Important: When updating the password for a login saved in Dashlane, make sure to save the new password both in the Dashlane app and on the website for the login.

When you've stored a login in Dashlane and change your password for that login on their website or in their app, we automatically ask if you want to update the login in your Dashlane vault. You can also update logins directly in your Dashlane vault, but make sure to change the password on the login's website or app as well.
