In their own words

Bitwarden

Bitwarden is a password manager for individuals and organizations to manage and share online information. Accounts can store passwords, notes, credit cards, and identities, and include passkey management plus a username and password generator. Bitwarden says vault data is end-to-end encrypted and only the user's master password can decrypt it. Bitwarden Send transmits text and files to anyone, including people who do not use the service. Apps include a web app, browser extensions, desktop applications for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and mobile apps for Apple and Android. The Free plan includes basic password management, unlimited devices and passwords, and sharing with another user at no charge. Premium is $1.65 a month billed annually; Families is $3.99 a month billed annually for up to six users. Teams costs $4 per user per month billed annually, and Enterprise is $6 per user per month billed annually. The company says it conducts annual source code audits and penetration tests, and lists ISO 27001, SOC 2, SOC 3, and HIPAA credentials. One platform-specific limitation: the F-Droid build lacks live-sync push notifications, so manual vault syncing is required.

Ente Auth

Ente Auth is a free authenticator for storing TOTP and HOTP two-factor codes. It is available on Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, and web, with encrypted sync across mobile, desktop, and web devices. Account users can use end-to-end encrypted cloud backups; the maker says the cryptography has been externally audited. Ente Auth is open source and supports importing and exporting codes. Native imports are listed for 2FAS Authenticator, Aegis, andOTP, Bitwarden, Google Authenticator, LastPass, Proton, and Raivo OTP. Codes can be organized with search, tags, pins, notes, multi-select, and custom sorting, or shared through links that expire after 2, 5, or 10 minutes. Exports include plain text, encrypted files, and HTML QR codes compatible with Google Authenticator. The app can be used without an account, but those codes remain on the device and are not synced or backed up to Ente. App lock can use a device lock, PIN, or password; it protects the interface, not by re-encrypting Auth data.
