Hi,
is it possible to uninstall Apples Passwords App on macos. I dont want to use it and store security relevant Objects in iCloud Keychain. I have allready another Password Manager. So is it possible to completely remove this app or stop it from importing Objects from other installed Password Manager?

If the App ist removed. Would it also be possible to reinstall it in future?

Best Regards,
MOM20xx
 
It's not possible (unless a lot of hacking around that needs to be redone each time after every update).

It's basically a Keychain frontend anyway; it shares the database with Keychain (it is not copying over data from Keychain). But yeah, you can't easily remove the bundled apps, and they'd just come back when you apply a macOS update.
