About Bitwarden

Bitwarden for Mac is the desktop client of the open-source password manager. Logins, cards, identities and secure notes are encrypted locally before syncing, so the server only ever holds ciphertext. The desktop source code lives in the public bitwarden/clients repository.

The desktop app is the comfortable place to organize a large vault: folders, search, editing and the password generator all have more room than in a browser pop-up. Everything syncs with the browser extensions and the iOS and Android apps under the same account. The free plan already covers unlimited devices, and paid plans add premium, family and team features.

Key features

  • End-to-end encrypted password vault
  • Unlimited device sync on the free plan
  • Password and passphrase generator
  • Folders, favorites and search
  • Import from other managers and browsers, encrypted export
  • Syncs with browser extensions and mobile apps
