Review summary

The app is highly regarded for its openness, security, cross-platform support, and seed export. Recurrent drawbacks are the controversial new icon, lack of iCloud sync (and Ente account requirement for backups), and inconsistent QR code/camera import performance across devices.

Pros

Open-source with transparency and strong security (end-to-end encryption by default).
Cross-platform support including desktop and the ability to sync across devices.
Reliable and easy to use; users feel it 'just works' with a good UI.
Free to use with no ads or premium requirements.
Seed export capability allows transfer between devices and avoids vendor lock-in.

Cons

Icon redesign is widely criticized, with users preferring the old icon for trust and branding reasons.
No iCloud sync; backup/sync requires creating an Ente account, which some users dislike.
QR code import and camera scanning can be unreliable on certain devices (e.g., MacBook/iPhone) or require permission adjustments.

2026-06-05	ca*****	The app keeps scrolling my token list after I swipe up-and-hold to open the iOS App Switcher, so content moves and I lose my place; this happens on iPhone 15 Pro on iOS 26.5. Please prevent the app from handling scroll input while the system gesture is active.
