After you set up your Dashlane account, the next step is adding logins and keeping them updated. Logins appear in alphabetical order in your vault.
Add logins to Dashlane
You can add new logins to your account in three different ways.
Import your logins
You can import your logins from a different password manager or another Dashlane account. If you have an Android device, you can also import directly from Chrome.
Add logins as you browse the web
Note: To save logins as you browse the web, make sure you've installed and logged in to the Dashlane extension.
Install and pin the Dashlane extension
Log in to the Dashlane extension
You can save new logins to your account as you browse the web. Every time you log in to a new site, Dashlane asks if you want to save the login for future use. If you already have a login for that site saved in Dashlane, we ask if you want to create an additional login or update your existing login.
If you save more than one login for the same website, Dashlane asks which login you want to use whenever you log in. If you have several suggested items in your list, select the magnifying glass icon to filter the items and quickly choose the correct information.
