I use KeeWeb[1]. Works well, it's able to sync the encrypted database on many cloud/web services, and it's based on KeePass. So even if the app stops being updated or even exists, I remain in control of my password database and can switch without having to convert anything. I use KeePass2Android[2] as well, which can be set as an AutoFill provider.

+1 I used Password Safe for more than 10 years, and the developers are top notch and really into their security. I eventually moved to KeePass just because I wanted to store attachments but if that's not a deal breaker Password Safe is awesome.

No need to say more - pwsafe is the real deal! I use it on Android and Linux - synchronize either manually with Google Drive or automatically with DropBox. It's an awesome application!

What I realy like about password safe is that you can drag passwords into text boxes. Most password manager copy your password into the clipboard where every local application can access it. With drag and drop only the designated application will be getting the password.

An application capable of reading the clipboard is just as capable of covertly taking screenshots, recording keystrokes and otherwise compromising data being executed in the context of the same system user. Is gives a false sense of security guarding the clipboard when the real threat is untrustworthy (usually closed-source and proprietary) software itself, executed as a user with privileges.
