About

passwd

Features
Read full description

passwd-sso is the iOS companion to your self-hosted passwd-sso vault. It brings your credentials to your iPhone with native iOS AutoFill — log in to apps and websites without ever typing a password. This app requires your own passwd-sso server. It is not a cloud service. You point the app at the passwd-sso instance you operate, and it connects only there. Why passwd-sso for iOS? - Native AutoFill — Fill passwords, one-time codes (TOTP), and passkeys directly from iOS's AutoFill picker in Safari and any app. QuickType suggestions surface the right credential above the keyboard. - Zero-knowledge encryption — Your master passphrase never leaves your device. Everything is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it touches the network. The server stores only ciphertext. - Face ID unlock — Unlock your vault and reveal credentials with Face ID. The vault re-locks automatically after a timeout you choose. - Passkeys — Sign in with WebAuthn passkeys stored in your vault, and create new ones, all from the AutoFill flow. - Browse and organize — View your full vault by category (logins, cards, identities, passkeys, and more), search within any category, and sort by title, date, or website. - Your server, your data — No third-party cloud, no analytics, no tracking. The app talks to exactly one host: yours. - Auto-lock — Configurable timeout, clipboard auto-clear, and a lock-on-exit option keep your vault closed when you step away. To get started you need a running passwd-sso server (open source — see the project repository). Enter your server URL, sign in, set your master passphrase, and turn on passwd-sso under Settings → General → AutoFill & Passwords.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: passwd at none against WidgetCal's 10. passwd also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). WidgetCal's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
