1. Control: With a local password manager, you have complete control over your data.
Your passwords and other sensitive information are stored locally on your device,
and you are responsible for keeping them secure.
This means that you don't have to rely on a third-party service to protect your data.
2. Security: While online password managers may use strong encryption to protect your data,
they are still vulnerable to online attacks. For example, if the online password manager's
server is compromised, your data could be exposed. With a local password manager, your
data is not connected to the internet, so it's much harder for a hacker to access it.
3. Accessibility: Local password managers are accessible offline, which means you can access your
passwords and other information even when you don't have an internet connection. This can be
especially useful when you're traveling or in a location with poor connectivity.
4. Privacy: Some people are uncomfortable with the idea of storing their sensitive information
in the cloud. With a local password manager, you don't have to worry about your data being
accessed or analyzed by third-party services.
