Manage the devices you've added to Dashlane – Dashlane

When you use Dashlane for the first time on a new device, we ask you to take an extra step to confirm that you're the person logging in. In addition to entering your Master Password, you'll use an email verification code, a 2-factor authentication (2FA) token. Or, in some cases, you can use a QR code to prove that the device belongs to you. We sometimes call this step "authenticating" your device or adding an "authorized device."

Use Dashlane on a new device

After you log in on a device for the first time, we add the phone, tablet, or browser you’re using to a list of devices connected to your account. The next time you log in to Dashlane on that device, you skip the authorization step. Instead, you'll enter your Master Password directly or use your face, fingerprint, or PIN code to access your account, depending on your settings.

You can view and manage the devices connected to your account in any Dashlane app and check when each device was added and last used. You can also remove any device from the list of devices connected to your account. After you remove a device or "revoke access," you'll have to complete the authorization step the next time you log in to Dashlane on that device.

Tip: Revoking access is a good idea if you logged in on someone else's device or a device you no longer use.

What if I don't want a device to be connected to my account?

You can remove any device from your list of added devices, a process called "revoking access." When you revoke access to a device, your data is removed from that device. The next time you log in to Dashlane on that device, you'll need to use an email verification code, 2FA token, or QR code in addition to your Master Password.

Revoke access to devices

I received an email saying I added a new device, but I don't remember adding it. What do I do?

We notify you by email when you add a new device. If you don't remember logging in on a new device, keep in mind that we send emails saying you've added a new device in these situations:

After you clear your browser's cache or delete your cookies and log in again
After you reinstall Dashlane

If you're still worried about the email you received, you can take steps to secure your account. You can revoke access to a device, change your Master Password, or turn on 2-factor authentication (2FA).
