SoleKey – A password manager with no PIN recovery, by design

I built an Android password manager with a deliberate constraint: your PIN is never stored anywhere – not on device, not on any server, not in backups. If you forget it, your data is gone.

  Most password managers have recovery mechanisms. Those mechanisms are attack surfaces. I wanted to see what a password manager looks like when you eliminate that entirely.

  How it works:
  - Your PIN derives the AES-256 encryption key
  - Secrets are encrypted at rest on your device
  - Optional Google Drive backup (uploaded in it's encrypted form – Google only sees ciphertext)
  - System autofill service for apps/browsers
  - TOTP authenticator built-in
  - Export to password-protected ZIP if you want to leave

  What you give up:
  - No recovery if you forget your PIN
  - No real-time multi-device sync
  - No web interface

  The idea isn't that this is better for everyone. It's that for users who want verifiable privacy over convenience, the trade-off makes sense. You don't have to trust my privacy policy – you can verify that there's no recovery mechanism to exploit.
Free tier: 5 passwords. $1 one-time for unlimited.
