Using Proton Pass

You can share your Proton Pass passwords and other items (such as email aliases, notes, and credit cards) via their vault with anyone. This feature is called Password Sharing. 

Within the shared vault, you can decide which permission the other person can have. Password Sharing lets you decide whether to let others view, edit, or manage the items in your Proton Pass account, and you can change these permissions anytime.

To share items in Proton Pass, you can either share their current vault or create a new vault and move the items you want to share there. The number of vaults you can share depends on your Proton Pass plan:

  • Proton Pass Free: Create and share up to two vaults, with up to three people per vault (including yourself)
  • Any paid Proton Pass plan: Create and share up to 50 vaults, with up to 10 people per vault (including yourself)

How to accept a shared vault

If you’ve been invited to access a Proton Pass vault and don’t have a Proton Pass account yet, you’ll receive an email inviting you to create a free Proton Pass account.

If you’ve been invited to access a Proton Pass vault, and you’re already a Pass user, you’ll receive a notification inside the Proton Pass app or browser extension. To accept the invite on iOS, iPadOS, or Android, tap the notification → Join shared vault.
