With so lots of new services that keep springing up every day, creating a strong, special password for each service becomes a little tough by the day. You can always use a number of combinations, but it’s not always possible to remember them and create really strong passwords. To generate strong passwords and manage them easily, you can try one of the following best Android password managers.
To help you with creating strong passwords, third-party developers have released a large range of apps for Android. As a longtime 1Password and LastPass user, I still end up using other third-party apps to create passwords. If you are of the kind that does not want to save passwords with third-party apps and sites, we have a list of apps you can use. These apps will just help you create a strong password without any feature to save them in the app – locally or in the cloud.
Best Android Password Managers
1. Passera
Starting off with a completely open-source and ad-free app, Passera comes out on top for its simplicity and transparency. If you’re using a tool as sensitive as a password generator, transparency comes first.
Passera is unquestionably one of the best Android password managers to try. Its main feature is that the app sets password difficulty depending on the web site or your hints. It can then generate passwords up to 64 characters in length. This may be overkill for most, so the app allows you to set the character length as well. The other special feature of Passera is that the app lets you input a passphrase. simply put, you could enter your favorite line in Passera, and it will use this phrase to generate a special password. The generated password is not only strong, but it is also secured using your passphrase and the character length as well.
Passera is available on other platforms as well – check out the Github page of the app here. It is not available on Play Store, though. You will have to use F-Droid, the most popular and open-source third-party app repository for Android.

2. Password Creator
Password designer is a beautiful, material design app. It also comes with a lot of options – you can choose if you want to use numbers, letters, special characters and so on. The app also lets you set a character length.
Apart from letting you create passwords, Password designer will also let you save them in the app. However, if you are not trying to find this feature, you can safely neglect it.
Password designer is available for complimentary in the Play Store. A $1 in-app purchase unlocks the ability to save unrestricted passwords, among other things. This app made its way to our list of the best Android password managers simply because of its usability.

3. Password safe – safe Password Manager
Password safe is self-descriptive. The app lets you generate a random password whenever you try. This app does the basics well, without any extra abilities. Customizations are present, though – you can choose if you want to use alphabets, numbers, special characters and set password length as well. This is one of the best Android password managers available at the moment.

4. Hash It Password Manager
Hash It is really a terrific Android password manager app. If you are still trying to find options, you may like Hash It. This app lets you enter the name of the site and a hint/passphrase to help you generate a unique, strong password. It’s akin to Passera but slightly less unique. If you enter a generic name/phrase, Hash It will generate the same password.
Instead, Hash It developer advises you to use custom-made passphrases. So as long as your phrases are really weird/unique, Hash It will continue to generate special passwords.
