I've been manually backing my passwords to Bitwarden and will later do it for KeePass. So glad to hear this, since Bitwarden's android app fcking SUCKS. It's so slow, the buttons don't even work so you can't even save ANYTHING on the phone. It's completely unusable. On Windows it's rather limiting and doesn't even have a dedicated space for email input, just for username and password. It's so tarded. KeePass looks like the way to go.
Dude, this video just saved me money and improved my security. I was going to sign up for an online service because I didn't think the open source stuff worked across platforms. Now that I know I can use KeePassXC everywhere and keep it synced that's what I'll be doing.
Thank you for your video which explains a complete use case. This is what is missing for new users in the KeePass ecosystem ;) There are many different methods, so the important thing is to have full visibility on the tools used so using end-to-end open source applications is a very good thing! :)
I don't even know how did I get here but I've done it and it's a relief since I know it's permanent and it can't be strip from me tbh, also learned how to use syncthing in the process which seems ridiculously useful, thank you for taking the time to do it
Thanks so much for a thorough look into automatically syncing KeePass between platforms. Personally I use KeePassDroid on my phone rather than KeePassDX, but Syncthing works just as well with it. Just as an FYI the Android Syncthing app has a setting to run it as a service, which means it will auto start and run in the background on your phone... so you don't need to run it manually when you restart.
Thank you. 👏 My first try at setting up a decent password manager for my phone and PC. Was hard work following the whole process step by step but I managed to get it all working perfectly so I'm over the moon with the result. Really well made and comprehensive video!

thank you so much for introducing me to syncthing ! this video was my first introduction on how to set up syncthing as well as keepass. thank you so much. the pace at which you went through the steps in the video was enough for me to be able to follow through. thank youu!!
That is excellent content. I was tired of trying to keep my keepass database updated and I was really close to subscribe an online service, but your video changed my mind Thank you
Tip for making Syncthing start up with windows: Hit windows key + r and type shell:startup Your file explorer should open to a specific location (the location the video mentions...), now simply drag and drop the syncthing exe with your RIGHT mouse button to that explorer, it should bring up the context menu. Simply click create shortcut here and you're done. Syncthing will start with windows. By the way: this works for any program.
Honestly dude ty so much. This is literally what i needed so much rn. Your tutorials are so fucking underrated and so good bro. And literally everytime the same you are uploading the best tutorials about things i need urgently in the moment.
Thanks for putting this together, I've had this idea in my head for years but never got around to setting it up. I keep getting a "Could not read credentials" error when trying to open the .kdbx file containing my paswords on my phone. Has anyone run into this issue?
Great video! I use Nextcloud to keep my password database sync'd between PCs. On my Android tablet and phone I use Keepass2 Android which uses the built-in WebDAV to sync with Nextcloud directly. I don't need SyncThing for this.
Great video 👍 , But wanted to know about how well secure are the global discovery and relay servers. Couldn't exactly understand their working . Is TLS used and can the servers see data . Maybe you could also explain exactly how the exchange takes place , coz i am not sure of how my data is being synchronized over the internet. Coz then maybe we also need to add folder passwords which for which their is an option. Let me know would be helpful 😄
Thanks for the most detailed guide on setting up the keepass, But bro now you owe us one more favour , Please create a video on this syncthing utility, as it is a fully functional NAS like suite in itself.
Thanks’ for yours nice informative video. I have a issue regarding this. is it possible to synchronized with syncthing+keepass between 3 devices Laptop, Desktop pc & Phone ? If you have time to make new video about this issue , it will be great.
The desktop shortcut don't work for me. In mour browser you have after the adress something like "/#" or "/@" by me its yust the adress and it seems syncthing does not login.
Great videos but what about verification of authenticity sha chrcksum verification? You don't just trust stuff you doenload do you? Man in the middle etc have happened tooany times
Hello Thanks for the great Video, but I've a little Problem The Console refuses to disappear in Windows 11 I've tried multiple ways and it didn't work can you please help!
My man! great video. but I am facing confilicts in version while syncing the .kdbx files EDIT: Solved this issue by changing File Versioning to - Staggered File Versioning
That alone is not fool proof (personal sad experience flashback 😪), but the new keepass versions have a compare and merge function activated by default. So every time the keepass vault is unlocked it compares the new version with the one it saved last time, and merges them, if differences occur.
20:45 Que asco, te aparecio el Xokas... 🤢🤮 Bro, ur phone looks too powerful. I have an Redmi 6A, in ram seems good, even, better than of yours, but, is a piece of s... Anyway, very good video, took my like and sub. PD: Ur voice sounds like another 3 or 4 youtubers mixed xd (Pajno mainly) You can also add in "Patterns and ignore" the following command 'ignoreDelete=true' to avoid losing the files, the only way to stop receiving it is to disconnect
I like keepass since it's all your own data, though it does make for a pain if you have windows and ios since the only option most times is to use dropbox for hosting it. I use bitwarden since it's all automatic and the free plan is generous, I use other things for 2fa since I don't have many accounts which need 2fa.
The advantage of KeePass is above all to be able to manage a single file and to do whatever you want with it. Transfer it, copy it, synchronize it wherever you want. Bitwarden is interesting if you create your own server. But very few people do it, otherwise how do you know that Bitwarden servers are not hiding something?
@@kunzisoft2957 I mean they’re a somewhat small company, they don’t have much reason to sell data or look through your passwords. Though KeePass is better if you’re paranoid about this.
@@locbac I don't think the size of a company indicates its philosophy. I think Bitwarden has good intentions because it provides open source code, which is a very good thing, and there should be many more companies with that line of thinking. But there's nothing to stop a private company from being bought out and monitoring server connections afterwards. So I don't think that paranoia about passwords is something that is unnecessary. And again, I'm not saying it's a bad solution, on the contrary, so I'm just throwing out a warning for people to understand what's at stake and choose the best tools for their use. You always have to choose between security and ease of use ;)
After doing a simple research, they were hit with a Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) in June 2023. I don’t know the extent of it yet, as I’m still looking into it before I get on board.
Good news, I'm a bigger A-Hole than you. I kept watching after I realized you had no intention of giving any useful information. If you had only talked faster (were that possible) I would have gotten the idea sooner and saved myself some time.
i was searching for a decentralized password manager which works well on mac and mobile devices and found your video. Its really helpful. Thank you
i have been using this for like 3 months and its so much better than bitwarden and the syncs between devices are lightning quick

