Your data stays in a standard, portable file that works with KeePass, KeePassXC, Strongbox, and every other compatible app. WHY PANICVAULT? PanicVault gives you real ownership of your credentials. There is no proprietary cloud, no account to create, and no subscription fee. Your vault is a single encrypted file you can back up, move, or open in any KeePass-compatible app on any platform. KEY FEATURES: - KeePass (.kdbx 4) Compatibility Open and save vaults created by KeePass, KeePassXC, KeePassDX, Strongbox, and more. Entry history, custom fields, attachments, group hierarchy, custom icons, and recycle bin are fully supported. - iCloud Drive & Google Drive Sync Sync your vault across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through iCloud Drive or Google Drive.

Sign in to multiple Google accounts and sync different vaults with different accounts. - Passkeys (WebAuthn) Store and manage passkeys alongside your passwords. Compatible with the KeePassXC passkey format for full cross-platform interoperability. - AutoFill Integration Fill usernames and passwords in Safari and apps with the system AutoFill credential provider.
