Brief Summary

Hello KeePassXC developers,

I am a user of KeePassXC and I'm grateful for your efforts in developing this application. I'd like to propose two enhancements that I believe would significantly improve the user experience.

First, I am encountering an issue with how the app handles URI links. Currently, KeePassXC merges all URI links within an entry into a single field, making them indistinguishable and un-clickable. This prevents users from directly accessing the corresponding web pages and requires manual copy-pasting. To address this, I suggest:

Support Multi-Line Display of URIs: Each URI link should be displayed on a separate line for easier viewing and distinction.

Enable Clickable Links: Users should be able to directly click on links to navigate to the corresponding web pages without manually copying and pasting.

Second, given the increasing adoption of passkeys, I suggest an enhancement for passkey management. It would greatly improve the ease of use if KeePassXC could:

Display Passkeys Prominently: Passkeys should be displayed in a clear and accessible location, ideally on the main page when an entry with a passkey is selected. This would allow users to see at a glance if a specific account uses a passkey, and quickly access the details.

This could be an icon or a specific field dedicated to showing the passkey and allow copying it.

This combined enhancement (URI handling and passkey display) would significantly improve KeePassXC's usability and make it even more convenient for users who manage multiple accounts with various login methods.

Here are some ideas on how these could be implemented:

Adopt a UI Similar to Other Applications: Display each URI on a separate line with clickable functionality, and show passkey information in an obvious place on the entry details page.

Allow Special Character Separators: Allow users to use specific characters to separate URI links, then render them on separate lines.

Add Specific URI and Passkey Field Types: Create dedicated “URI” and “Passkey” type fields, which the system can recognize and display appropriately.

I look forward to seeing these improvements in future KeePassXC updates. Thank you for your dedication and hard work!

Example

1.uri is currently available on Bitwarden

2.The passkey is also placed in a prominent position on the iOS built-in password software

Context

  1. The URI branch allows me to click the corresponding link in the password manager to go to the target website, but clicking the URI at this stage does not normally go to the corresponding website.

  2. Putting the passkey in a conspicuous place is obviously for easy finding.
