Updated October 24, 2025You have numerous options when looking for the best password manager for your personal and business needs. I’ve tested and reviewed several popular password managers, and oneSafe unfortunately falls short.
Read on to learn about the pros, cons, features, and pricing of oneSafe. And get answers to frequently asked questions about oneSafe.
oneSafe stands out by offering its password manager at a fixed price. For those who like to limit their subscriptions, this can make oneSafe an attractive option. That said, many free password managers outperform oneSafe as oneSafe does not offer any web extensions. As a result, key features such as form filling are left out.
Individuals who want the bare minimum: Most password managers out there are fully featured. If all you want is to safely store your passwords on your device and nothing more, oneSafe may be a good option.
Overall: (4)
oneSafe is free for mobile (iOS and Android) and $19.99 for a one-time cost for Mac users. While the low cost and lack of a subscription may be appealing to some, there are free password managers that outperform oneSafe.

oneSafe’s compatibility is limited to iOS, macOS, and Android. It is not compatible with any browsers, though; its iOS app does have an in-app browser where auto-fill can be used.
Overall: (4)
oneSafe’s platform is minimal, visually appealing, and easy to navigate on both its iOS and MacOS platforms.
Everything you store in oneSafe is conveniently categorized, making it easy to find the information you need. This is especially important with oneSafe due to its lack of a browser extension. While going back and forth between the vault and your browser is less efficient than using a web-optimized password manager, it’s made easier due oneSafe’s simplistic interface.
The iOS app is similarly simplistic and intuitive. What sets the iOS app apart from the MacOS app is its in-app browser which then enables autofill. While it’s technically able to use autofill, I don’t suspect that many users will actually switch to using oneSafe as their main web browser. There are plenty of options on the market which integrate with the most common web browsers and it’s a mark against oneSafe that they’re not employing the same strategy.
Overall: (3)
As previously mentioned, oneSafe only offers form-filling capabilities on its iOS app. On top of that, the form-filling capabilities on the iOS app are limited only to logins. While oneSafe is able to store payment information and addresses, it is unable to recognize and autofill those fields.
In the iOS app, you can launch its in-app browser from each of your stored logins. The browser is automatically directed to the website with which your login is associated. You can then direct the app to fill in your username and password.
Overall, I see few use cases for this in-app browser. Most websites you’ll want to log into on your phone are more conveniently accessed via an app. Personally, I rarely log into websites via a mobile browser, effectively making oneSafe a password manager with no form filling capability.
Overall: (4)
oneSafe uses 256-bit AES encryption, which is the industry standard among password managers. Where a password manager truly bolsters its security, though, is extra features like two-factor authentication, dark web monitoring, no-knowledge architecture, and so on. Unfortunately, oneSafe offers no such features.
When it comes to password manager security, we recommend you go with a platform that at least offers 2FA and no-knowledge architecture, two features that many free password managers will offer. No-knowledge architecture ensures that not even the password manager provider has access to your data. While oneSafe does at least meet this requirement, it doesn’t even offer any extra protections. Even a password generator, which is a pretty basic feature in the industry, is conspicuously absent.
By default, oneSafe stores your data locally on your device; however, you have the option to store your data in iCloud or Dropbox. Again, this is a fine implementation. However, there are far more secure ways to store your passwords and quality of life features which I’d love to see oneSafe implement in the future.
Overall: (3)
oneSafe does not offer any form of 2FA at this time.
While some may not use (or even like) 2FA, we always like to see it offered as an optional way to beef up security.
oneSafe 6 is now available on Google Play and the Apple store. Below are the most recent improvements to its product.
oneSafe seems to stake its reputation on its iOS app, which may be one of the more functional password manager apps out there. That said, password managers are at their most functional when used on a browser, which oneSafe does not support. There are many better options out there, some of which are free.

oneSafe uses 256-bit AES encryption, which is top-notch, albeit standard, encryption. Where oneSafe loses points is its lack of 2FA, dark web monitoring, and no-knowledge architecture.
Depending on your device of choice, oneSafe requires a one-time purchase between $0.99 and $19.99. Long-term, this is a low price point due to no monthly costs; however, there are free alternatives that outperform oneSafe.
You can opt to have your data saved to iCloud rather than locally, enabling your data to be synced across multiple devices.
You can set up security questions to recover your password, which is a convenient albeit insecure option.
oneSafe is produced by Lunabee Studio, based in France. Focused on building mobile apps, oneSafe describes itself as “Fort Knox in your pocket.” With 2.5 million users across 130 countries, Lunabee Studio is an established app developer with a dedicated small team nestled in the French Alps.
Our review process involves a deep dive into the various features offered vis-a-vis the competition. In addition to closely researching each aspect of oneSafe, I also created a personal account in order to fairly and accurately test its functionality. My overall impression of oneSafe comes from my experience from both it and several competitors with which I also have personal experience.

Bottom line: oneSafe is a minimalist password manager designed primarily for iOS users. We tested its apps, features, and security to see if its simplicity is a strength or a shortcoming.
