Most of us want our loved ones to have access to our online identities and data stores and the vital information they hold if we’re injured, lost, or dead.
DASHLANE REVIEW FULL
Items can be shared read-only or with full edit rights.Įmergency access is a major selling point for many password management services.
DASHLANE REVIEW FREE
Paid users get unlimited sharing with other Dashlane accounts, while free users can share up to five items with any given account. If you need TOTP codes alongside your passwords, try Bitwarden, 1Password, or a KeePass-compliant password manager instead.
DASHLANE REVIEW ANDROID
On the subject of TOTP, Dashlane doesn’t provide integrated TOTP code generation, although it does have a stand-alone authenticator available fore Android and iOS.
If you want a second authentication factor to your Dashlane vault access, it supports TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) authenticators and pre-generated recovery codes. As you’d expect, the mobile apps also support biometric unlock. However, all of this only works in Chromium-based browsers, so Firefox users will definitely need to look elsewhere.
Unusually, the web app does allow you to unlock it using passwordless systems such as FIDO/WebAuthn security keys (the only passwordless option available for Linux users), and biometrics via Touch ID on macOS, or Windows Hello. Its interface is perfectly decent – it doesn’t look amazing, but it’s fine, even though it doesn’t compare to the highly polished user experiences offered by 1Password or NordPass. This is fine, although I generally prefer having a desktop app on hand for filling in non-web passwords without needing to have my web browser open, even if it’s just a glorified web app in an Electron wrapper. By default, web vault and extensions are automatically logged out when you close your browser.
DASHLANE REVIEW PLUS
The usual range of browser extensions is available, plus a web app that you can just keep open in a browser as needed. There are broad categories for logins, payment cards, secure notes, personal info and IDs, with more granular subcategories to ensure that the right form fields are available for your driving licence or bank account.ĭashlane no longer provides desktop apps, at a time when many of its rivals are increasingly doing so. Paying users get 1GB of encrypted storage that you can use to attach files to entries. Biometric support for Touch ID and Windows Hello.Paid users get unlimited sharing with other Dashlane accounts.At the time of writing, new users can claim six months of Dashlane Premium for free. Pricing is a little more expensive than most rivals (and a lot more expensive than Bitwarden), but is by no means unreasonable. Subscriptions include dark web breach monitoring for up to five email addresses, and a rebranded VPN service provided by Hotspot Shield. If you want to subscribe, you can pay monthly or annually. However, it does let free users share items with as many other Dashlane accounts as they like, up to a maximum of five shared items with each person. Pricingĭashlane’s free tier isn’t as generous as some rivals when it comes to the number of passwords you can store – just 50, and it only allows access from a single device. Storage 1GB encrypted attachment or secure file storage for paid subscribersĭashlane is a password manager of good and longstanding reputation that’s recently moved to a web-first model.īoth free and paid-for accounts are available, but the free account limits the number of passwords you can store and the number of devices from which you can access them.Sharing The paid version offers unlimited sharing with other Dashlane accounts you can share up to five items with each account with the free version.Security Dashlane encrypts your data using AES-256 and provides different options for the key derivation function, with Argon2d as default.
