Please update the required OS notes:
KeePassXC requires OS X 10.12 (Sierra).
When I try to open it on 10.11.6 El Capitan, the program icon is grayed out with the 'circle&slash'.
Also, the developer website states: "Supported on macOS 10.12 and later".
The last release that I have a note indicating earlier OS support is ver 2.4.1 which was compatible with 10.10 & 10.11.
Recently KeePassXC doesn't open. You need also to enter the database and some key file...??!! Why??? What for ??? I couldn't figure out, so went back to using KPx.
"Warning: There is a known data-loss bug in KeePassXC 2.4.0 on MacOS if safe saves are disabled and you are saving to a different file system (eg, VeraCrypt container, google-drive mount, etc). Please enable safe saves to workaround this issue." https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/releases/tag/2.4.0
I have always found this app to be windows-centric and not designed along mac user interface guidelines therefore I couldn't use or recommend.
Used to love 1Password but got way too expensive, too many upgrades, too much money. Now I use Enpass for Mac desktop (currently v 5.6.8) -- while not perfect, it comes so much closer to 1Password than any others I have tried (and I have tried half a dozen or more) so Enpass is my recommendation and has been for past few years and as they have improved it.
Caveat: it's possible they've changed KeePass but when i tried it in the past, just too overcomplexified (windoze characteristics) and not for me a lifelong multi-platform user who prefers Mac OS without a doubt.
A warning: on exporting all custom set attributes get lost, so this feature is totally useless and you will loose important data! Also having a gui made with (more) love would make daily with keepassxc more fun.
Perhaps I have missed something but this product makes my password management more difficult rather than easier. I am especially disappointed in the almost total lack of documentation and no 'help' menu. I literally spent hours trying to find documentation on the details of how to set it up and what some of the various fields are for. I have yet to get the shortcut key to work which when first installed I found out defaults to blank. Unless somebody replies to this pointing out its errors, I will continue to search out and try other solutions to replace the aging app I currently use. While this app has promise I feel it is not yet ready for prime time.
As an old user of KeepassX, I can say that this application is BETTER. And actively developed. Uses the same password database of the old application; I am switching to KeepassXC today.
