Features
Vaults
Saved logins are grouped into vaults, and the Proton plan comparison lists vaults as included across the tiers it shows.
Unlimited devices
The plan comparison lists unlimited devices, so one Proton account covers a phone, a browser and a desktop machine at the same time.
Credential sharing
The plan comparison includes a 'Share with up to' row alongside vaults and devices, so sharing capacity is set by the tier chosen.
Dark Web Monitoring
Dark Web Monitoring appears in the Proton plan comparison among the features included with an account.
What users say
Pros
- Migrating a whole 1Password vault takes only a couple of minutes and a few clicks.
- Email aliases are generated in a single click from the browser or phone for new sign-ups.
- Passkeys on Android work reliably, including on setups where other managers kept failing.
- The free tier syncs passwords between a browser, a Chromebook and an Android phone without paying.
- Sharing a login or a whole vault with another person takes a few taps, with no organization setup.
Cons
- The browser extension and Android app are buggy, with unreliable autofill, forgotten settings and random logouts.
- Importing a Bitwarden vault on Android failed, and card details were rejected with no error message.
- The browser extension cannot be driven fully by keyboard, and the separate extra password the old app asked for is gone.
- Confidence in the product dropped after the company's public push for AI-generated code and lighter security review.
