## What it is
QtPass is a multi-platform GUI front-end for pass, the standard Unix password manager, built with Qt. It manages GPG-encrypted password stores with Git syncing, TOTP support, password generation, and smartcard/YubiKey integration.

## Use cases
- manage pass password store with a GUI
- generate strong passwords with configurable complexity
- sync passwords across devices using git
- store one-time password (TOTP) codes alongside logins
- use a YubiKey or OpenPGP smartcard for password encryption
- share encrypted password folders with multiple recipients
- avoid vendor lock-in with a plain-file GPG password vault

## When to choose
- you already use or want to adopt the standard unix pass password manager
- you want a cross-platform GUI on Linux, macOS, Windows, or FreeBSD
- you prefer GPG-encrypted plain files and git-based syncing over cloud password managers
- you need TOTP, smartcard, or multi-recipient encryption support

## When to avoid
- you want a self-contained password manager without installing gpg2 (and ideally git/pass)
- you need browser autofill or mobile apps as first-class features
- you prefer a cloud-synced, turnkey solution like Bitwarden

## Facets
- artifact type: application
