The option to store the password database in the cloud may be useful but it is not a unique feature.

It falls short in the features department, especially the mobile Android version is lacking and not usable on its own. But I prefer the latter over any password manager, it's always been irreplaceable.īuttercup is a cross-platform application that is pretty much available for every major system out there.Â The application has certain strengths such as the ability to store passwords locally or using cloud providers or self-hosted solutions.

Yes, I know Buttercup is an electron based software, and I also know some of you love those. It is puzzling as to why the add-on has auto-lock, but the desktop version doesn't. This is a massive security risk, and I had to check the application multiple times to see if it was hidden. So once you unlock an archive, it stays unlocked until you close it.

While you can lock (close) an archive manually, there is no auto-lock option.

My major complaint is regarding the desktop program.

New entries aren't being saved by the browser extension.

The desktop application is alright, but for one issue.

And there's a Save option which you can set to show up when you fill up a form. The other invaluable feature is that you can set Buttercup to automatically lock the vault and define the time after which it should lock it.Â You can enable or disable a dark theme for the interface.

Options that are available here include adding low and upper case letters, digits, space, and symbols, and you can also set the length of the password. It is available in the extensions and desktop programs. You need unique and strong passwords for each account, and Buttercups password generator delivers just that.

This is the 2nd most important feature next to securely storing passwords in my opinion in any password manager. This workaround might be a deal-breaker for some people. I tried this for a few days, and nearly gave up on this feature, but tried the desktop version to add new entries manually. I tried re-installing the add-on in Firefox, and also tried the Chrome extension on Microsoft Edge Dev, but no dice. An issue on the GitHub page says that this was addressed recently.
