Do you have any ideas for a password safe that stores its data locally (an encrypted cloud drive is available for synchronizing), offers clients for Linux, Win and Android and has some amenities like filling in passwords in browsers?

My family needs to learn password safety, and I want to make it easy for them.

Been using Keepass, and it seems like a solid choice for local password vault. It's not as convenient at other vaults like bitwarden (unless there's a browser extension i could use), and i dont know how the android side of it looks.

There is a browser extension, but you don't really need it.

Keepass has a "global auto type" hotkey. If your entries are saved with the correct info, all you have to do is press the hotkey for global auto type and keepass selects the correct entry and types username/password automatically.

Besides what shadeless@discuss.tchncs.de said: try KeePassHttp
