I dont agree with many things apple does at all, and I also think their password manager has flaws like revealing usernames without authentification.
It is pretty handy though, to have a file where the entries are stored unencrypted, and if the password manager detects an entry it prompts to decrypt exactly that field, maybe with a fingerprint.
KeepassDX needs to run in the background and be completely unlocked to even detect apps or password fields.
Do you know any existing app that can do this?
If I understand it correctly, the passwords are stored encrypted, but not the additional data, like website-URLs and app-names. This way the password manager only needs to temporarily decrypt a specific password when it’s needed for auto-fill. In regards to the passwords that’s probably a bit safer than keeping all the data and the passwords unencrypted in memory. But the cost is that all the other data is stored unencrypted.
