Review summary

Password Boss is praised for its strong desktop application, secure data storage, and affordability. However, multiple users report significant problems with the Android app, such as crashes, poor synchronization with desktop, login difficulties, and weak autofill support. The mobile UI is considered outdated and lacks features found on the desktop version. Despite these issues, users appreciate the responsive customer support and the app's basic password management functionality.
Pros
  • Works well on desktop platforms and offers comprehensive password management features.
  • Provides secure storage for passwords and personal data including secure notes.
  • Affordable pricing compared to other password managers.
  • Support is responsive and can often resolve issues in a timely manner.
  • User interface is not complicated and thus easy to use for basic password management tasks.
Cons
  • Android app frequently crashes or becomes unresponsive, causing usability issues.
  • Synchronization issues between mobile app and desktop versions, leading to password syncing delays or failures.
  • Login and verification problems on the Android app, including stuck sign-in and verification code errors.
  • Limited autofill capabilities on Android; users often have to manually copy and paste passwords.
  • Outdated and clunky user interface on mobile; features like search and folder management are inconsistent or missing.

Please Fix Saving Bug Spinning. I have a Samsung Fold 5 when open and save updated password it would keep spinning like trying to save the file and copy to the cloud. I check my 5G and it is getting 25mb per a sec.

App breaks for days at a time. A couple of months ago all sign ins got stuck on mobile. Last 48 hours I cannot sign into the Android app when I can sign in with the same information on a laptop.

I love Password Boss. it's changed my life. It's great when I am using a computer. The app has real problems though. One of the biggest is that it doesn't seem to sync. At any other computer, new passwords sync instantly. On the app, not so much. Once the password is in the app (often I do this manually), I have to bounce back and forth from the app to a log in, because it only wants to capture a new password. I hope that one is a setting. Syncing needs to be fixed though.

1) Desktop works well 2) Mobile: hit or miss. When there weren't free managers out there that did a great job Password Boss was fantastic but now... It doesn't really provide anything that the free versions don't. PS-The recent update borked everything including search function not always working, the app closing down, & having to use a 2fa sign in every single time the app is opened. *I said the first time that "the recent update" was to blame/issue **Issue persists

App is unusable on my Galaxy S23. Loads with an error message,nothing clicks, won't swipe, unresponsive. Edit 1: Just cleared cache and data, relogged in again, closed all apps. Still unresponsive to the point that it is useless. I am using it for work and will be uninstalling it now. Slowest app I have used in years. It literally jitters when trying to scroll.

No reviews here since 2022. Really used to like Password Boss, but a few months ago I reported that the app would change a url so that it will not connect to a page. I was told "we'll make an appointment to get into your computer to see what's going on". NOT GOING TO BROWSE MY COMPUTER! I CAN DUPLICATE THE ISSUE ON OTHER COMPUTERS. No answer to the phone number (been leaving msgs for 2 wks) SAME # AS SALES, (IMAGINE THAT)! HAS NOT BEEN FIXED, (AT LEAST SINCE MAY 2024. 4 MONTHS AGO).

on the desktop this is an excellent app, on mobile devices it doesn't alerts present the credentials when you get to a login page or open an app that you have a login for.

The app in the play store is not set up the same way as the app for the computer. Passwords are organized into folders. On the computer app, all passwords are displayed alphabetically so it is easy to locate passwords. On the app, all shared passwords are only displayed in the folders so it's impossible to find anything when you need a password quickly. Give the option of switching the view in the app so it matches the computer version!
