The one issue I had with Keepass is that on iOS (and this is Apple's fault!) it is not possible to choose different cloud storage providers to keep the password database file on.

This silly thing alone would preclude me ever buying an iOS device! (My wife ran into it when I tried to get her up and running with Keepass, she gave up...)

I love keepass's simplicity, no browser plugins with pop up dialog boxes or UIs that conflict with the browser's own password management, just, a list of accounts and passwords.

It’s not Apple’s fault as it’s possible to change the cloud storage to store your password with 1Password for iOS.

Plenty of iOS apps offer multiple cloud storage solutions.

In fact, iOS's own Files app can be used to access different cloud providers (I have iCloud, Dropbox and Google drive set up).

Do you have any good references pointing to Apple limiting Keepass in that regard?
