Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.

Granite (granite.co) is a document vault for iPhone. Scan or drop in a receipt, an insurance policy, a tax form, or a passport, and Granite reads it, works out what it is, pulls out the dates and amounts that matter, and files it so you can find it again. CAPTURE Scan a page with the camera and Granite straightens and crops it for you. Share a file into Granite from Files, Mail, or Safari. Everything you add is read and filed the same way, whatever door it came through. FIND IT LATER Search reads the words inside every page, not just the file name. Ask a question in plain English, like "what did I pay for car insurance last year", and get an answer with the document behind it. STAY AHEAD OF DATES Granite pulls renewal and expiration dates off your documents and tells you before they pass, so a lapsed policy or an expired passport is never a surprise. ORGANIZED WITHOUT THE WORK Documents group themselves into collections, and into the people, cars, homes, and accounts they belong to. There are no folders to design and no naming scheme to keep up. WHAT PEOPLE KEEP IN GRANITE Tax forms and W-2s. Insurance policies and cards. Passports, IDs, and Social Security cards. Receipts and warranties. Medical records and explanations of benefits. Car titles, deeds, closing documents, leases, contracts, and invoices. YOURS, AND PRIVATE Every file is encrypted. Face ID or Touch ID locks the app. You can export everything you have put in, at any time, in a format you can read without us. Granite Free holds 25 documents and 1 GB. Granite Paid is an annual subscription that lifts the limits and unlocks Ask. Terms of Use: https://granite.co/terms Privacy Policy: https://granite.co/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bramble at none against Granite's 1. Bramble also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
