## Description

Buttercup is an open-source, easy-to-use password manager designed to securely store and manage your login credentials across all major platforms. With encrypted vaults that you control, Buttercup ensures your sensitive data remains private and accessible only with your master password. Its comprehensive features include support for two-factor authentication (2FA/TOTP), unlimited password entries, multiple vaults, and seamless integration with popular cloud storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive.

Enjoy convenience and security with Buttercup's desktop application and browser extension, which offer autofill capabilities and quick access to your vault. The app automatically locks vaults after inactivity and keeps your information hidden when in the background, balancing usability with strong protection. Open-source and privacy-focused, Buttercup never transmits your data to external parties, giving you full control over your login information.

## Review summary

Buttercup is praised for its desktop performance, flexible cloud integration, open-source nature, and cross-platform support. However, the Android app suffers from instability, frequent crashes, lack of essential features like importing local vaults and autofill, and compatibility issues with older Android versions. Users find the mobile app slow and difficult to use due to missing instructions and poor vault management. Overall, while desktop and browser extensions work well, the mobile experience needs significant improvement to match.
