Making Your Decision
When to Choose iCloud Keychain
Apple-only users who want seamless, free password management without installing third-party apps
iCloud Keychain excels within the Apple ecosystem with tight integration and strong hardware security. However, its limited cross-platform support makes it unsuitable for users with mixed devices.
Strengths
- Completely free and built into Apple devices
- Secure Enclave hardware protection on supported devices
- Seamless autofill across Safari and iOS apps
- Passkey support with biometric authentication
Limitations
- Very limited Windows support via iCloud app
- No native Android or Linux support
- No secure notes or document storage
When to Choose Sticky Password
Users who want local-only sync and support wildlife conservation
Sticky Password offers unique local Wi-Fi sync and a feel-good conservation mission, though its dated interface and limited features make it a niche choice.
Strengths
- Lifetime license available for one-time payment
- Local Wi-Fi sync option (no cloud required)
- Biometric authentication support
- Portion of proceeds goes to manatee conservation
Limitations
- Interface design feels outdated
- Smaller development team than major competitors
- Limited advanced features
