Proton Pass: Free Password Manager

Shows nag screens asking user to rate the extension.

I'm tired of having the paid version and getting annoying pop ups in the worst moments possible.... they are intrusive, they create a bad user experience... stop. And yes, I wrote this cause the review pop up got in my way

I can't figure out how to use this!! I stupidly made an alias for a shopping site and now I can't figure out how to disable the alias. You'd think that clicking "Disable Alias" would do the trick. Nope!! I got a message saying that my ACTUAL e-mail would be sent to the shopping site requesting to unsubscribe. HUH?? So I tried deleting the alias in the extension. But the message I got said that "the alias would still continue to forward emails while it's in the trash." HUH?? So then I tried to find the trash and delete the alias from the trash. There is no trash!!! What a hot mess!! It's almost as disappointingly useless as Simple Login, which constantly tells me I can't make anymore logins because I haven't paid for the service, even though I **have** paid for it--a ton of money apparently just thrown away. Proton has become such a dumpster fire. Nothing works, nothing makes sense, instructions are gibberish, and they keep taking my money.

Very user unfriendly.

This is the worst password manager I've ever seen. The email alias is cool. But it lacks extremely basic features that every other manager has. It's horrible at recognizing login fields. And they added a really frustrating "leave us a review popup" that will move the "copy email/password" buttons down when it pops up a split second after you open the menu. And the button doesn't even take you to this page, it takes you to the proton vpn extension page.

Garbage

It started out okay a few weeks ago when I began using it. It isn't as easy and responsive as others I've used, but since I bought into the whole Proton ecosystem, I went with it. However, as of today, the Chrome extension no longer works. It no longer automatically pops up to autofill on saved sites, and when I click the icon in my extensions bar, it brings up a black box (looks like it never finished loading). I've removed and reinstalled it, and it's still happening.

Proton Password Manager was extraordinarily difficult to install. I didn't know how to follow the instructions. If what I have done leaves it unworkable I will have to have to uninstall it.

Too many issues.I'm deleting it.

Doesn't yet let me autocomplete credit card details, but constantly pops up requests to change to/from dark mode or rate the addin. Far too much nagging for this extension.

doesn't work well, instructions for all Proton apps are very complex. After spending lots of time to install and set up finally I go to a website and proton pass does not work, I have to use my passoword file to retrieve the password manually. I think I will unistall Proton Pass

Proton Pass is "Protected" by a simple six digit code only. You put in the 6 digit, and your complete password collection is open for viewing and access. OK, after three error inputs, you are locked out and need the master password to unlock. But if the one who tries is lucky, good night security. In my opinion, THIS IS NOT SECURE AT ALL, I consider it even as dangerous! To mention: the option to set up an extra password on top of the 6 digit is not working reliably, just random. Why not implement the option of setting up vaults with extra strong layer of security, e.g. for bank account and passwords that need extra protection? P.S.: Using payed version of Proton pass plus!

Not working on some page on which other passwords manager like Bitwarden / 1Password etc works without problem.

Doesn't work at all for the last couple days.

This just popped up an ad when I was using it. No matter how good the rest of the extension is, showing ads in a service I already pay for is unjustifiable.

Not working well on all website, card info no autofill.

Works 90% of the time. But if you know anything about pass holders you know that this 10% is unacceptable

I loved the idea of replacing LastPass with Proton Pass, but I had to disable the extension because it stopped me from being able to enter text manually in a username/password field on a particular web site.

It keeps disconnecting and asking for my password. What do I have to think if the component that holds all my password keeps disconnecting me and asking me to insert the password over and over again? Is it secure? I don't know.

It keeps disconnecting me.

Proton Pass stores wrong passwords.

Terrible interface. I have been using Proton Pass with my entire Proton Package for a little over a year. It is absolutely useless! Currently I am trying to do a simple set up of a new account, and Proton pass, despite being an extension in my browser doesn't recognize the new website, so I need to go into the extension to set it up myself and even then, it doesn't fill it in automatically. It is seriously flawed! And Proton Pass doesnt' have support so you are essentially out of luck and if you go to their website, the first thing you see in big bold letters is how to sign up to get their package. I already HAVE their package. Why don't they separate those people who are users from those who are trying to sign up!!!??? Seriously messed up.

The service is pretty good, but still a little immature. There is a lot of polish needed. The service would realistically get 4 starts, but the fact that it puts up a "rete us" add in the password manager repeatedly is super annoying. It seems to pop in just as I'm about to click to copy something, which causes the field to move around and i copy the wrong field. Update 2/2026 - came back to give it another 1 star rating for popping up a 'rate us' banner..... come on

Please note: works only with proton mail, lol.

I like it but they bugged me by asking for a rating Is my money not enough?

It stopped working in Vivaldi 7.3.3635.14 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit). A re-installation didn't change anything. It still does work in Chrome.

