You can rename your vaults, but you can also assign them one of a few dozen icons, as well as choose from a handful of color presets. It\u2019s a small addition, but a little color-coding goes a long way in finding what you need at a glance.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Beyond logins, you can also generate and store email aliases, similar to NordPass. It\u2019s a standard feature, even if you don’t subscribe. Free users are capped at 10 aliases, while paying users can create as many as they want.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just a fake email tied to a real one. You can set up aliases like that, but Proton allows you to forward emails to multiple addresses, create catch-all addresses, and even reply directly from the web app. I appreciate the activity log most, though. Proton automatically creates contacts for everyone who interacts with your alias, and you can block spammy addresses without ever opening your email client.<\/p>\n

No Desktop App<\/h2>\n

Proton Pass was originally available only as a browser extension, but it now has apps for Windows, macOS, and even Linux, as long as you\u2019re on a Fedora- or Debian-based distribution. I mainly used Pass in the browser, not only because it\u2019s convenient but also because the extension is available on just about everything\u2014Chromium-based browsers have access, and there are separate extensions for Firefox, Safari, and Brave.<\/p>\n

The browser app has everything you need, and it works a treat when it comes to password capture and autofill. Proton occasionally asked me to save a password a second time after initially dismissing a capture notification. But outside of that small hiccup, I never encountered an issue with autofill for forms, logins, or credit cards.<\/p>\n

Inside the app, you have a few features that aren\u2019t available through the extension. The key feature is Pass Monitor, which is Proton\u2019s security watchdog feature. It\u2019ll show you weak passwords, accounts where you can enable 2FA, and critically, accounts that have been victims of a data breach. If you want to go further, you can turn on Proton Sentinel<\/a>, as well.<\/p>\n

Pass Monitor is great, but breach notifications have a problem. By default, Proton only monitors the email associated with your Proton account. If you\u2019re importing passwords from another app, as I did, and you have different emails, those aren\u2019t a part of the monitoring by default. And Proton doesn\u2019t tell you that. You have to click into breach details and manually add addresses.<\/p>\n
