The biggest upgrade in the history of Steganos Password Manager.

Rebuilt from the ground up for Windows, iOS and Android. Your passwords, your keychains, your workflow will carry over in just a few minutes.

Why Password Manager 26 is a fresh installation – not just an update

Password Manager 26 is a completely new application, not a patch on top of the old one. That’s why it won’t install itself automatically: you download it once, open your existing keychain, and it’s converted for you.

The centerpiece of this generation is encryption. Your keychains have always been protected by strong 256-bit AES encryption – that protection is intact and remains trustworthy today. But cryptography is a field that never stands still, and Password Manager 26 adopts a new-generation encryption architecture built to withstand the attacks of the next decades, including dramatically hardened protection against brute-force attempts on your master password.

Converting your keychain to this new format is a one-time step. The guide below walks you through it – on Windows first, then on your smartphone or tablet.

Download and install Password Manager 26 on your PC

Upgrade for free

Password Manager 26 installs as a separate application, you don’t need to uninstall anything first.
Start Password Manager 26 and open your default keychain

Open the new app and unlock your keychain with your master password as usual. Your keychain is automatically converted to the new encryption format – a one-time step. Your entries, categories and settings come along; nothing to re-enter.

From this point on, work exclusively in Password Manager 26: the conversion is one-way, and changes are not synced back to the old version.
Connect your cloud provider

If you sync your keychain via Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, MagentaCLOUD or another cloud service, reconnect it now so your devices stay in sync.
Install Password Manager 26 on your smartphone

The mobile apps have been rebuilt as well, and remain free to use with your license. They’re a massive upgrade in every respect, bringing your smartphone to full feature parity with the Windows version for the first time.
Connect your cloud provider on mobile, too

Sign in to the same cloud service on your smartphone and your converted keychain appears automatically.
Set up biometric unlock and AutoFill

For the best experience, enable Face ID / fingerprint unlock and activate AutoFill in your phone’s settings. Your passwords are then filled in directly in apps and browsers – without typing your master password every time.
Browser extensions update automatically

Your Chrome, Edge and Firefox extensions update themselves to generation 26. No action needed.
Do you use more than one keychain?

Convert your additional keychains in Password Manager 26 via File → Start → I already have a Keychain. Each keychain is converted the first time you open it, same one-time step as your default keychain.
Done? Uninstall the old version

Once everything is up and running on all your devices, uninstall Password Manager 22 on Windows, iOS and Android. This completes the move. From now on, Password Manager 26 is your single home for all your passwords.