Needs A LOT of work. More sites than i can count the form is not recognised. Login forms are simple to identify, roboform has been doing it since 2006/7, Bitwarden has been doing it since... a long time. Whats up with your devs Proton, they unable to complete their task as you're left with a half working product? Many login forms the PP extension DOES DETECT have to have double/triple refresh to have the login options appear. I use, Chrome, Brave, Firefox, same across all. Shame as this IS way better than Bitwarden, responsive. It just does not work reliably. Unbelievable. And the owners of Proton want people to subscribe? Fix your products..

Proton Pass was sweet for the first few weeks (i had issues with last pass being a ressource hog) but using it now for a while and having my passwords mostly imported from last pass .. there are tons of things which dont properly work and very often i am forced to go back to lastpass cause Proton either imported the wrong stuff, old stuff or nothing related at all. the password filling of Proton is not awesome as well ... First impression was awesome after using it a while it turns into a nightmare

False advertising. During this morning's Proton server outage, offline access to your credentials did not work at all, with or without the PIN lock. This seriously affected my ability to do my job. Inexcusable.

Nah. I am moving to Mullvad, Tuta, etc. Proton has given up IP info to the French government, so what's to stop this from continuing? The CEO is also a trump supporter, and that's enough for me to not support the org.

there's better password managers out there. 1password, built in password managers, ...

Very frustrating so far. Not well thought out. Too difficult to access passwords quickly, if you need to add manually and doesn't always work which is very dissappointing

Moved from chrome to brave, wow, every 10 mins Im getting a brave notification from proton to upgrade to family pass. How do I turn of notifications for proton without turning off notifications for brave?

Keeps logging out automatically. Have to re-install extension, clear cookies to re connect the account. It's a total mess. The UI is a little messy. Little size of the pop-up, large buttons, waste of space & too many clicks needed for everything. Edit: No, it's a new browser profile with no other extensions.

It does not detect websites sometimes and does not work

Doesn't recognize password or login fields in most websites, can't import from a CSV, SimpleLogin integration is weird and doesn't work as I had hoped, so needs lot of work to be able to replace the likes of 1Password or others

In the latest update, the app requested permission to modify my privacy settings and refused to work without it. Sp, I disabled it.

caused me to lose accounts due to losing 2fa codes

it stopped working, needs fixing patch, ASAP

Unauthorized charges to my account, didn't honour money back guarantee, charged twice the advertised price for an add-on service that I didn't agree to buy. Pro VPN stopped working after a month when I requested a refund, they didn't give the refund though. I had to do a chargeback, and then they my blocked my account, so can't access my free account now. They want me to pay access fees to get the passwords and emails in my account that I had for years on the free plan. Brilliant apps tho

latest update keep showing corrupted everytime the chrome browser is closed and then launched

When can support Simplified Chinese ah, very like the proton series of products!

How in hell do you expect me to pin the damn thing when I see no active link or button to execute this? Get back to your drawing board and make this a human doable process.

I like proton Mail I believe Proton is a clean safe app BUT! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS EXTENSION??????????????????????????? I click on the extension Icon to validate a login but the window keeps shrinking into oblivion ????????????????? FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't uninstall it from lemur browser. What a joke

Autofill doesn't work well. Bitwarden is much more stable, with the command 'Cmd+Shift+L' to fill the login fields very fast.

I have used most of the browser based password managers in my time, and this is almost the worst. It rarely suggests to add logins, occasionally will not display the popup to fill in passwords (its primary job?), is difficult to navigate, and most tasks take 1 to a few more steps to complete than competing products. Its free though, so I digress. By the way, I've been an Enterprise Java software engineer with a background in IT security (CISSP) for almost 25 years, so its not like this is my first time using a browser plugin. Security, on the other hand, appears to be great, and in some cases, excessively secure for the average user--which is a good quality to have in a PW manager, I guess.

This extension comes with only a dark theme, which I find uncomfortable to read even on my regular screens, and impossible to read when projecting my desktop (which I frequently do). I would have loved to use Proton Pass and pay for PP Plus or even Unlimited if only the theme was not so uncomfortable to read.

A year later, still not ready for prime time. This still lacks many of the basic features found in other password managers. I'm a big fan of Proton and wanted so badly to like Proton Pass, but even after using it for almost a year, since it first was released, it still just is not ready. It very often doesn't identify login fields on a lot of sites. So many that I got tired of continuing to report them, and never seeing them fixed. It frequently still misses picking up login/password info for new accounts. The workaround they tell you to do is go back into the generated password history, copy the password, and manually create a new entry. That is a terrible workflow. It almost never manages to catch and update if I manually change a password. It doesn't handle credit card numbers the way other managers do. Yes, you can save a credit card number in the vault. But you can't auto-fill any of them. You have to manually copy them. Maximum password length is still limited to 64 characters - why? It makes no sense. Something focused on security should not have such an arbitrary limit. It still doesn't have offline access. So you can't store any passwords that you use for local device access, because you need to be online. This thing has been "release" status for almost a year, and it still can't hold a candle to any of the other password managers. And Proton is notoriously slow at fixing anything or implementing new features. It is going to take years before this is ready for daily use.
