is stored using modern cryptographic algorithms and 256-bit encryption. Use Touch ID or Face ID to unlock Secrets or set up a strong passphrase — or both! You can even use your Apple Watch to unlock Secrets on the Mac. Automatic locking ensures that Secrets keeps all of your information locked away even if your phone/computer is stolen. PRICING Secrets is a free download and there are one-time in-app purchases available to unlock additional features. • Create, edit, delete, and import items after a 7-day free trial. • Unlock shared vaults so you can invite someone else to access your saved items. • A bundle that includes both in-app purchases for a single payment. Alternatively, Secrets is also available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Whether you opt for a one-time purchase or a subscription, it will be valid on all platforms: iOS, iPadOS and macOS.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Secrets at 4.6 against Password Manager's 3.7. Secrets also leads on ratings volume (186 vs 3). Password Manager's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 62%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Secrets sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Password Manager sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Secrets holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Secrets has 186 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Secrets's written reviews are positive against 100% of Password Manager's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Secrets ships an update every 4 weeks, Password Manager monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
