#MacPass
There are a lot of iOS KeePass tools around but a distinct lack of a good OS X version. KeePass can be used via Mono on OS X but lacks vital functionality and feels sluggish.
MacPass is an attempt to create a native OS X port of KeePass.
##Disclaimer The Project is in heavy development. Beware that I'm going to shift things around so stuff is going to break. A lot.
##Download
I'm trying to upload binaries for all the tags I create along the way. Use it with caution, it's unfinished. Really!
All releases can be found at Github.
##How to Build
- Fetch the source of MacPass
git clone https://github.com/mstarke/MacPass
cd MacPass
git submodule update --init --recursive
- Install Carthage
- Install all Dependencies
carthage bootstrap --platform Mac
After that you can build and run in Xcode. The following command will build and make the application available through Spotlight. If you run into signing issues take a look at Issue #92
xcodebuild -scheme MacPass -target MacPass -configuration Release
There have been some changes in the submodule urls. Please consider re-syncing and initalizing all submodules.
git submodule sync
git submodule init
##Known Major Issues
- Binary releases (0.5.x):
- KDBX History is only preserved. Editing doesn't create new history entries

##Alternatives
KeePassX is a Qt based KeePass port. The stable 0.4.3 release only supports the version 1 format. The Beta can read database version 1 and 2 and write version 2 containers rather nicely. It's in active development and open source. The Beta fully supports all database 2 features and should be stable enough for daily usage. It can import version 1 into a version 2 file but is unable to natively write version 1 files.
KyPass Companion is a native Cocoa port and offers KeePassHttp compatiblity. Should be able to read and write database version 1 and 2. It is closed source and currently available in the Mac App Store. It's rather expensive considering the bugs and missing features. Based on the user reviews it should work. Not all version 2 features are supported. It is unable to convert between database versions.
S3crets native Cocoa Port with a different approach to displaying the database fully inside a tree. It is able to read and write database version 1 and 2. Not all database features are fully supported.
