Password managers for the blind (self.Blind)
submitted 5.313768872170782y ago by emwells
Hey r/blind! I help manage my uncle's online accounts and keeping a notepad of all his passwords just isn't cutting it. Are there any password managers you guys use that would be helpful for him? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Keypass user checking in, it works great with screen readers.

Ditto 1password. They have a good record of keeping the app accessible across all platforms.

I use 1 Password quite a bit on iOS and Mac, and a bit on Windows. It does a great job of keeping passwords synced and generating new ones, and I wouldn't want to go back to doing so on my own.

iCloud keychain works well if you’re in the Apple ecosystem.

I use and highly recommend LastPass! I've used it since January of last year and haven't had any accessibility issues with it whatsoever.

It works perfectly for me!

I used lastpass too but doesn’t seem to be very accessible for the visually impaired.

You'd be wrong about that actually. Everything can be accessed through the context/right\-click menu. Everything you'd need that is, you can generate passwords and autofill, etc.

Is their mobile app helpful? Uncle mostly needs password management for his phone. He’s taking classes to use his Mac computer but I think he mostly does stuff on his phone at this point.

Oh I've never used that one. Lol I only use my phone for texting and ocasional video surfing.
