How to turn on biometric login

If you have a paid Proton Pass account, you can use biometric authentication to unlock Pass on Windows. Biometric authentication is available for mobile on both free and paid plans.
To enable biometric login for Pass, select ⚙ Settings → Security

In the Unlock with section, choose Biometrics.

Follow the steps to add your biometric login, and you’ll receive a prompt at the bottom of your screen that you’ve been successful.

Next time you sign into Proton Pass, you’ll see this screen.

Click Unlock and use your fingerprint to log in. You’ll then be prompted to allow Proton Pass to use your fingerprint reader.

How to import passwords to Proton Pass

If you’ve used a password manager before, the first thing you probably want to do is import your logins from it.

And that’s it! You can now easily access your saved passwords, notes, hide-my-email aliases, and credit card details from the convenience of a desktop app.
