Enpass Password Manager offers a comprehensive solution for storing sensitive information such as passwords, passkeys, payment cards, and secure notes in encrypted vaults. A key distinguishing feature of Enpass is its departure from proprietary cloud storage models, allowing users to select their preferred cloud service or store data locally.

The application is available across a wide range of platforms, including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, with browser extensions supporting Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi. This broad compatibility ensures users can access their credentials across various devices.

Upon initial setup, users can choose between personal or business use and create an account via email or Sign in with Apple. Enpass provides multiple storage options for vaults, including iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Nextcloud, WebDAV, Wi-Fi Sync, and local device storage. Existing vaults can also be restored from backup files or transferred over Wi-Fi.

The user interface prioritizes security, displaying a Security Score that summarizes password health and offering quick access to features like Face ID, AutoFill, and compromised password monitoring. The app automatically tracks weak, compromised, and passkey-enabled accounts.

Enpass includes an extensive array of templates for various record types, such as logins, credit cards, identities, secure notes, bank accounts, passports, travel documents, software licenses, crypto wallets, and insurance policies. These are organized under a "Browse" section, with dedicated categories for passkeys, one-time authentication codes, attachments, archived items, and deleted entries.

A built-in password generator allows users to configure password length, character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), and generate pronounceable passwords, each receiving a strength rating before saving.

For convenience and security, Enpass supports AutoFill for usernames, passwords, passkeys, authentication codes, and payment information in apps and Safari, requiring verification via Face ID, Touch ID, PIN, or a master password. The application integrates TOTP support, eliminating the need for a separate authenticator app, and stores passkeys alongside other login credentials.

Additional features include support for unlimited vaults, custom categories, tags, attachments, password history, breach monitoring, and password auditing. Users can maintain separate vaults for work and personal credentials without needing multiple accounts. Desktop applications also facilitate importing data from other password managers.

Enpass is designed for users who prioritize control over their encrypted vault storage while still benefiting from modern password management features like passkeys, AutoFill, breach monitoring, and cross-platform synchronization. Its extensive platform support and flexible storage options make it a versatile choice for users operating across diverse operating systems and devices.
