Get started with Bramble

Install Bramble on your devices, create your vault and save your recovery code.

Bramble has no account to sign up for. You create a vault on one device, protect it with a master password, then add your other devices to it.

Install Bramble

Where What to install
Chrome, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi, Opera, Arc The extension from the Chrome Web Store
Firefox, Zen, LibreWolf, Waterfox The extension from Firefox Add-ons
iPhone Bramble Password Manager from the App Store
Android The signed APK from Bramble’s releases on GitHub. It doesn’t need Google Play.
Your computer The desktop app. See Install the desktop app.

Install Bramble wherever you want your passwords. You create a vault once, on the first device. Every other device joins that vault.

Create your vault

  1. Open Bramble and choose Create your vault. The browser extension opens this in a new tab.
  2. Stay on Create new vault.
  3. Enter a Master password, then type it again under Confirm master password.
  4. Choose Create vault.

Your master password needs at least 8 characters. If Bramble says it’s weak, pick a longer one, or tick Use this password anyway. A long phrase of a few unrelated words is strong and easy to remember.

Save your recovery code

Next, Bramble shows Save your recovery code. You won’t see this code again.

  1. Choose Copy or Download, or write the code down.
  2. Keep it somewhere safe and offline, away from your devices.
  3. Choose I’ve saved it, continue.

Your vault opens, ready for your first item. In the browser extension, close the tab and open Bramble from the toolbar.

Lost the code? Make a new one in Settings → Security on each of your devices. See Ways to unlock your vault.

On your other devices

Don’t create a new vault on each device. Install Bramble, choose Create your vault, then switch to the Join a device tab and pair it with the device that has your vault. See Add a device.
