What it does
pwSafe is a Mac and iOS password manager using the Password Safe file format, with multiple safes, groups, all-fields search and personal-cloud synchronization.
pwSafe lets a Mac or iOS user keep a database in the Password Safe file format while using native search, groups and supported biometric access. Its site also lists related documents, one-time passwords and passkeys.
