Thanks for sharing, this is indeed a great feature and makes GOS even stronger! Just enabled and love it!

For the home screen, I keep the regular PIN, so I have to type instead of using fingertips. But for apps that requires authentication (after you are already logged in), it’s really convenient use fingertips instead of the pin for convenience.

For native sync, the two good and reputable alternatives are Bitwarden and Proton Pass

I’ve been using Ecosia, it’s basically Google results, but with more privacy, and they invest the revenue in tree-planting projects.

so I’m thinking of exporting my passwords to another safe place for such cases.

I’m also using ProtonPass, and I agree it’s a game changer. I love the interface, the Android app is amazing and well integrated.

To not be locked in into ProtonPass in case of real disaster, once a month I export the ProtonPass data and import to KeepassXC in my local machine. It’s pretty easy, you just have to export to CSV, and import into KeepassXC, the interface will help you to map the CSV fields accordingly, and you will have a local accessible backup in case of disaster. Don’t forget to remove the CSV from your computer after importing to KeepassXC.
