No Internet? No Problem โ€” I Built a Simple, Secure Offline Password Manager (Built in Python)

๐Ÿ”’ The World Is Online, But Your Passwords Donโ€™t Have to Be

Most password managers either:

  • Lock your data behind monthly subscriptions
  • Store your credentials in the cloud
  • Collect more data than they should

So I built something different: a fully offline password manager, lightweight, fast, and secure โ€” built in Python using PyQt5.


๐Ÿ’ก Why I Made It

I wanted a tool that:

  • Doesn't require signing up or logging in
  • Generates strong passwords instantly
  • Stores them in a local file for full control
  • Lets me know why I created each password

So I made it. Then I polished it. And now โ€” I'm selling it for just $2.99.


๐Ÿš€ Features

โœ… Generate strong, random passwords

โœ… Add a label like โ€œRedditโ€, โ€œPayPalโ€, โ€œNetflixโ€

โœ… Stores entries in a .txt file locally (nothing goes online)

โœ… One-click copy to clipboard

โœ… No cloud. No account. No spying. Just simplicity.

โœ… Runs on Windows (standalone .exe)


๐Ÿ’ป Built With

  • Python 3
  • PyQt5 for the GUI
  • pyperclip for clipboard
  • Packaged with pyinstaller

๐Ÿ“ฆ Try It Out

๐ŸŽฏ Download it here on Gumroad โ€” only $2.99 for lifetime access.

Iโ€™m an indie dev doing this solo โ€” if you're into privacy and simplicity, your support helps a ton.


๐Ÿ™Œ Iโ€™d Love Your Support

Even if youโ€™re not buying โ€” any feedback, shares, or comments would mean the world. If you think this kind of tool is valuable, help spread the word!

Letโ€™s take back some control from the cloud. ๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ”
