Forum thread seeks a shared family password manager
Original title: Shared password manager for families?
The poster wants a non-technical, cross-platform way to share finance and insurance logins and distrusts 1Password after unspecified recent events.
A Lobsters user asks for a shared password manager for family finance and insurance accounts, including relatives who are not technical. Requirements are long-distance sharing, no command line, Linux plus macOS and iOS, and optional self-hosting. The poster rejects 1Password over unspecified recent events and considers KeePassXC with Google Drive or Syncthing too cumbersome.
- Shared accounts are for finance and insurance, used by non-technical relatives.
- Clients must work on Linux, macOS and iOS.
- Self-hosting a web app is acceptable if needed.
- KeePassXC plus Google Drive or Syncthing is floated as a fallback.

Long story short, I need to have a bunch of shared accounts with family for finance and insurance and stuff, mostly for the sake of family members who are getting old and need help keeping things organized.
