Prerequisites
In order to use this feature, you must have the following:
- An iPhone with the latest version of Dashlane installed
- An Apple Watch running on watchOS 6.2 and above
- Successfully paired your iPhone with your Apple Watch
- Your Dashlane iOS app successfully set up as your authenticator app for one or more of your accounts
How it works
After setting up your accounts, open the Dashlane application on your Apple Watch.
From there, locate the account you're logging in to. These six-digit security codes will refresh every 30 seconds. Note that the codes will only display if you are logged into your Dashlane account on your iPhone. The codes will still display if you lock your Dashlane application or your iPhone, but if you log out of Dashlane on your iPhone, the codes will no longer be visible.
