To move your data from Apple Passwords into Dashlane, you have two options:

If you have an Apple computer or mobile device using macOS 26 or iOS 26 or later, you can quickly and securely move your data directly from Apple Passwords using Credential Exchange.
Otherwise, you can export a CSV file from Apple Passwords and import the file to Dashlane.

Note: Apple now calls its password manager Passwords. If you have an older Mac and iOS device, your password manager might still be called iCloud Keychain.