Damn. Thanks a lot for this video. Everybody talks about keepass and no one talks about cross platform integration, backups and sync. +1 sub. 🤠

Absolutely the best tutorial i've seen in a long time, you're a life saver
been watching your videos for a while, i know about keypass for around 6 years and I'm very happy with that!

I do this with Outlook, at work

I feel a "like" is not enough. Thank you for this awesome detailed guide
Perfect! Amazing. A technical tutorial that actually works still at the time I see this.
Incredible tutorial. I am a new viewer and am looking forward to more of your content.
this video was genuinely amazing thank you soooooooooo much for this. You are the best. My passwords are secure thanks to you
Thanks for putting this together, I've had this idea in my head for years but never got around to setting it up.
I keep getting a "Could not read credentials" error when trying to open the .kdbx file containing my paswords on my phone.
Has anyone run into this issue?
Wow. Just "Wow". You, sir, are amazing.
Awesome vid man. Been trying to wrap my head around syncthing to replace Dropbox, for ages. Thanks!
i came across this exact setup on my own and its great lol
Nice ! Thanks for this video, exactly what i've been searching for !
Thanks! everything worked like a charm except the autostart for Win11, to "fix" it enable 'use legacy console' in the shortcut settings (options tab)
Extremely helpful I was missing the SureThing.
Amazing tutorial! Thank you so much!
Very good video, much thanks for it! Helped me set up and finally ditch ms autofill..
Great video! I use Nextcloud to keep my password database sync'd between PCs. On my Android tablet and phone I use Keepass2 Android which uses the built-in WebDAV to sync with Nextcloud directly. I don't need SyncThing for this.

Please create a video on this syncthing utility, as it is a fully functional NAS like suite in itself.
Great video tutorial, can it be used from a linux pc??
Thanks’ for yours nice informative video. I have a issue regarding this. is it possible to synchronized with syncthing+keepass between 3 devices Laptop, Desktop pc & Phone ? If you have time to make new video about this issue , it will be great.
Thank you so much for this video it saved me so much time!
Is that Default Folder at the start of the setup important or can I remove it?
The desktop shortcut don't work for me. In mour browser you have after the adress something like "/#" or "/@" by me its yust the adress and it seems syncthing does not login.
All autostart features etc. for syncthing and keepass are already in their own program settings.
Thanks! 🎉
This is brilliant!
Invaluable. Thank you.
Really helpfull video, thanks!
Thanks man great video!!
Does it require microsoft studio to install? it gives an vc dll error
thank you so much actually so helpful
Thanks
🖤
What if my PC is turned off?! Will it also Sync after i start the PC?!
Great videos but what about verification of authenticity sha chrcksum verification? You don't just trust stuff you doenload do you? Man in the middle etc have happened tooany times

SAAA cloud based password manager? That sounds wrong on so many levels O_O .
How does Keypass fare up against Bitwarden?
Well, a simple Google shows that Bitwarden has plans. $10/yr and you get access to "advanced features" like 2FA -- Which you have here...
I like keepass since it's all your own data, though it does make for a pain if you have windows and ios since the only option most times is to use dropbox for hosting it. I use bitwarden since it's all automatic and the free plan is generous, I use other things for 2fa since I don't have many accounts which need 2fa.

syncthing is detected as malware. i dont know if i trust it.
It's a well known program tbh - False positives are a thing too
After doing a simple research, they were hit with a Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) in June 2023. I don’t know the extent of it yet, as I’m still looking into it before I get on board.
There has to be something better than synchthing. Not saying it's a bad solution, just a design flaw of KeePassXC
I bet he's talking about LastPass being paywalled.
This guy's salty cause he got last passed lol 😂😂😂
