Question 1

What is a password manager?

Accepted Answer

A password manager is computer software or an app on your device where you can
securely store your logins and passwords, making it faster and easier to use the
internet. Using a password manager means you don’t have to remember multiple
passwords or keep them written down anywhere. It protects your information by
encrypting it so that no one else can access it and/ helps you create unique
passwords to protect yourself online.

Question 2

Is Proton Pass secure?

Accepted Answer

Proton Pass protects your passwords with proven end-to-end encryption
technology, so your data isn’t available to anyone but you. Everything you save,
including your usernames, web addresses, and passwords are protected. Learn more
about the security behind Pass [/pass/security].

Question 3

I already use my browser to remember my passwords (Chrome, iCloud Keychain,
etc.). Why is Proton Pass better?

Accepted Answer

Chrome and iCloud Keychain can store and autofill passwords, but Proton Pass is
a real password manager that does much more: you can organize your logins and
passwords into vaults and share passwords with secure links. You can also create
identities by saving details such as your name, address, and passport details,
making it easier to shop online and fill out forms. Pass also works
cross-platform – you don’t have to use a specific operating system or device to
install it. That means you can access your account easily and autosync your
passwords and logins from any of your devices.

Question 4

Does Proton Pass work on my iPhone or Android phone?

Accepted Answer

Proton Pass is available on iOS and Android. It’s also available on Windows,
macOS, Linux, a web app(new window) [https://pass.proton.me/], and extensions
for all major browsers.

Question 5

I already use another password manager. How can I easily switch to Proton Pass?

Accepted Answer

It only takes a few clicks to start using Pass:

* create a Proton Pass account
 * transfer all your existing passwords from your previous password manager by
   exporting them as a CSV [/support/pass-import-1password]
 * import all of your logins and passwords directly into Proton Pass.
