Review summary

Okta Personal has good integration within the Okta ecosystem and potential as a personal password manager, but users criticize the mandatory biometric requirement and limited functionality, especially on older devices or Android versions below 12. The app lacks key features like password generation and convenient credential management. There are user concerns over biometric security and data breaches. Overall, while Okta demonstrates strong effort, the mobile app is viewed as primitive and needs more development to be recommended widely.

Pros

The app integrates well with Okta's ecosystem and has potential as a password manager alternative.
The company behind the app, Okta, shows strong effort and high-quality frameworks in product development.
Users appreciate the concept of the app as a personal password manager option for Okta users.

Cons

Mandatory biometric authentication is required to access the app, with no option to bypass it, causing concerns especially for users with older devices or those unwilling to use biometrics.
Limited functionality in the app such as inability to add credentials freely, lack of password generation, and difficult credential input methods compared to browser-based managers.
App requires Android 12 or higher, limiting usability for users with older Android versions.
Security concerns related to biometric data use and breaches, causing reluctance to provide biometric authentication information.
Mobile app features are considered primitive or incomplete, lacking key functionalities like CSV import or efficient copy-paste for credentials, making it hard to recommend.

2025-01-13	Cl*****	The app is fine for what it does. Frankly, Chrome and Samsung Pass do the same, and easier to use. As for BIOMETRICS. Apparently, people are afraid of it and don't know how to use it. Furthermore they don't understand how it's used. Biometrics does not get sent to any app or website that you log into. It's on your phone. Also, when you're first signing into the app, there is a SKIP BUTTON in the right corner on the page where it asks you to add biometrics. FFS people. Biometrics aren't scary...

2024-10-18	Ma*****	Requires biometrics to access. As such, depending on jurisdiction, you can be compelled to unlock the app. For instance, in the USA, you cannot be forced to reveal a password or PIN, but can be forced to provide biometrics access. If you live in, or travel to, those jurisdictions, this is a concern.
